Trump is going to support a public option before the 2018 elections. And it will pass easily. That’s going to be his Obamacare reform.
I’m disappointed that no deal could be worked out. The savings is key to future tax and budgeting deals that I think would turn a lot of the general public in favor of Trump.
I understand some elements of the bill were not good but it was part one of three and bad elements could have been removed or amended later.
Let’s see somebody now start a bill that simply does repeal. And then they can do replace afterwards.
The Primaries are going to be killing fields. Time to reap the whirlwind.
Well, the purists got their way, and now we have Obamacare. If/when Obamacare goes under, the GOP might get the blame - especially if they fail to fund it. We don’t know what will happen in 2018 because if Republicans get blame for its failure or people feel they wasted their vote on Republicans because Republicans couldn’t govern and keep their promises, it may not get repealed then. If the Democrats get in, they’ll just shift goal posts to the left. Their goal is socialized medicine.
This is driving me nuts !
The narrative MUST be corrected at every opportunity...and WE have to do it here, also!
There were approx 10 Republican holdouts....BUT THERE WERE ALSO 193 DEMOCRATS (EVERY SINGLE DEMOCRAT MAN AND WOMAN IN THE HOUSE !!!!) WHO WOULD HAVE VOTED "NO".
All 193 Democrats AGAINST (a fact) plus an estimated 10 Republicans also AGAINST. Do the math !!! No way the bill would have passed.
President Trump rightly pulled it.
Stick the Democrats with the CrapobamaCare they love so much !!!
We must keep pounding on the fact that the united DEMOCRATS torpedoed the bill...and NOT A SINGLE ONE would have crossed over to support it.
I'm putting this factoid in my tag line so that freepers and other readers know and keep being reminded who REALLY deserves the blame when ObamaCare implodes down the pike....and all the Dem party faithful and all the uninformed gimmedats start crying over their out-of-sight health care bills and deductibles.

Does anyone care that Trump is a liar? He promised DAY ONE to repeal Obama-care. Okay, we all knew that would not happen, but now he is going around telling everyone he never said when he would do it?
Total lie.
Once again, I fell for a politicians lies. Trump is no better than the rest.
Ryan should be run out of town. Trump should not be allowed to lie to all of us. Another day in Washington DC. Nothing ever changes.
Another predicted disaster, that our stock market would take a huge hit if Ryancare didn’t make it got buried on Wall Street.

Actually, this was predicted by Fox Business, when they said what happened re Ryancare didn’t matter with the stock markets before the bill was pulled.
