    The party whose best analogy is the dog that caught the mail truck..... they just don't know what the hell to do. Maybe another 7 years?

    Trump blames everyone but himself, and says let Obamacare fail instead.

    Worst leader of a democracy in world history. Potentially the worst leader in world history.

    He'd rather let millions die too prove Obama was wrong.

    Fox news analyst and respected conservative commentator not only rips republicans for "epic" failing but also blames Trump for his lack of leadership, compared to Obama who helped pass ACA.. So much for Trump's desire to not own it...

    Krauthammer rips GOP's 'epic fail' on healthcare

    Umm Hitler was elected by a democracy. For all his faults, Trump is no Hitler.

    All I am asking is to cover preexisting conditions and not to bankrupt families if there is a serious illness by putting in yearly cap and get rid of lifetime cap, is that too much to ask of a HEALTH INSURANCE?

    It's like he's a monster and stupid at the same time.

    He's stupid because he keeps on claiming the ACA is failing and will fail soon on its own and he's a monster because he uses his stupid premise to claim that he's willing to see the healthcare system to fail and have people die just so he can prove a point.

    Worst of both worlds. How did any sane individual want this man? What the **** is wrong with his supporters. In what era in human history was this type of leadership considered competent or morally sound?

    Trump continues to be Trump:


    While its clear he is now doing everything he can to throw his republican congress under the buss and shirk his own responsibility for blame (all while making a political game about American citizens health issues), he also shows how truly unaware of what it will take to create a working solution ("it will get better at lunchtime"). How many years has the republican party been opposing ACA and threatened to appeal and replace... and somehow he and his republican buddies will make things better over chicken nuggets and juiceboxes?

    And I am guessing Drudge is separating the republican senate from Trump on this, but IMO both share in the blame and criticism, and to answer Drudge's question...yes, we can expect "they" (Trump AND the republican congress) to botch tax cuts next.

    Trump's HHS also found that Cruz/TRUMP MAGA healthcare amendment cured cancer, took out stubborn grass stains, provided a chicken in every pot and a car in every garage, and most important, had nothing to do with any Russian spies.

    We all know that the urgency to rush out with this analysis before any CBO analysis is made available. Since every other major bill is scored on the CBO analysis, best to wait to see how many millions of Americans will be without insurance based on anything Trump and the republicans race out there.

    That implies that Obamacare saves lives which is something that hasn't been proven true and almost certainly isn't true. I get that the goal was to go the route of shocking rhetoric rather than an accurate statement, but it would be better if you just stuck to the truth.

    Hitler wasn't elected. He lost the election, he was appointed Chancellor and then seized power.

    It has saved lives. Personal testimony from two close friends of mine. One who died from stage IV colon cancer but was approved for ACA after his work wrongfully terminated his long term health insurance and benefits. Without it, he would have been a pre-existing condition that would have died far more painfully and without dignity that he deserved. The other again is a friend of mine with Primary Immunodeficiency. She has chronic illnesses that would otherwise be denied based on pre-existing conditions on top of her age. Were it not for ACA, she would be dead right now. So you're wrong. You can argue, that's only two examples, but I've no doubt there's far more out there than you're willing to research.
