Since when do we want Washington DC to DO SOMETHING, not giving a shite what that SOMETHING is?

We derided John McCain, Graham, Boehner, and all the rest of the cuckstablishment for trying to get things done for the sake of getting something done. Now, we want Paul fricking Ryan to pass what we all know to be terrible legislation? You know damn well that there won't be a "phase 2" or 3.

We as a board also derided giant bills that threw everything and the kitchen sink into one bill. Omnibus spending, "comprehensive XYZ" et al were enough to make this board spit fire. Now, that's exactly what we want?

Help me out here. Tell me it's something other than sycophants wanting "a win" for their guy. It's either that, or you are actually OK with the establishment you supposedly elected Trump to defeat.

If it removed the requirement to purchase health insurance, then it was a better bill than what we have now.

Good luck getting anything else passed.

Thank you. I hate when gun control fanatics are like "we have to try anything to stop it, just something". Seriously, screw those people that propose bad legislation for the sake of "doing something" and screw the people willing to throw away their principles for Trumpism.

Trump seems to be plenty angry that this "bad bill" didn't pass. What's the matter with him?

IT WAS A MEANS TO AN END, PEOPLE!!

It was the opening gambit in a negotiation with the Senate.
Ryan needed to get something out of the House to start the process. It was designed for mark-up/amendment under reconciliation in the Senate. The bill would have opened paths to modification in several planned phases.

Instead, we have Obamacare.

Knew when POTUS Trump said kids could stay on parent's policies and "everyone" would have great healthy insurance he was just talking some variant of ObarryMedicaidCare (OMC).

Just kept wishin' and a hopin' that someway or somehow it could be done properly. You can dumb yourself into anything if you try hard enough.

The death spiral toward govt. single payer is inching closer fans.

It stopped Medicaid expansion

It gave the high risk pool bait

stopped the fines in employers

Instead. We got nothing.

Yep. You're right.

Put a good, conservative bill before the POTUS.
