The Democrats wanted to keep Obamacare so you would have complained about the Republicans if it was repealed. So why are you complaining now that it wasn't? Are you ever happy?
To be clear, I wasn't all that happy about ACA...but it did do some really good things like eliminate the preexisting condition exclusion–which is a big deal for me since I have preexisting conditions. The GOP bill did a lot of bad things...but I have to ask, do you even know what was in the GOP plan that the GOP couldn't pass?
What's inside the Republican health care bill?The irony is that it was the conservative group the House Freedom Caucus (AKA Tea Party) that sunk the bill. They refused to accept the compromise bill that then the moderate GOP couldn't stomach.
So, Trump has learned a lesson...being CEO of a closely held inc is not good on the job training for being the leader of the free world.
And the way it looks, moving onto tax reform is gonna be even harder than healthcare because, well, he lost all the saving the GOP healthcare bill would have provided so now he's gonna have to cut even more out of the budget which already is a sore point for the GOP and the next aim of the democratic resistance.
If you would have told me on Jan 20th that the GOP would be scared to repeal and replace the ACA because of the resistance of their hometown constituents town hall meetings I would not have believed that liberals could have shut Trump down so handily...
Just wait till the resistance takes on the Trump budget :~)
