Between the sanction bill and this, not a good day for the white house.

Some Republicans are just backstabbers. Guys like McCain should just leave. RINOs as it turns out.

They had years to prepare something to replace the ACA, them not being ready to do so, is solely their own fault.

Don't be mad at the three that voted no, be mad at all of them for not having a plan in place to be voted on when they got their first chance.

This should've been done and signed on Trumps first day.

Thank you. I didn't vote for Trump so we could have a slightly less crappy version of Obamacare.

Personally I wish the gov would get completely OUT of healthcare but there are $$$$$ to be made from stupid people who don't realize the solution is being able to shop around to providers out of state and find the plan YOU NEED at the best price.

But since that isn't going to happen, they need a plan that actually is more cost effective than the current boondoggle but at the same time don't turn your HMO into the DMV. Problem is you can't give everyone "free shit" and expect it to cost less. That is why Obamacare premiums were starting to spike up hard. Sure you're covered....if you can make the payments.

Problem is the guy whose job it is to kick ass and make people start working on real world solutions and then vote for it is one of the guys who is part of the freaking problem. At least Trump has killed the mandate in the meantime so I'm not paying for everyone else's healthcare while at the same time not being able to afford healthcare for myself.

That first Obama penalty was really offensive to me.

It's all Trumps fault I tell you!

Well him and the CCCP . . .

Didn't these asshats pass a repeal during Obama knowing full well he would veto it. They can do it for show but can't do it for real?

I have a feeling that that scumbag voted NO just because Trump is president.

They just look like a bunch of monkeys trying to eff a football.

The Republicans, especially the establishment Republicans are no better than the Democrats. (Not that I will ever vote for a Democrat) People voted for Trump because they were sick of the PC, liberal/progressive direction of out country under Obama, and the Dems. Now we are seeing the Republicans fighting Trump on everything the American people wanted in a vote for Trump. We need to primary out the establishment Republicans. RINO's.

That is the perfect summary of our current situation.
The Swamp is deep and the people living and thriving in it do not want any change that might make them get rich(er) at a slower rate or possibly, actually have to serve the Voters who put them in to office.
From the article;
At least three Republicans - John McCain, Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski - voted against the bill, which needed a simple majority to pass.
People need to remember the names of these two spoilers, the third no longer serves the people of Arizona and might no longer have the mental capacity to serve in office.
So, remind me again why he is still sitting in that chair?

Where are you guys seeing only 3?

There were 7... not to mention that 6 of the 7 were "repeal" votes back when Obama was in office.

The GOP vote on a clean repeal of Obamacare failed today, 45-55.

7 GOP no votes on straight repeal:
•Alexander (TN)
•Capito (WV)
•Collins (ME)
•Heller (NV)
•McCain (AZ)
•Murkowski (AK)
•Portman (OH)

Then there is tidbit.... as if we didn't know. Eric Cantor has come out and said he lied to the American People about his stance on Obamacare simply to get votes.

Link from Rachel Maddow... Rachel, now if only half the Dems would admit the whole ObamaCare deal was a lie we might get somewhere. We in VA knew Eric was a tool and got rid of him. Now you get rid of Schumer and his ilk.

I believe they did about 40 some times.
But can't do it for real, amazing.
