But they love Trump’s position on most of the issues.
I expect to lose the health care issue. I just do.
They voted in the Senate to defund Planned Parenthood. They had to bring one senator out of the hospital to vote for it. Collins and Snowe, I believe, voted against it, and Pence had to break the tie. This was a vote to have a vote or something like that, but I’m fairly certain that Murkowski said she’d vote against it, too.
So, we will lose defunding PP because of 3 senators.
We will lose a straight repeal of ObamaCare for the same reason: Murkowski, Snowe, Collins, Capita, and Portman won’t support because of PP and because of Medicaid grants to states.
It’s just a fact of life.
So, do we compromise to get rid of ObamaCare with something that’s not close to what we want but does end the taxes and mandates, or do we keep ObamaCare?
I think it’s a no-brainer, but I’m ok with half a sandwich instead of ZERO sandwich at all.
Take away the names “Obamacare” and “Government Healthcare” and the vast majority of Americans support government run healthcare.
At the very least they support all the provisions that only government run healthcare can deliver.
We on Free Republic are most certainly a narrow minority.
Government run healthcare is our future. I wish we could change that, but it does not at all look promising.
We can get rid of Obamacare very, very easily and we don’t need a single vote in the senate to accomplish it.
Obamacare has a terminal disease and is very near death.
Just let it die and good riddance.
It’s stupid to save it, like Trump and Ryan want to do, just so Ryan can get $100 handshakes from the insurance lobby while Trump gets to bang out another self-congratulatory tweet.
Do not vote to create socialized medicine in this country for all time! This is our last chance to avoid that. We give in to the left now, there’s no going back.
I do expect to lose on the one trillion dollar infrastructure bill. Trump served notice in the campaign his intentions on that.
I didn't expect to loose on healthcare and a full repeal.
They should take Mo Brooks' full repeal bill, a bill that they have passed numerous times, and with out changing the original wording, they should mark it up the way Trump might want, and they should pass it.
Anything short of that is not repeal.
Anything short of that and you still have this -->
