Washington (CNN)Sen. Bernie Sanders and President Donald Trump seem to agree on one thing when it comes to the failure of the GOP health care bill: Blame the Democrats.

"Democrats should take credit for killing a really, really bad piece of legislation," the Independent senator from Vermont told CNN's Anderson Cooper on Friday night.

Yes, they forgot it, and when that piece of crap obamacare crashes and burns, they’ll blame it on republicans! They want to forget it.

So much for Bernie trying to take the Democrats down the “populist” route. The Green Mountain Phony! I sit by two snowflakes at work who go on and on about how Comrade Sanders is the real American hero that should have been president.

Well Bernie is half right. The UniParty is responsible for defeating the People of America.

Enjoy yesterday's vote, Obama, MSM, Peloser and Schmuckster! ObamaCare is going to implode when all the insurance companies pull out of ObamaCare. Then what?

When the rest of Obamacare collapses, I’ll be glad to give you all the credit you deserve for our present health insurance, Bern.

Stupid Dems, this was there last chance to actually save at lest part of Obama’s legacy.
You can bet the next versions are going to be way more conservative.
Stupid Dems should have voted for this but they are kind of like the Republicans they like to shoot themselves in the foot.

The GOP couldn’t come up with something credible. Yet.

It is a complex task. It won’t work to be purist about it, to just zap every trace of O’care and let the poor crippled monster that is the US healthcare model today flounder around on the floor while people don’t even know what to do.

Better a lousy way to see the doctor that everybody knows, than a wonderful way that almost nobody knows.

The beast is going to either have to be reconstructed, or to fail so bad that anything at all seems better than it is.

Good, let them. That makes them own Obamacare’s failures even more.

I really wish Ginsburg would hurry up and die so that we could get another mandate challenge back in court.

Bernie Sanders: Dems should get credit for killing AHCA

Blatant proof that Sanders is a SMALL MINDED thinker.

Still playing the "who won - who lost blame game."

They can happily take credit for killing the AHCS also, the American Health Care System. Next, they can joyously take credit for the decline and collapse of the AES, or the American Economic System.

Bernie? The man that pays a 13% tax rate? Seems this lying hypocrite would crawl into a hole by now.

One more time.

Learn the budget mechanisms.

Obamacare is fully funded. Its costs can increase and it will still be fully funded. Its costs can explode X1000 and it will still be fully funded. The bonds issued by Treasury to pay for such a thing could be Quantitative Ease funded by the Fed, if there were systemic risk.

This is perhaps the greatest flaw in the whole debate. The NO votes thought there would be the sanctuary of “implosion” or “explosion” or “collapse”. No such thing is possible. The funding is on autopilot.

You want to remove the funding? Get 60, or get Ryan’s bill.

It sounds like Bernie is working on his fourth house.

I didn’t want Ryancare either, but I believe it’s for different reasons. Bernie’s a sap.
