Trump-Ryan Health Care bill - Withdrawn, MAJOR DEFEAT (updated))
The Trump-Ryan Health Care bill has been pulled from a vote in the House of Representatives at the request of President Trump and Speaker of the House Paul Ryan. It is a Dead Bill - now.
Trump and Republicans had campaigned for over seven (7) years to Repeal and Replace the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) and the House took over 60+ formal votes to repeal the ACA and claim that the could do better - but the TRUTH is the Republicans had NO Health Care Plan and in just over 20 days tried to ram through their cobbled together bill that could not please or get enough votes within the Presidents own Republican Party - that the Republican Party is fractured and unable to do what is right for the American People, let alone for its own Party.
Trump cannot govern - His administration is mired in a Russian scandal, his choice of Cabinet members are weak, inexperienced Carson, Perry, DeVos, Scott, etc) and can't move their agencies forward to help the American people. He can't get his legislative agenda moving forward.
PS..President Trump held a press conference at the White House after he requested that the Trump-Ryan Health Care bill be pulled from a vote and he showed - just how "out of touch' and ignorant he is about being the President of the United States.
He blamed the House Democrats for not being able to pass the TRHC Act, ignoring the fact that he didn't need one Democratic vote and the fact that he - Trump, the great deal maker, couldn't get enough House Republican, his own Party, votes to pass the bill. He was defeated by the House Freedom Caucus who stood firm against him and he lost moderate Republicans on a bill that was created without public iinput or a majority Republican input, a bill created behind closed and locked doors.
