White House chief of staff Reince Priebus on Sunday said it is up to Senate Republicans to improve the House bill to repeal and replace Obamacare that passed last week.
“It’s up to the Senate, if there are improvements to be made, to make those improvements,” Priebus said on “Fox News Sunday.”
He said Republicans are “committed to getting this thing done and getting it done as soon as possible” and denied that celebrations at the White House last week were premature.
“I think we were right to give the Congress an attaboy in the Rose Garden,” Priebus said. “But we also know that this is just the beginning, it’s the first step.”
What does that even mean? Did they ask him what he means by “improvements”? I suspect we don’t have the same definition.
Certainly.
Why, one of my all-time favorite quotes is, The journey of a thousand miles begins with throwing yourself a blowout after the first step.
Apologies to Lao Tzu.
I’m guessing that those “improvements” do not involve making healthcare more affordable for the average American, as they could have done that years ago by simply expanding Medicare to cover everyone.
Actually, Wrenched, the Repubbies in the House have had seven fucking years to write the bill. Motherfuckers should have gotten it right after all those years.
“attaboy” is right. All boys.
