People, including some GOP legislators havae said that instead of repealing Obamacare, they should try to fix it. I think it is more likely that the GOP tries to insure it diess and then blame it on the Dems. Do you think that the GOP will go after Obamacare and make sure it fails?
 
I think today showed us only one thing for certain. There is no "the GOP". There is an amalgamation of factions on the right that can't agree on anything and which are more suitably called "GOPs" plural after what we witnessed today. The whole party is now RINOs because Republican no longer means anything.

Risky, but sure. Their voters are probably stupid enough to believe them.
 
No one will take seriously any of their whining about it now, because it was in their hands and they failed to do anything about it. So it doesn't matter how they try to frame it. They'll have had both house and senate for 2 years and done nothing

This is now a dead issue until the dems take power and it will time to look seriously at single payer

Well that requires for the GOP to actually Govern. Sadly GOP really really really really bad at governing. It is always easier to be against something than try to fix it.

Yeah, I almost spit my coffee all over the windshield of my car when I heard Trump blaming the Democrats for his Republican bill hitting the wall and failing to sway Republicans.

Main thing is that this wasn't Trumps bill, it was Ryan's. It was an establishment stinker. Will help us get rid of more establishment types in the midterms and bolster Trump.

Ha ha ha, you type that with a straight face did ya?

The reason the GOP has to create something entirely new or fix this nightmare is because, you will remember, the bomb when he had all the power, had all his Dem buddies in line, he gave us this creature created when the Hindenburg crashed into the Titanic then fell off the fiscal cliff.

I mean, the epitome of not able to govern in any meaningful or helpful way.
 
His circus, his monkeys.

You cannot possibly believe that....Oh, wait.

You were driving? It is a darn good thing that Trump didn't actually try and take any responsibility. If so, you would have ran off of the road....")

I don't think anybody needs to go after Obamacare and make sure it fails. Obamacare is quite capable of failing on its own.
 
Accoding to the Government finance office, it is beginning to actually stabalize. We need though to fix it and it will run well again. Most of the problems we haave with ACA have been caused by those Governors who for political reasoons fought the ACA. It is either this or single ppayer, you choose.
