How do you conclude that the Congress is going to pass a law acceptable to the Lovers of Losing Caucus? This revision of Obamacare may not even pass the Senate. The Democrats are going to scream about defunding Planned Parenthood and the other positive features of the bill.
Thirty or so Democrats voted against the original Obamacare bill. There is nothing wrong with seeking their votes for this one. Then the tail stops wagging the dog.
Trump is suggesting we fight to get rid of the few actual conservatives in Congress. If you don’t have a problem with that I don’t know what you are doing at FR—other than being a paid shill of the GOPe in some capacity or some sort of personality cultist about Trump.
And defunding the birth control aspects of Planned Parenthood is no reason to push us to a fully nationalized healthcare system. That it is put in as a carrot to do so is insulting manipulation.
