Agreed. I would much rather have found out that Trump said something more along the lines of "if you don't vote for repeal I'll run a campaign against your re-election" but when you get right down to it he's right and was actually down-playing voter sentiment by not being more strident in his statement.

Many voters that cast their votes for Trump did so with the belief that he would lead the charge for Repeal then Replace. Many also voted for the GOP Congress due to those members claiming the same stance. Those who balk may well not win re-election as enough voters now seem to be paying long enough to hold their members of Congress accountable during their next election.
