The GOP, of course.

Looks like we are once again at a Mexican standoff.

Not enough votes to repeal.
Not enough votes to pass the GOP plan.

The GOP seems incapable of Governing.

It would be tragic to lose the house and senate in 2018.
No more conservative SC justices. No more conservative federal judges.
etc, etc.

The problem is that Republicans have done a sh---y job at selling market-based, patient-centered healthcare.

Ever since Hillarycare, Republicans should have made every effort at deregulating healthcare. But what did the Clintons do when Hillarycare failed? They immediately passed SCHIP, which got more of the federal government involved in healthcare, piece by piece. And stupid Republicans went along with it.

Then came HIPPA, more Democrat foot-in-the-door techniques and supported by more Republicans.

Then came Bush with the Medicare Modernization Act, which created Medicare Part D.

You see how this works with the Dems? They NEVER give up the fight. They ALWAYS regroup and do things in pieces when something they want is rejected out of hand. And they ALWAYS look at the big picture down the road.

We are going to have single-payer healthcare because Republicans simply are not making the case for free market healthcare.

Me thinks one of these days people are going to have this revelation and realize that elections will not fix what is broke with our republic.

Yeah. Trump carried the GOP to victory almost alone but the GOP is really doing nothing in return for Trump. Nothing. What has the GOP really done this session at all (except for Trump)??!!! I would be furious. Trump has been incredibly effective almost going it alone, but if the GOP congress does totally nothing....
