So...if they never repeal the ACA, they won't try for tax reform?

It's interesting to see the Freedom caucus emphasize how health care costs are out of control. A personal example is a good friend of mine recently delivered twins, one of which required two weeks in the NICU. Total cost of the bill was $120k. Thankfully, the vast majority of it was insured through his HMO.
So it begs the question, what policies would the Freedom caucus put in place if they're probably the most free market conservatives out there and firmly believes in repealing and not replacing ACA.

It's his penis, but I can see how it would be easy to confuse the two.
I think if they go home for the recess without having repealed it they are going to get mauled. Like the way Obummer got attacked by crazy people.
But again they will repeal it. The AHCA is designed for that.
Shit bill + small tweaks to save face = win!

The freedom caucus isn't budging for some small tweaks. The only way they lose is passing a bill too liberal for their base and getting themselves primaried. Not to mention the proxy way in the background between Ryan and Trump/Bannon. They have a better shot of pulling dem cross over votes imo than managing to craft a bill that gets the entire republican party on board.
I am very confident the AHCA won't become law. The outcomes for the end users of health care are just too aggressively bad, the wings of the GOP are too far apart, and the attack ads write themselves.
Disclaimer: I was equally confident Trump would never become president.
Either way, backed themselves into a corner nice and good.
Winning was easy, governing's harder

Also notice Trump called it the house bill and not our bill. They are ready to quickly throw Ryan to the wolves when this fails, and I don't see how his speakership survives for long with that major a failure
Let me introduce you to my friend Paul Ryan. He's a serious, thinking man's conservative.
Kander was such a missed opportunity. Maybe next election.
Mike Huckabee just openly encouraged Donald Trump to violate the constitution.
A lot to unpack here.

Trump really should hit up the Nathan Bedford Forrest statue while he's in Nashville.
I'm pretty sure it was sculpted by the same lady who restored that Spanish painting of Jesus.
We've got a chain strip club around here in Memphis with a statue like this in the parking lot, plus a rather large representation of a horse penis (which used to be larger, but it got classified as a falling risk by the city lmao).
Even Ryan isn't supporting it, he threw Trump's name out earlier today to try to push the blame onto the White House.
You see, costs are out of control because of Obamacare. So repeal Obamacare and prices will go down!

Republicans are the dumbest fuvkers ever. They openly praise a racist Democrat while claiming/Co-opting MLK/Lincoln.
The moment the Dems have power, I want Education to be increased to blow these fucking morons out of the water.
with shit like
fuck this guy so much.
You know it also has to be them steaming over Harriet Tubman being put on the 20.

But of course, the Republicans are nothing if not racists
they're probably looking for ways to silently kill that change still

A lot of conservatives think he did nothing wrong!
White House staff is really upset over Snoop Dogg I guess.
So Bannon writes some of the tweets too.

I had your confidence until finding out that because the way they classified the bill, they only need a majority vote in the senate to pass it
That's not quite the Jackson quote, but then again, nobody involved here seems to know how fucking quotation marks work anymore.
And Senate Republicans have already said the bill as is won't pass the Senate.

So they can't explain it properly in press conferences but the President is going to in under 140 characters? How fucking bad are these people at messaging...
She could look disgusted because there's not enough there to go after Trump with. Who knows
I'm just patiently waiting for the other shoe to drop.
What small tweaks specifically? The true believers in the House will never go for it

If Trump did that, it's game over for him. Comey has loyalists in the FBI.
Trump doesn't care and will never believe its game over. He'll go nuclear before allowing anyone he considers beneath him to humiliate him like that.
Hey if that's the only option, hello President Winfrey.
Plinko
Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
Said this after the election. Winfrey or Biden. Let's do this.
I'd pretty much vote for a small dog or tin can over Trump, so whatever. Just get someone not totally fucking nuts that enough people will vote for. Ideally someone who can actually get some other downballot seats taken away from Republicans.

I would hate having to vote for someone with no experience, but unlike Trump I would trust that Oprah would put a pretty good team together
