So, we know Trump lost by over 3 million votes.

So, we know that for the House and the Senate, even though the Democrats are in the minority they obtained over 12 million more votes than all the Republicans in congress…the Republicn majority comes purely from rigged gerrymandering of the districts in states like Texas. But the congress has 12 million more votes for Democrats than for Republicans.

And yet the Democrats are getting zero input or consideration under the Paul Ryan - Paul Manafort (Trump) Healthcare bill. It’s really Putin’s healthcare bill bcause Putin wants to destroy the US Democracy which means taking away rights to the bottom 90% of Americans…especially taking away healthcare rights.

Anyone taking bets ?

Does Dave Brat a) Folds or b) Collects the Koch’s check?

I am willing to bet for “a”, because that put’s him more in alignment with his voters who “want to give Trump a chance” and because the bill will likely get killed in the Senate anyways, so there won’t be any surprises for the aforementioned Trump voters that demand the repeal of ACA.

A Republican with a PHD in economics…every person that works for a living should quake in their boots when this human farce opens his mouth.

This once again shows the Republican’s obsession with TACTICS over STRATEGY.
All they care about is WINNING TODAY the future be-damned!
This is why they shoot themselves in the face all the time (thank your God) because they don’t EVER think beyond today’s headlines.
Trump especially MUST WIN on everything or his fee-fees get hurt and his “manhood” is called into question.
(All the coke and Russian Pee-Hookers in the world can’t salve that massive ego once he feels he has LOST something.)
It is all about APPEARANCES with the Republicans, because they are a Sham and a Hollow Party with NOTHING behind the Bumper-Sticker-Values they robotically recite whenever you challenge them on what their actions REALLY MEAN in the “Real World” to “Real People”.
If it wasn’t so destructive it would just be sad.

“We all want to get to yes, we want to see a very successful Trump agenda.”

No, Grillmeister, “we” do not all.

“our promise to our constituents was we’re going to repeal, for six years. It wasn’t repeal and replace.” - Dave Brat, March 2017

“We’ve been running on repealing and replacing Obamacare since 2010.” - Paul Ryan, March 2017

“We all want to get to yes,” but we’re still debating what “yes” means. It’s an unbelievably complex subject, nobody knew that screwing people out of their health care could be so complicated.

Dave is a coward who blocks people on facebook.

I think it’s “just as long as we reduce the taxes that the very wealthy pay.”
