Political Hippo Circle Jerk - America, farg YEAH!

I don't think full repeal will happen. Collins, Portman, and Murkowski can't allow millions of their voters to be stripped of health care with no other option in sight.

It's one thing to vote for Repeal when it's fantasy but another when it means no insulin for diabetic voters who, though they wont' admit it, liike their insulin better than their red baseball caps.

i agree it probably doesnt happen but its definitely not off the table...i can see a full repeal stretched out over x amount of years with a promise of a "much better" replacement coming...that way the conservatives (and trump) can fulfill their promise of repeal while the moderates can say this wont effect anyone right away and by the time the repeal kicks in we will have a better plan in place

yeah i'd be surprised if this isn't over by the end of the day. then everyone can go home to regularly scheduled recess.

hillary was far worse for democrats than bernie....literally anyone but her would have won...just an awful candidate

Diomedes · July 18, 2017, 01:35:32 PM

Sorry but Bernie wasn't gonna beat Trump, either.

ice grillin you · July 18, 2017, 01:36:57 PM

he actually would have waxed trump

well waxed is probably too strong but he would have won...she only needed about 50k more votes total in wisky and pennsie....he probably would have gotten more than 50k more in each of those states...she didnt even campaign in wisconsin...and largely ignored pennsylvania

Obama's complaints about Republicans stopping his agenda are BS since he had full control for two years. He can never take responsibility.
