haha now the senate is just going to repeal with a 2 year delay. the same bill that was passed in 2015 and veto'd by obama. republicans pretty much have to support this or they will look like hypocrites and their bases will riot. Obamacare is going bye bye one way or another. booyah.

The republican party doesn't want to. they are all talk. They would prefer a democrat were in the whitehouse so they could pretend to be for small government when really they are just as much taker supporters as anyone else.

Make no mistake. Americans are catching in to the scam perpetuated by the likes of McCuntell, Ryan and Joey Scarborough

I am glad this piece of shit bill failed.

Just repeal Obamacare root and branch.

Do you think Douchebag Donald would sign a strictly repeal bill?

he literally just called for it on twitter about 30 minutes after this thread was made. that's what is going to happen now. McConnell said so.

Well that would make the GOP quite popular. How many million people would lose their coverage?

Are there even enough votes on the Republican side to pass a repeal only bill?

Would these fuckers have the gall to do something like rip health coverage away from millions of people without having the guts to replace it with something better?

They truly would be seen as scum by the majority of the public if they did.

And rightfully so.

I almost hope they do it. I'd enjoy watching them go down in flames.

Maybe I'd lose my monstrous deductible along with it.

Since healthcare is complicated, there are going to be winners and losers no matter which route you go with it.

Trump just appealed to democrats on Twitter and I saw it coming. Bring them on, let's pass a bipartisan bill. Not everyone will like it, but like I said, healthcare is complicated....

they are building in a 2 year delay until 2019. There are a lot of stupid voters out there that wont be paying attention, and think the replace part (falsely due in 2019) will be around the corner.

long run, it might be a losing political battle. tough call. i mean, americans have barely had this and now it's something they can't live without? what were they doing before 2014?

in the meantime though we should get as many takers to die as possible.
 
OK, we now know that Trumpcare is dead and buried. Time for the GOP to drop their crazy Regan-era ideology and haggle with the Dems for a nationally workable healthcare program. Those GOP dinosaurs who think that any kind of care that has 'social' medicine in it is hardcore Marxism need to get brain transplant. Canada and Australia seem to manage OK with their versionsn off healthcare.
