What happens when the Freedom Caucus calls Trump's PP bluff

Twice now, Trump has trolled the Freedom Caucus about PP funding and the AHCA. What happens when the Freedom Caucus pushes a bill defunding PP not tied to healthcare reform next time the House is in session?

Republicans cry about about babies being born on Medicare, but are against plan parenthood. Hypocrits

Because he's consistently praised PP.

Never complained about babies being born. Complained countless times about liberals idea that its better to kill babies than teach our citizens not to get knocked up or to actually take responsibility and use contraception, free condoms at every health clinic.+
Good job admitting the real reason you're OK with murder.
At least you didn't use the rape/incest excuse to justify it, which accounts for 1% of our million or millions of abortions per year.

Can't even spell it correctly either. Hilarious.

First they actually have to BE born, and not murdered by Democrats.

The freedom caucus is interesting because I totally understand being a purist. When I'm discussing issues with people I tend to stick with being a purist.
But as people who Focus heavily on the original intent of the Constitution you would think the freedom caucus would recognize one key reality
Our country and government isn't built to allow purism. The very structure of it demands a level of pragmatism.
Frankly this is a problem that spreading in America. The all-or-nothing zero defect approach to government. Look I know what I want the government to look like. And if I could wave a magic wand that's what it would look like
But we've come to think that if you give in on anything in order to have some pragmatism that you're a hypocrite. We see that on the left and we see it on the right with the freedom caucus.
I just don't understand how otherwise smart people can't figure that out

I'm not sure on the numbers here but your rape counter is fricked if you think we have millions. I haven't seen anything reliable to say over a million or really even close to a million.

So we agree child birth should be covered by the government.

Typical conservative areas are the ones demanding abstinence only education or that it's not the government's business should be exclusively taught at home.

It dies in the Senate like it did in 2015.
