I'm betting Ryan wants to postpone it but most GOPeers want it to go, to fail, and to allow them to move on to other shit. Like tax cuts.

Btw, he's the Speaker so he's in charge and should decide for himself. If it's fact that he's allowing himself to be influenced by his Party then he's even more of a weak leader than I imagined.

(46,166 posts)I haven't been able to watch the committee hearings this week. No stomach for it. But I want to watch this vote tomorrow. Probably because it's a lose-lose for the GOP.
Earlier I read how one compromise Trump agreed to recently, maybe today, was to remove the basic services required by the ACA. Really?
Omg, Stinky, the Republicans will be eviscerated if this turd passes. Pass the popcorn.

Here is a twitter thread. I don't know if this guy is covering it in real time or what the deal is. Lots of insurance mumbo jumbo, so I assume they know what they're talking about
