Republican legislators in the House of Representatives have pushed back a vote to repeal Obamacare until next week, it was reported on Thursday. That means President Donald Trump's hopes for a major legislative 'win' before the expiration of his first 100 days in office appear to be on life support.
Trump was eager to resuscitate an earlier Republican bid to pass a health care bill that would have replaced the Affordable Care Act, the signature piece of legislation passed by his predecessor, Barack Obama.<
But House Speaker Paul Ryan and his senior GOP colleagues failed to muster the necessary number of votes to ensure the bill's passage.

One can only accomplish what one wishes to accomplish. Ryan is a back stabbing RINO and should be run out of office.
Ryan is a total loser. Too clever by halfwit.
We now see the piubes are just as bad as the rats, get rid of them all!
Big Deal....Is this going to be another FR anti-Trump thread?
Seems more like an anti-Congress thread, to me.
Hey... I’ll join in
What a bunch of worthless losers. Almost every one of them is a millionaire (must be the high salaries they get for being in Congress... oh, wait? They don’t get paid that much? Curious, then, huh?). Then they get to make laws that they exempt themselves from (nice work if you can get it) when they occasionally DO make laws, because that would mean they’d have to actually work.
Why is Trump having to do everything by executive order that can just be undone when the next RAT President gets in? Oh, yeah... it’s because the Republican Congress is NOT ON HIS SIDE... and therefore not on OUR side. They’re on THEIR side, and it’s no wonder they’re about as popular as a clogged toilet with the average American.
If they think we can’t see that, they are dumber than they think we are.
We know Trump has tried and we know who the real instigators are.
Ryan has Obeyed Romney and the UN.
The Plan:
Ryan will run for President in 2020
with Romney hidden behind him.
Good question. Some very good information here. Interesting reading:

This is ridiculous. We gave them the House, the Senate and the WH so they could get rid of 0care and build the wall. So far they’ve refused to stand with Trump on either of those.
What do these people think is going to happen? Do they think we’re going to ignore that cowardice in 2018? This is part of the swamp we the people can and must drain. It’s on us to help Trump fix the GOP.
He’s not flubbing anything, he sees his job as running interference.
The GOP are liars, always liars,
and STILL EXEMPT.
Trump is wining big time - Ryan and the RINOs/GOPe are the ones losing.
If I had two words to say to Ryan, they would be “JUST REPEAL!”
I have two words for Ryan, but I can’t use them on this forum.
Ryan is a traitor who needs to be hanged, drawn and quartered.
This “first 100 days” meme is nonsense.
Maybe after we get past this artificial deadline, people can pay more attention to getting things done and less attention to fake deadlines. I’m happy with all that Trump has accomplished so far and it is meaningless to me whether he fixes something on day 100 or day 101.
Trump has imagination. He is now aware that Congress as now represented does not work. Ergo, start your own party. Call for a gathering of National Party stalwarts in October of this year. If he splits the Republican Party in 2018, so what. He can govern by executive fiat and his Secretaries can continue to drain each individual swamp. By 2020 and the next election he will be in a powerful position to finally be able to govern with the support of the American people.
100 days and not one single law has been passed for Trump to sign. Absolutely disgraceful! They should not be paid.
