Concerned Citizen posted:it's not looking too good for the bill at the moment. they clearly do not have 50 votes in the senate. remains to be seen if they can work out a compromise. The Kochs are also opposing it full-force because it's not a full repeal. Americans for Prosperity is openly threatening GOP congressmen who vote for it.

Either the Republicans are humiliated or millions of Americans including myself become significantly closer to death so I'm calling this a win-win situation

Sloober posted:GOP has had a bogeyman to raise or make people fear about for the entirety of this last decade, they're not giving up their cash cows. What are they going to run off of if abortion is banned and the PPACA is gone? Transgender rights are the latest front in the culture war, far as I know.

Pollyanna posted:This is basically what's gonna happen. All this whinging over the current attempt at passing the AHCA is a smokescreen to hide Price gutting the ACA. We're fighting the wrong battle. It's not a smokescreen, it's Trump refusing to accept a loss and screaming at the GOP to keep trying until they get it right. They'll try to gut it anyway, but this is not a calculated maneuver.

empty whippet box posted:so what's your income level arkane? I like how you just ignore the questions that you know will expose how completely full of poo poo you are. If you aren't getting a subsidy but can afford coverage then you that means you make a pretty decent amount of money, and are probably just mad that poors and minorities are helped by the ACA. He's a literal millionaire.

Alligator Horse posted:The real danger I see deriving from the House victory is that both chambers know the base was promised repeal/replace. What specific form that takes isn't as important as dealing a devastating blow to Obama's legacy. The Senate knows this. The HFC are saber rattling trying to dissuade the Senate from making sweeping changes to the bill, but at the end of the day Trump and Ryan are going to whip hard as can be once the Senate's version—should it pass—makes it back down to the House. You're not wrong.

tetrapyloctomy posted:I'll believe it when I see its corpse. Only the grim brooding desert gods know what really took place, etc., etc. That tweet was posted last night, it hasn't been confirmed, and if it was true then its likes/retweets would have skyrocketed by now. Probably wishful thinking.
