Paul Ryan Is Solely To Blame For RyanCare's Demise

    3/24/2017


Health Reform: Friday's decision to pull the American Health Care Act from the House floor because it lacked enough votes to pass was a culmination of months of bad decisions, poor planning, and terrible messaging by the GOP leadership in the House.

This failure undermines not only the party's credibility, but President Trump's purported ability to "make great deals." Worse, it emboldens the left-wing "resistance."

The "repeal and replace" bill died because it lacked a soul.

At least the democrats believe in something - cradle to grave butt-wiping socialism.

What do the republicans stand for? What was the basic philosophy behind Ryan's healthcare bill?

Trump didn't make any effort to push congress to improve it or start with something better to begin with. He instead attacked his own party threatening to "primary" anyone wouldn't vote for it as is. Trump owns a LOT of blame for this just on this issue.

And the truth is, Trump campaigned on forcing insurers to cover preexisting conditions which means it isn't insurance at all anymore. Go pass laws requiring coverage of your house after it burns down and it will go the same way... Trump also promised to cover the "25%" who couldn't afford the cost and said the "government was going to pay for it". So this Ryan bill gave Trump exactly what he asked for.

You can blame Ryan for giving Trump what he wanted but what Trump wanted is what's wrong.

Philosophy? He (and Donaldus Minimus) wouldn't know the meaning of a word that big.

Stop it. They reject that reality and are trying to replace it with one they like better.
