Trump campaigned on a platform of being a great businessman, a great deal maker. One of his largest promises was to repeal Obamacare.
So what has this TREMENDOUS businessman done so far? Well, he failed to pass his muslim ban (twice) and now, in his first real chance to show his negotiating mettle, he's failed to get rid of obamacare. Of course he blames democrats, but the fact is he couldn't even convince his own party...
It was a pretty bad bill. They kept saying there would be 2 more parts, but no word on what those parts would be and why they aren't included now. I'm pretty sure they didn't have a specific plan, they just wanted to assure people that this wasn't all, because they knew it was lackluster. They needed 218 votes, they hold 237 seats.
I'd be quite embarrassed. They've been talking big about this for soooo long...and now they have the keys to govern both houses of congress and the White House... and they fail.
Maybe in the next bill they'll try including some provisions that might actually help some people?
Seems sort of characteristic of the trump campaign and presidency. He has terrific plans, the best plans!...but they tend to be a little underdeveloped when it come time to implement them
@UnparalleledMonster: I know these two little setbacks have got you retards all excited but by all accounts, actual legal scholars, trump's "muslim ban" will be affirmed by the SC. The law is very clear and we all know judges that use inadmissible "evidence" usually get overturned. Hello, 9th circuit, the most overturned court in the country, time after time. They like to legislate from the bench and that's not acceptable. Anyway, they didn't get quite enough votes on a godawful bill to replace another horrible bill, BFD. We're not even 100 days in, so you're getting just a little ahead of yourselves by calling this a failure. It's no different at this point than it was for dumbocrats when they tried to pass obozocare. Well, one difference, pelosi strong armed, or if you prefer, bullied, the last few house members to vote yes or else. repubs don't work that way, thank god. Enjoy what you think is a loss. It will make the win later all the more difficult for you retards to swallow. And I really hope you don't choke on it. ha ha ha
Me: when you have nothing to say, you rely on insults and excuses
You:
you retards
dumbocrats
obozocare
It will make the win later all the more difficult...
Haahahahaha! Case in POINT.
Sorry, katie, how was that in ANY way meant to be a rebuttal? All you did was throw around a bunch more insults and then (as you've been forced to do more and more frequently) cited a hypothetical future victory.
I said that i'd seen you intelligently discuss a subject. This is not one of those times.
LOL that was deeelicious. I can't say i'm impressed, but i am delighted.
Now run away because that's what you do when you know you're wrong. Or make some more excuses and vomit out some more insults. Whichever you feel will help you save the most face... 😆😜
he is (i hope) realizing the government is not like big business. as a sales tactic, saying " i'm done" in a negotiation really means you know you'll win because the other person in the negotiation needs you more than you need them. but that wll never work in government because the president will always need the house and senate more.
You need to turn on FOX. I caught a bit earlier. I didn't know this but it turns out this is really a VICTORY for Donald Trump. The pundits and host told the audience why. With simple words and easy to understand concepts. Fascinating to watch a real mind fuck take place.
The President didn't create what was a bad bill. He supported Ryan. Tried to be a republican team player. Next time around we will be a good bill that is masterminded by the White House. Passing this bill would have done no one any good.
