Cornyn says flatly that health care will not be attempted again via reconciliation. "It's clear it needs to be done on a bipartisan basis."

Bipartisan? Yeah, that’s going to happen.

Sorry, but methinks we are witnessing the demise of the Republican Party.

Trump tried, but even a driven businessman cannot overcome the flock of ball-less sheep, all fighting to keep the only job that they can hold.

Following the Republican collapse, the only recourse is civil war.

Bet on it.

They only voted to repeal Obamacare when Obozo was in office because they were sure it would never get through. Now that Trump is there, all of a sudden they CAN’T repeal it? They know he would sign it, and the Repug-nicans want government control as much as the Dumb-ocraps do.

Bipartisan means compromise. But compromising with bad policy is like adding sewage to your drinking water.

“Another Senator who needs to go!”

Cornyn is the poster child for term limits. I have seen him go from someone to admire to someone to loathe in the last few years. We tried to get rid of him at the last primary, but he is too entrenched. Kay Bailey Hutchinson was the same before she finally retired. These people need to be told to move along after a couple of terms. Once they reach their expiration date, they start to stink.

Yup. I’m afraid the Trump Train has come to a standstill. It’s up to us to start firing RINOs to get it moving again.

Screw Reconciliation. Just Blow Up the 60 Vote “Byrd Rule”. It’s time to use the republican Majority however thin it may be. If they get things done between now and 2018 they will increase their majority. If however, they let the Democrats thwart them with the archaic 60 vote rule, they will only have themselves to blame.

Fine. Send any Obamacare bill through, so long as the House and Senate bills have differences. Send the two versions to a Conference Committee, and have them rewrite the changes completely so the final bill matches the one-line “Obamacare is repealed” bill. I’m okay with that.

Term limit them all out. And make it make it impossible to become fabulously wealthy while "serving". Did you ever wonder why a lawyer who could earn half a million a year without breaking a sweat would want a job in congress at $170k? Can you say "corruption"? I knew you could!

And they will be voted out in favor of their Dem challengers, as Dems actually do legislate. BAD legislation, but that is all we will be left with, when the Republicans roll over for the Left. And there will be no civil war as most will realize there is no point. Soros money all over the world, will help the Globalists take power and we will become ‘One World’. Sigh. (Please, Pubbies, don’t let this happen)

Coryn is a worthless rino. We’re going to end up with single payer because of traitors like him.

The news has become so negative lately that I’ve quit watching it except for giving Fox a chance to rectify the slant... every once in awhile. Most are just down and downer talking about my President. He is carrying out what the others have promised but not done... Transparency.. it seems to be out in the open for the media to criticize and condemn. obama promised it but did everything behind closed doors and then would come out and pretend.. the fake way turns out to be more successful in the climate we live in today. It’s disheartening.

Transparency has turned into our President is incapable, not smart enough, leaning left, and worse... He is the man I voted for... and they are showing him in the least favorable light they can... Trump has power to do.. I want him to DO things that get us past this nonsense that seems to be plaguing him since January. He can make things happen by his word.. he is the President.. Don’t let the media set the topics.. don’t let the dems run the show. We have the house.. the senate.. and the Presidency.. why in the world has the dems been controlling the happenings! Get the administration on the stick and get this show on the road!!!

The bastards ram it down our throats with billions in payoffs, threats, intimidation, straight party-line vote, parliamentary tricks and the bogus “reconciliation.”

Now we must play nice.

Doomed.

Precisely. It was easy to vote to repeal when Obama was President. That way, they could go home and say (mock tears) "Oh, we TRIED".

They knew it was all Kabuki Theater. But now that it's for real, suddenly it's not possible.
