Don’t think for a New York second that Trump gives a damn about the misery of real people like us. I’d bet Trump doesn’t even know how to drive a car or self checkout some groceries. He doesn’t care if his actions cause us to suffer.

Unlike tards on this board, I don't have heroes in government. That's weak shite, Jake.

He told congress to fix it.

Congress sends him a bill that fixes it.

Not seeing the issue.

Well other then the fact that he promised to repeal it on day one of his administration....but like many of his campaign promises...that was a lie.

A wise man would have stayed out of this. But Trump had to have a “win” and now he owns what comes, better or worse.

And it looks like the shite sandwich is getting worse.

trump took them away by court ruling?


The House Republicans sued the Obama Admin for providing $7 billion in subsidies to insurance companies. That money was not appropriated by congress. Johnathan Turley was the plaintiffs’ attorney. The executive branch (Obama administration) lost.

Last week Trump signed an EO basically telling his admin to follow the court decision. Democrats spun it as Trump is taking money from the poor and trying to sabotage Obamacare.

So now we are here. Congress has to appropriate in order make the subsidies legal.

True...did he not think the EO out?...no reason to go back on his "taxpayers shouldn't be subsidizing insurance companies stock prices" ramble....I'm a Trump/non-political class supporter, but how does he/his advisers not figure this out? hell, I heard him say today, in so many words..."we'll continue to let the tax payers continue to guarantee tax industry profits for two years, and fix it before then"....someone please explain this to me

What I find absolutely hilarious is how everyone has known shitty the ACA has been. Everyone, left and right knows it's a fricking failure.

But now the left is finally being honest now that it's the other guys problem it's fricking hilarious.

Trump owns this shite now

Nope. OBAMAcare will always be OBAMAS legacy and biggest failure. At least our resident lefties are finally willing to admit it's absolute shite now that it's "trumps" problem.

This bullshite bill needs to go the way of the dodo bird.

Hopefully the freedom caucus stand strong against this bill.

It's repeal of ObamaCare or nothing.

Another dumbarse saying that needs to be stricken from political discussion. If Perot doesn't run in 92 then GHWB cruises to being reelected.

I like how Trump and Republicans in Congress keep saying that Obamacare is failing on its own (which, I agree it is), but yet they keep throwing it lifelines. Makes no sense.

He needs to veto it and tell republicans to repeal Obamacare care like they promised the voters . He is not s career politician so it's no big deal if it cost him the election in 2020 . If it turns out that bad Republicans will get destroyed in the senate and house elections. They all need to do what they promised.

This is a good thing. It will 100% cause the whole government run health insurance disaster to collapse. It is the easiest way to get Obamacare repealed.

I call BS on this....think about it, this would simply let the marketplace and consumers and unfortunately the ER's to go back to before the ACA...we were all happy with our coverage and cost
