President Donald Trump on Monday morning published a mildly threatening tweet about the Senate GOP’s effort to repeal and replace Obamacare, urging senators to pass legislation this summer.
I cannot imagine that Congress would dare to leave Washington without a beautiful new HealthCare bill fully approved and ready to go!

Trump’s tweet came amid intense uncertainty that the Senate can pass a bill to repeal the Affordable Care Act as senators have yet to come out with a grand deal. Over the weekend, Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) said that he thinks the bill is dead, and Sen. Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV) said she has no reservations about killing the bill if she thinks it could hurt her constituents.
Senate Republicans only have a few weeks to pass the bill before they leave the Capitol for a month-long recess in August. The House would then need to approve the Senate version before the legislation could be sent to Trump’s desk.
Oh, how much better life in America would be if we could just repeal Trump!
…and replace later.
Behold, the force of propaganda at it’s finest. America elected someone who shouldn’t be trusted to lead a 4 year old to the crapper.
Shouldn’t you be planning on exactly how you are going to throw your son and son-in-law under the bus rather than worrying about legislative matters?
“Beautiful new Health Care bill?” “Beautiful?” WTF??
