    The best part...this just proves that Ryan is as worthless as John Boehner was. This is his baby, he has the House and Senate on his side and he cant push it through. Go back to doing kegstands thinking about screwing over the poor you complete and total d-bag.

    Trump and Ryan made the mistake everyone told them not to make...dont bite the hand that feeds. They got elected because they promised to bring back the glory of the White Voter and now you are screwing them over. Never **** off Whitey!

      Seems like Trump/Ryan should have begun with a bill that either moderates really loved OR conservatives really loved & bargained from there…

      …instead they began with a bill that nobody loved and are having to fight a two-front war. That's tough to negotiate your way out of.

        Yeah, I've already seen all three members of Congress for Alaska come out against it, even Dan "Mr. Koch on line 1" Sullivan. And judging from tone I don't think Don Young will be voting for it, so that's one defector.

              Ah, but mookie is smart right?

              People are dumb. I don't want choices. I want good, affordable care. They republicans equate choices with quality. Well, you can eat a dog turd, cow sh_t, kitty litter truffles, or a glass of pigeon sh_t. Which would you like?

              The GOP voters eat it right up. "Ooh! I'll take the poo-poo platter!"

                Based on what I've read the best bet for the GOP to survive is straight repeal. That's what their voters want and that's what their representatives want. This abortion they came up with is not going to work.

                    That would be nice but it's not going to happen. Vets don't even get that deal.

                        At this point this is what I'd like to see.

                        1. Medicaid stay intact. Have financial means testing for it.
                        2. Medicare for all from age 50 and up. Supplemental insurance handled by insurance companies.
                        3. Federal Government takes over the High Risk pools and places them directly into Medicaid.
                        4. Rest of insurance stays intact.

                        Done.

                          Straight repeal is bad for them, too. First because it will harm about 20 million people, and second because then their lies about Obamacare will be exposed so brutally and straightforwardly that even a few Republican voters will catch on.

                          They need to go through some sort of caisson lock so they can keep claiming that whatever horror they finally foist on the public is better than Obamacare would have been. A straight one-to-one comparison will destroy them.

                          I'm convinced that they should let the Freedumbs kill their plan, then continue to sabotage Obamacare until it bankrupts due to lack of funding, and then blame the Dems and the 'dumbs who wouldn't be whipped to Ryan. That could give them a win-win: keep the base distracted by reflex Dem Hate and also sink some of the more insane 'dumbs in the next primary cycle and possibly get the House in order.

                          But even so, the odds are long they wouldn't get just as much if not more mud on themselves as their opponents. They have well and truly f-cked themselves with the games they played the last 8 years, and their Hindenburg Moment couldn't happen to a more fitting group of swine.

                            Yes, you add the choice of "NO" to the equation. Sometimes by choice, more by not affording it.

                            That's the only choice this new plan adds.
