So after all the other plans have failed, now they are looking to pass a bill that they don’t actually want as it would destory the market completely if it went into law. So they want the house to pinky swear that they won't pass it...
Seriously. This would be bad enough of it were some small bill limited in scope and not all that important. But this is literally a bill in which American lives hang in the balance.

They've lost their minds. All of them.
It's beyond wealthy donors, IMO. It's just pure hatred for Obama and a desire to erase his Presidency.

| Vote is being held open right now. So for the moment the GOP doesn't have the votes. It is the two that voted against proceeding, joined by McCain. GOP trying to twist arms right now.

| Looks like McCain might have refused to budge. GOP has moved on to try and twist Murkowski's arm.

McConnell basically blaming the Democrats for the failure, because they didn't want to repeal the ACA.
Schumer says they need to repair the ACA now by working together. Return to the Senate of old with bipartisanship. Schumer says that all democrats agree that the ACA has significant flaws and are ready to fix them by going back to committees and putting in hard work.

| Wonderful. Someone just stuck a microphone in Ted Cruz's face. What is it about him that makes my skin crawl every time he speaks? He's like this muculent creature that oozes itself into human shape every once in a while to blow feculent air through its mouthhole that sounds like words but in reality is just nonsense.

As john fugelsang says, the GOP is like the guy in the audience who heckles the comedian on stage, does it for 7 years, then, when given the mic and the stage after all that time, has nothing.
The GOP is a POS.

Now this: Chump threatens to end Obamacare payments. Will it never end? Lunacy in the WH. Reminds me of the conversation between Bond and Goldfinger: " Goldfinger you expect me to talk"? (as the laser is about to split Bond between his legs) {American people are Bond} "No Mr. Bond I expect you to die"!!!! Trumpcare as Goldfinger
PEACE & LOVE GO MYSTICS!!!!!
