I don't know if the GOP will try another bill. The current one took months to put together and it is a half baked piece of poo poo. But maybe I am wrong.

Myabe they will do something like only removing the mandate to make their base happy. But they clearly don't have a defendable system to replace it with.

they're gonna try at least one more time. they can't give up this early. it's only been two months since the term began

doesn't particularly matter if they succeed but they've gotta at least look like they're putting some real effort into it

The issue is reconciliation. They want the bill passed now because they need it done for this fiscal year's budget or they can't do it with 50 votes. Trump's top agenda item is tax cuts, so if this goes down it's dead.

Please, everyone knows that refers to a very narrow gate that required unpacking the camels and hauling everything on foot or only very lightly loading the camels so they could squeeze through. Its meant to demonstrate that the rich man needs to do some planning and create jobs by either hiring porters or more camels to get past the gate! We need laxer labor laws so the job creators aren't held back so we can get more rich men into Heaven!

I'm not sure why ya'll think the Dems have changed when there's a million datapoints that they're resisting all change.

What's going to happen is the current AHCA is going to crash then Tom Friedman will write 100 versions of the same op-ed about how everyone needs to come together and solve the critical problem of the budget deficit and the Dems will compromise with Ryan on a deal that block grants Medicaid but keeps the subsidies.

i mean, with the exception of my malcolm-tuckeresque meltdown to friends and family after that dismissive email bullshit escapade i got from the state party outreach committee, my salt has been pretty much contained to this thread. because that's what this thread is for and there's a lot of dead air in between people saying dumb poo poo on twitter because why the gently caress do people treat twitter seriously in the first place?

and sure, you can yell at the monkey for making GBS threads all over everything in the house and masturbating whenever and wherever it feels, but the person who looked at that monkey and thought "i could beat that monkey in a game of chess" and brought it into the house in the first place holds a certain degree of culpability. because that person swore up and down that they were a grandmaster at chess and had all their friends swear up and down they were really good at chess and browbeat and mock those who even off-handedly questioned that person's ability to play chess because they kept referring to things like how a duke moves around the board or when you get to roll again. but everybody went along with it. and for a while, even i believed it. then it turns out when the match begins, the person gets loving blindsided by a goddamned fool's mate. and that only ended up happening by random-assed chance because the pieces moved as the monkey knocked his knuckles against the table as it was jerking it for the fifth time in the previous twenty minutes.

and instead of apologizing for bringing that monkey into the house in the first place and making some sort of effort towards cleaning up all of the poo poo and jizz that they were indirectly responsible for staining the upholstery and rug, that person decided to gently caress off on a series of nature hikes.

things are terrible and we all have a share in why things are so hosed up and bullshit.

the salt must flow.

i really should have prefaced that previous post of mine with

but an hour trip to the craft store turned into six hour ordeal on account of a flat tire, a forgotten jack, two stripped out lug nuts, and what (thankfully ended up being) a twenty dollar tow bill. my mental acuity has suffered somewhat today.

I was organizing for my union yesterday and forgot to feed the meter and got a 40 dollar parking ticket which is further evidence of state power suppressing workers' movements.
