This is all pretty much right. This was the best possible outcome for Trump. We already see them blaming Democrats. Even someonesfuckingmind in this very thread is saying Dems are equally responsible, lol.

Maybe. It will be harder than Trump and the Republicans think to blame Democrats if Obamacare blows up, though.

Just play the tapes of Trump repeatedly saying "The best thing to do would be to let Obamacare blow up and then blame the Democrats." Meanwhile people will be asking why the party with both Congress and the White House did nothing.

Like Republicans hold their representatives responsible for anything anymore. The only thing GOP voters want is their rep to say insane things and to drink liberal tears. Anything else is gravy.

The really sad part about all of this is that I lose my ability to choose the health plan that's right for me. Now I have to keep a really good health plan that protects me from most everything that I can afford instead of having the choice of being priced out of the market for a good plan, but still having the choice to chose some piece of shit that doesn't cover anything. But look, I'm a real man and an American to boot and fucking choice is everything. Who wouldn't chose a bike rather than having a Cadillac shoved up your ass by a nanny state. You can fool a fucktard once but you have to drop a car on it's head or something like that. Give me freedom and give me death. I think that's the one I was looking for. Oh fuck, the tape holding my poster of Donald Trump the First, just failed. Laters........ I will try pins.

Only wimps want insurance plans that cover frivolities like prescription drugs.

So where did this clip come from?


It must be out of context right? Paul Ryan did not just say he wasn't giving up on destroying the healthcare system for the American people.

Trump won! The bill passed! Winning! Winning! Wimpy Dems can't accept that they lost. Fake news, so sad.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Two thoughts.....

Obama MUST be VERY content tonight. VERY!!!
And second,
Trump is all alone in the Whitehouse tonight.
Probably in his shorts and socks with a tee rolling up over his protrouding belly (picture it), and on his left is his phone saying TWEET ME TWEET ME., and on his right? THAT RED BUTTON.
The button to end all buttons, and end all life as we know it.

God help us that Trump choses the device to his left.
Say a prayer. Just repeat the words LEFT... LEFT.... LEFT....

Repubs have been insincere all along-

Rep. Joe Barton (R-TX) admitted as much as he left the meeting Friday. Reporters asked why, after Republicans held dozens of nearly-unanimous votes to repeal Obamacare under President Obama, they were getting cold feet now that they control the levers of power.

“Sometimes you’re playing Fantasy Football and sometimes you’re in the real game,” he said. “We knew the president, if we could get a repeal bill to his desk, would almost certainly veto it. This time we knew if it got to the president’s desk it would be signed.”

http://talkingpointsmemo.com/dc/leadership-pulls-obamacare-repeal

It's all based on pamper the wealthy "free market" ideology, one way or the other. You know, get the govt off rich people's backs, the poor oppressed dears.

In the meanwhile-



All the Americans that Repubs are trying to fuck over should feel the same.

Pretty telling how each news organization handled this, of these 4, who would you trust the most for an unbiased take on this clusterfuck by the gop (clearly not me )





Sorry about the PBS one, they really didn't have a 'headline' but those two main stories below the 'header'

I don't see that CNN headline as any less biased/objective than FOX's (maybe your point is that public broadcast like PBS and BBC is less politicized, which I would agree with).

I'm wondering just how vindictive Trump will be now.

Is he going to attempt to make Obamacare worse?

Will he go after Democrats?

The more I think about it, the better I like this idea. Trump should simply insist that the bill passed. Congressional Republicans can stop sabotaging the ACA and folks will think the improvements are due to the bill.

It's idiotic to blame the Democrats. He's a baby, and CNN is pointing that out.

This guy is a piece of work. The Dems are losers when the Repubs control everything. You couldn't even convince your own party members that AHCA was worth passing. Good luck to him.

Part of it is behind the scenes stuff the mainstream media won't report on. The Koch brothers have a lot of influence with the Freedom Caucus and threatened to challenge any voting yes or support any voting no.

Paul Ryan accepts it's over: Obamacare is 'law of the land'

So do we call the health care the Republicans finally gave us, Trumpcare of Ryancare. I don't know which is more deserving of the honor.

Republican establishment cannot give us anything, they do not have the votes.
If they have any desire to help the American people it'll be a bipartisan bill with Dems.
