MEMO FOR PRESIDENT TRUMP: WHERE IS TRUMPCARE?
Throughout the campaign you said that:
1. You were not a politician, you were a businessman skilled in negotiating.
2. Despite the claims of your critics you said that you were not a liar, that you would make good on all your promises.
3. You promised the country that you would repeal and replace Obamacare and repeatedly made the following statements to that effect:
a. “We will immediately repeal and replace ObamaCare - and nobody can do that like me. We will save $'s and have much better healthcare!”
b. “I’m going to work immediately to knock out Obamacare, and we are going to start taking care of our vets and the military.”
c. “On my first day I’m going to ask Congress to immediately send me a bill to repeal and replace Obamacare.”
d. “When we win on November 8th and elect a Republican Congress, we will be able to immediately repeal and replace Obamacare. I will ask Congress to convene a special session.”
I SUPPORTED YOU BUT NOW I’M ASKING “WHERE’S THE BEEF?” WHERE IS TRUMPCARE?
WHY ARE YOU SUPPORTING THE RINO RYAN AND HIS INSURANCE COMPANY SPONSORED HEALTHCARE BILL THAT:
- DOES NOT REPEAL OBAMACARE?
- DOES NOT ALLOW INTERSTATE COMPETITION?
- DOES NOT PROHIBIT ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS FROM GETTING ACCESS TO THE PROGRAM THAT LAW-ABIDING AMERICANS ARE PAYING FOR?
WHY ARE YOU NOW ATTACKING THE CONSERVATIVES WHO HAVE BEEN YOUR MOST LOYAL SUPPORTERS?
WHY IS THIS BILL NOT CALLED TRUMPCARE? ARE YOU AFRAID TO PUT YOUR NAME ON IT BECAUSE YOU KNOW IT IS FLAWED, BECAUSE YOU KNOW THAT IT WILL NOT UNDO OBAMACARE AND THAT ULTIMATELY IT BE DISCOVERED AS A FRAUD?
I’M BEGINNING TO THINK THAT YOU’RE NOT THE HOT SHOT NEGOTIATOR YOU THINK YOU ARE.
I’M BEGINNING TO THINK THAT YOU’RE JUST A BULLY MASQUERADING AS A DEAL MAKER WHO NOW RESORTS TO THREATS WHEN YOU DON’T GET YOUR WAY.
I’M BEGINNING TO THINK THAT YOU’RE NOT AS TRUTHFUL AS YOU SAY YOU ARE.
> “When we win on November 8th and elect a Republican Congress, we will be able to immediately repeal and replace Obamacare. I will ask Congress to convene a special session.”
Let me know when we have a Republican congress. Right now because the Senate refuses to remove the filibuster we have the house but not the senate.
I am beginning to think we have some people here on FR that are unhinged.
Ann Coulter wrote a great article about all this the other day........

Indeed. With 0% of Democrats willing to work with Trump and only 95% of Republicans, it’s going to be difficult to get stuff through. People need to calm down.
There is a one line bill currently being proposed which basically just says “Repeal it”.
I would also suggest a very short bill which says, in effect, “All federal employees, other than active duty military, must sign up for state-run Obamacare plans. This includes all senators and congressmen.”
Let Congress decide:
Repeal it for everyone?
Stick the voters with it but continue to make themselves immune from it?
Eat their own cooking and suffer along just like the rest of us?
It’s a time for choosing.
We don’t want Trumpcare; we want repeal of 0bamacare.
Uh, I will give him more than 60 days to make good on his promises. The Media is fomenting unreasonable expectations......but that’s what they do to every Republican/Conservative. Give him time.
Bingo!
Amen!!!
The never-trumpers are all for “freedom” yet their behavior to date consistently contradicts their words.
RE:”I am beginning to think we have some people here on FR that are unhinged”
Beginning?
Yeah...there is a lot of conflict on this it seems. I’d have thought that the big sticking point would be immigration. The OP’s last post was in August last year specifically about that.
I was looking at someone else’s posts last night who are now all incensed at Trump because they didn’t do this or that, but the last time they posted was in 2010, shortly after they signed up.
You tell me. But from my perspective, motives, provenance and legitimate perspective need to be considered too.
I’m conflicted and searching, too. But I still have enough sense to sift through the ulterior motive BS I see here now.
Seriously? Do you expect him to rule by EO like Zero or execute his duties and fix the problems within the Law?
The President needs to have the courage to start his own party and take the RINO’s and liberal republicans with him.
That is unacceptable. Even when the dummycrats are the minority, they get whatever they want. It is time for the GOP to put up, or be forced out. Once again, we have been sold down the river.
Regarding vets.. read the management amendment of rinocare.. they signed it in the dark to deny veterans the same choices non citizens would get under the same bill. Marching needy vets to the VA gulag, not just no. thank God for Rep Meadows for revealing this legislation.
Typical hysterical stuff.
It’s been 8 weeks. Trump let Ryan try it his way and failed. HFC didn’t even try to get involved-—remember they voted for Ryan, they DIDN’T run any opposing candidate, and just yesterday they reaffirmed that they weren’t calling for Ryan to step down (really “principled,” huh?).
Let’s see where we are in 3 more months. Meanwhile, illegals being deported in record number (gee, that’s no lying bully), jobs coming into this country like crazy (gee, that’s no lying bully), and we have canceled several bad trade deals (gee, that’s no lying bully). Might want to re-think the big picture here.
The same place FREEDOMCAUCUSCARE is. POTUS supported a health care bill last week. If you chose to join the Democrats in opposing it so be it. They thank you for your support.
You are just beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Trump is taking to task, the MSM, proving what he said is correct, ferreting out the moles in his administration from the Obama admin that is undermining what he is trying to do. People are coming out in large numbers about the spying on he and his administration. The people voting against the health care bill have been identified, and now know that the jig is up.
I do not think that his performance at this point is anything short of amazing. He has done more while in office than many of his predecessors. Draining the swamp will not occur quickly. You have to separate the wheat from the chaff, and keeping quality, dependable people, and getting rid of infiltrators is not a quick process. Assigning judges to fill vacancies is important, and trusting his people to select quality judges is part of delegating. Allowing Jeff Sessions to start prosecuting Judges, and start the arrest process for those who violate constitutional law, and advocate and approve Sanctuary Cities, is a priority, to make cities, states, and the country adhere to the rule of law. Remember, Trump said we will follow the laws on the books. We will be a nation of laws.
While the MSM spins its wheels speculating about what Trump is doing or will do, has become much harder as the moles have been found out. Not so many leaks now, eh?
He is early in, and IMO is doing a great job. Once the Ball starts rolling, the changes will come hard and fast. The health care bill will happen, Obamacare will collapse on its own weight, and the democrats complaint that 20 million will lose health coverage will be on them for their inaction. The bill will improve during that time and by the time the demorats are ready to play ball, the gang of 8 have had their say, and everybody has had time to read the bill, it will happen. In the mean time, Keystone happened, the coal industry deregulation happened, oil prices are down, gas prices continue to drop, Tax relief for small businesses has started getting the attention it needs, and top quality professionals continue to be brought into the administration.
While I understand your Angst, I think that we are still in the 1st quarter, and we still have the rest of the game ahead of us. Hang in there, the best is yet to come, and every day the media has less and less to talk about, until they will hang on his every tweet to have something to mock him about. Meanwhile the military for the first time had relief from its rules of engagement actually allowing them to fight back, now they have enough bullets, and equipment. The VA has had a big boost in funding, new equipment is being built and our military stores are getting refilled.
Tons is happening, if you just look in different directions.
But, that is just my observation, and my point of view.
