he means it will get worse when his HHS Price finishes gutting it
the ridiculous thing about all this is that Republicans would have no problem passing common sense fixes to the ACA which would actually help people

He wasn't. He's deflecting.
A lot will believe him... A significant portion of people will finally see that he may very well be full of shit.
Looks like a horse farting into a fire, where the methane gas expelled combines with an open flame lighting said horse on fire.

I'm afraid of this explosion that's going to happen. Jesus, better buy a bomb shelter or something.
Sooooooo...let me get this straight:
1) Democrats plan ACA. Would be a pretty decent system.
2) Republicans work against ACA as much as possible, dismantle it, make it a shell of what it's supposed to be so they can say it was bad all along and easily repeal it when they get into power.
3) Repulicans get into power.
4) Republicans present AHCA. Everyone hates it, including most republicans.
5) Republicans decide not to vote on AHCA, keep ACA in place for "foreseeable future", the system THEY THEMSELVES sabotaged so it could be easily repealed when they got into power.

I don't know about that. Most of what you're hearing on talk radio is how the party screwed the pooch putting forward a crappy bill after having more than enough time to get something together.

You fuckstain, you couldn't get your own party behind it why would you assume you could get Dem's behind it. That would mean compromising with them which would have cost you more Rep votes.

That builds in the margin, i think. Would have lost by 10-15.
Closer to 40.

Just according to keikaku
Imploding/exploding line is top-tier.

It's a bit of both. I think Donald is a narcissist. At the same time he keeps nothing but yes men around him. At the same time he is a huge ass liar. If you hear a truth come out of his mouth run cause it's the end of the world.

And will continue to sabotage it, so they can point to it and say see we told you so; we should have voted a few years ago.

Congress: Hold my beer.
But it's actually not. Everyone is now saying that they're not touching health care this congress, which means Obamacare is safe until 2018. If the Dems retake either House, then it's safe for the foreseeable future.
The thing is that there are enough No votes from moderate Rs that they can't pass a straight repeal.

It failed because pretty much nobody at any point in the political spectrum liked it. They could've moved it further right and got the freedom caucuss onboard, but then they'd lose moderate republicans and the senate vote. It was both too rightwing for some and not rightwing enough for others simultaneously

He put the blame for the death of a Navy Seal on one of his Generals and used the mother for a cheap pop.
He got applauded for the move across the board.
I mean, imagine what it's like to hear this bumbling, incompetent buffoon make a mockery of the entire country just two feet to the right of you.

Funny thing about Trump blaming dems is if he doesn't start coming after FC people and soon not only will he have completely lost the game of chicken against them but also failed to follow through on any of the threats he's been dishing out the past week
Nobody is ever going to be intimidated by this guy anymore

If there were no cameras and a knife..........
He also almost said he "never said repeal and replace", before stumbling and adding "within 64 days".
It's like word soup.
any blow back against the Republicans is a good one. It makes them look like lame ducks in Congress, and makes more people regret voting Trump.

Laugh all you want at "imploding then exploding," but what do you think stars have to deal with?
Called it. He's been leading up to this with slight tells for awhile now, like at his address calling out left wing and then calling for both parties to work on healthcare. He was looking for fodder to shift blame when things went down. To sane people paying attention they will know dems have nothing to do with this but this new public that voted in Trump and his lies are a different matter, i'm worried they will believe this shit.

That is also true, which makes Rentahamster's comment that this was master negotiation even more ridiculous.
No wayyy, his base DOES remember that.

David Gergen nailed it. Trump sounded delusional.
It will be at least a year, when the next budget comes up, and Trump will have even less political capital by then
unless they want to pass bipartisan fixes of course (lol)
Trump's on that Youngblood shit, putting troll dolls out on the board.
