His strategy for much of his campaign and the earlier stages of his presidency was setting the stage, and letting the opponent walk onto it, just to find that the stage was never a stage, but a bear trap.<br /><br />Pushing to repeal Obamacare would be enough to do this. Battle lines would become clear, and Trump would get the kudos from his voter base for giving it an honest shot. Every rino that votes against it would have some explaining to do. /pol/ and the_donald Reddit won't spare a moment to meme these guys out of any credibility.<br /><br />Meanwhile, Melania is singing the praises of natural health and steering clear of big pharma.<br /><br />We're missing part of the story somewhere.<br /><br />Black Flaghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04264200450145227142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-648884752216444797.post-76250193555226123322017-03-13T08:15:27.551-07:002017-03-13T08:15:27.551-07:00"What senator or congressman of either party ..."What senator or congressman of either party is going to tell millions of people now receiving Medicaid that weren't previously that their "Gravy Train" is going to end?"<br /><br />Which is why they hide behind tying "repeal" to "replace."<br /><br />bionic mosquitohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12002548958078731031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-648884752216444797.post-30462366344758064132017-03-13T07:47:58.258-07:002017-03-13T07:47:58.258-07:00There is no way to repeal Obummer Care.

The Bright Lights of Obama Team and their buddies in the medical industry special interest carefully crafted this mess to destroy wealth and increase their rents from their respective businesses. What senator or congressman of either party is going to tell millions of people now receiving Medicaid that weren't previously that their "Gravy Train" is going to end? Who is going to stand up to United Health Group or Anthem or one of the other oligopoly of maybe 8 companies and bring the house down?<br /><br />There is no way to get beyond the dependence of the whole mess on the requirements for all to have insurance and the requirements for everybody to have a standard (There are several of them) crappy and extremely expensive insurance plan.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-648884752216444797.post-81255749880266715102017-03-13T07:13:21.584-07:002017-03-13T07:13:21.584-07:00Matt, there are enough republicans to vote to repe...Matt, there are enough republicans to vote to repeal it if they all just vote to repeal it; this is why they don't want a straight vote for repeal. It will bring the hypocrisy to a test. Republicans in the pocket of big government, big pharma, etc., will be forced to vote yea or nay.<br /><br />If the vote not to repeal, they will be booted out of office. If they vote to repeal, they will lose their source of campaign funding and future payoffs.bionic mosquitohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12002548958078731031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-648884752216444797.post-52402151412217207312017-03-12T19:59:02.666-07:002017-03-12T19:59:02.666-07:00Vote to repeal anyhow.
