“I happen to believe he doesn't care what the plan is," he said.

"I don't care what he said, but I know that if he can get something through, he’s not going to [say], ‘I'm an ideological guy on healthcare.’ "

Republicans tried to revive their healthcare bill this week after the original GOP plan failed to win enough Republican votes in the House.

Negotiations between lawmakers exacted some concessions for conservatives, including a path for states to opt out of some ObamaCare provisions. But no vote has been scheduled, and whether the party has enough support to pass a bill remains unclear.

1. He's a petty, spiteful man who only wants to overturn the ACA

to poke a finger into Obama's eye for making jokes at his expense at a roast.

No, he doesn't give a damn if anything replaces it as long as it's overturned. The Republican Party as a whole agrees with him, they've had seven years to come up with a workable alternative and they've done nothing.

That's right, nothing.

They need to be pilloried for this. No one has the guts to do it.

2. Yes. Like Donald had never been made fun of before Obama came along. Or that Donald was not

racistly denying Obama was born in the USA.

3. One of his favorite stories in an interview for the New Yorker

was about a female reporter writing something unflattering about him. He spilled red wine all over her in public.

This is who he is. He sues people for far less. He is petty, spiteful, and vindictive and has the thinnest skin on the planet.

4. the only thing cheaper and better is single payer.

obama did the best that could be done within the current system.
and i am not sure single payer would embody all the things about ocare that will result in better treatment, and less fraud.

5. He's my governor

I really don't care for him, he's a typical republican but he did expand on Medicaid. Trump doesn't care one way or the other about healthcare he just goes along because he doesn't have a clue.

6. And they're doing this out of pure spite for the previous administration.

It's just wrong!

7. Oh i think the GOP don't want the have nots to age well into their 80s or 90s.

They don't want Medicare to be a social program after all but a voucher program.

[Initech]

8. They will when they realize that's their base.

Without the senior center blasting Fox News (the real news) 24/7 the GOP got nothing.

9. The ones who can afford expensive health care in their 40s, 50s and 60s

will be allowed to live. The poorer ones who don't vote GOP will not.

10. He doesn't know, he doesn't care what's in GOPs AHCA. He also:

...doesn't know, doesn't care what the wall will do to the budget and to property rights and to the environment

...doesn't know, doesn't care what corporate and estate tax slashes will do to the budget, deficit, and debt (prob doesn't know the difference between those terms except that two start with the letter d and one with b)

...doesn't know, doesn't care what will happen to women's rights and voting rights under his AG

...doesn't know, doesn't care what what slashing the State Dept will do to diplomacy and world peace

....doesn't know, doesn't care what ramifications there are for trying to ban followers of Islam from coming to the US

...doesn't know, doesn't care what the political, economic, employment, and diplomatic consequences are of slapping tariffs on goods from Canada

...didn't know, didn't care about hooking his financial and political horses to Putin and other Russian oligarchs in the 90s...and had no idea it was immoral, unfair, illegal (and also fully known by IC), and impeachable to collude with a foreign adversary to corrupt the democratic process

...he just doesn't know and doesn't care

11. Nor does Paul Ryan

So long as the well to do get a big tax cut.

12. John Kasich is now the reasonable Republican?

What a topsy turvy world.
