Yeah, that's because McConnell and Ryan won't draft good legislation that challenges the Schumer filibuster threat even though we (they) have the power to change procedures to run right over it. Either they have a standing deal in place with the Dems that they put in place when they thought Hillary was going to be the pres, or they think such machinations would look bad - to the media I guess - and worry their re-election prospects, or they just want Donald to fail. In any case, these ******* are not keeping faith with the voters.
Where is the President in all of this? He is putting all of his marbles in this opaque Ryan|McConnell process, and every time it is a shitburger. Enough Bud. Time to lead. Tell the people what you want. Tell them Ryan and McConnell are losers. Bully pulpit time. Eight ******* years of bitching about Obamacare, and we have nothing to propose. This ******* sucks.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The latest GOP effort to repeal and replace "Obamacare" was fatally wounded in the Senate Monday night when two more Republican senators announced their opposition to legislation strongly backed by President Donald Trump.
The announcements from Sens. Mike Lee of Utah and Jerry Moran of Kansas left the Republican Party's long-promised efforts to get rid of President Barack Obama's health care legislation reeling. Next steps, if any, were not immediately clear.
Lee and Moran both said they could not support Majority Leader Mitch McConnell's legislation in its current form. They joined GOP Sens. Susan Collins of Maine and Rand Paul of Kentucky, both of whom announced their opposition right after McConnell released the bill last Thursday.
