    Remember, Trump said that the senate should work until they had a new repeal/replace heath care plan. Trump leads by example...

    GOP and "libertarians" still desperate to deprive 20 million of health care to give tax cut to wealthy. Wierd morality

    Health insurance isn't the same thing as health care. Some day people will realize that.

    I did it! I learned how to post a tweet on another page without it looking messy!
    Almost as big as me discovering people left comments on twitter.

    According to Trump today, people will start to realize that the 17 years of Obamacare has been a disaster. Yep, I remember back in 2000 how Bush loved Obama so much that instead of calling it BushCare (a whole other type of health care), he named it Obamacare. I mean, even if you're reading off a TelePrompter, how dumb do you have to be not to catch that? LOFL.

    Heh, well I think we can all agree that Trump is a knuckle dragger.

    I mean, they all make mistakes- Obama's 58 states, HW Bush, September 7 for Pearl Harbor, etc. So, I'll go easy on The Don for this one.

    Trump being Trump (recall the republican senators chose to create their healthcare plan excluded any women republican senators). But thank you Senator Collins for standing up for your and America's principles. And for protecting Americans from what would be the most inhumane legislation of all time. You are correct... Trump is ignoring you and your constituents.

    Collins says she hasn't heard from Trump on healthcare: He's 'focusing on others'

    In addition to Trump's offensive speech at BSA, he also managed to breach military ethics and rules...

    Unpresidential Command
    Trump is ordering service members to support the Republican agenda. That is terrifying.

    Looks like the Republicans got their 50 votes. Guess we're a step closer to breaking the insurance markets. Murkowski and Collins were the no votes on the Republican side.

    With one swoop, republican senators along with the vice president acted and 32 million Americans are going without health care coverage. Another shameful day under Donald Trump.

    That just starts debate, they'd need to hold that together in order to defund Obamacare. They might pull it off, but it won't be easy.

    I agree. Minimal chance that Obamacare gets repealed WITHOUT a replacement. There are just enough red states too dependent on medicaid expansion for that to happen.

    While I have great respect for John McCain, his speech criticizing the Senate for not engaging in regular order AFTER voting to start debate on a bill that didn't go through regular order is just laughable.

    You can't lecture the Senate after being the deciding vote to enable the very behavior you're criticizing. What a joke.
