Democrats are just a large subset of that population.

1). Calling it "RyanCare"...it WAS, because we all know who the "architect" was, but the minute Trump started pimping it, it became "TrumpCare." But by calling it "RyanCare," he's leaving the door open for Trump to do what the Freedom Caucus really wants, which is to gut Obamacare completely in order to finance tax cuts for millionaires

2). Democrats don't want to get within 10 feet of Donald Trump, and neither does the Freedom Caucus, because they were largely responsible for sinking RyanCare.

3). There is no "deal" for Trump to make here. The Freedom Caucus told Bannon to kiss their ass. No fear of Bannon means no fear of Trump. And if Trump does "work with Democrats," he'll lose the Freedom Caucus, Ryan, and all other "like-minded" Republicans in the process. There is no way in hell that these Republicans will sign off on anything other than stripping Obamacare down to the bone.
