Lol, Trump Says Dems Now 'Own' Obamacare

...says Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer now own Obamacare. Trump whining several times that no Democrats voted for his health care bill.

Of course, Obamacare passed without republican votes in either the House or Senate.

Yeah, we own it, proudly so, even as you're trying to distance yourself from the bill you were promoting just hours ago.

Remember when all the Republicans shut down the government and swore they would never take any credit for Clinton's budget? And how, when it was so successful, Clinton came out and said he would hold them to that? LOL

...of course, this was their original taunt when the bill was first passed, the origin of the term 'Obamacare.'

what I really can't wait for is for the GOP to start demanding we stop calling it Obamacare.

He's such an ignorant prick. No humility. No grasp on reality.

. . . seeing as how you PULLED your vaunted "Replacement" from a wingnut-controlled vote. Sorry, you KNOW it's popular and kicking 24 million people off of insurance (and bankrupting others once you ace the pre-existing condition ban) would put a serious dent on the KGOP's governmental stranglehold.

In time, this whole thing will all be a "what was I thinking" among American voters.

Hopefully.

He's just saying something stupid, and obvious, like it's an accusation. Like the Dems didn't want anyone to know they were opposing der drumpf's will, and he's exposing them. Just trying to reframe the story.

The Dems owned it, when they passed it with no repug support in '09. Dems weren't hiding their actions in opposing destruction of the ACA this year, they were using a megaphone.

Now he wants to pretend that he's exposing some secret plot by his Dem enemies.

Stupid bitch.

He means only that we own its failure, and I think that's wrong.
