"Repeal only" voted down in Senate. Next!

[Bugsy McGurk]

Such tension, as we see which GOP health care flim-flam bill they vote on next.

One of those bills ("skinny repeal") is an out-and-out Obamacare sabotage bill.

Stay tuned!

"The failed effort was a remarkable contrast from less than two years ago, when a Republican-controlled House and Senate passed an identical measure and sent it to Obama.

"He vetoed the bill.

"In 2015, the passage of that legislation was largely viewed as a political messaging exercise: GOP lawmakers were keenly aware that Obama would not sign it into law.

"But now, with Republican President Donald Trump in the White House and ready to sign a bill, the stakes are real -- as are the realities of voting to repeal the current health care law without a replacement in place.

"The failure crystalized the new reality for Republicans: more than seven years after the enactment of Obamacare, there is growing recognition within the GOP that a straight repeal of the law is not viable."

After all, the ceaseless mantra of Trump and GOP members of Congress was to "repeal and replace" Obamacare. As Trump said, replacing the ACA with a health care law providing much better care to all at a fraction of the cost. Some GOP Senate members know it would be a betrayal of their pledges to simply repeal the ACA with no replacement. Not Trump - he clearly enjoys pulling off big scams.

Maybe Trump doesn't have to worry about reelection in the same way congressional Republicans do? His only interest is milking the US Government Cash Cow for as long as he and his crime family can hold on.
