1. Time is running out

The republicans are gonna ram through as much crap as they can before the Trump administration totally collapses.

4. They really want to lose in 18...doubt they can touch medicare and get it out of the House.

[Proud Liberal Dem]

8. At best, whatever the House passes gets bottled up in the Senate

where they are probably going to be "working" on repealing/replacing ACA for the foreseeable future.

[Demsrule86]

10. I don't get what Ryan is thinking...has he deluded himself into believing he can sell

his hate filled agenda? I would not be surprised if mods in the Senate 'fix' Obamacare in a bipartisan move and then we will see what McConnell does.. Schumer seems to have no objection...he has offered to work with the GOP ...just take the 'repeal' out.

[Proud Liberal Dem]

12. He "smells blood in the water" is all I can think

Circumstances for Ryan to fulfill his Randian "Kegger Days" dream of cutting/killing Medicare/Medicaid and the social safety in general net have never been and probably never will be better anytime in the foreseeable future, hence his continued support for Donald Trump, who will gladly sign whatever the Republican Congress puts on his desk for him to sign (he is a Republican with working digits).

13. Yeah and it may be his blood...Ryan's blood.

2. Medicare reform equals coupons

Ryan wants to replace the defined benefit program with a coupon that seniors would get toward buying a health insurance plan on the open market. In other words: seniors pay more and get less.

3. They can shovel it where sun don't shine!

NOT!!!!!!

5. I really hope Ryan and those other scum encounter some very bad condition, go through a lot of pain,

find they aren't covered

These are evil people, and they really want to hurt the most vulnerable in our society

7. Greedy rat bastards

Sick and tired of their bullshit. I hate the whole "choice" and "access" nonsense. It's a whole lot of nothing. It limits choice and access because the poor can't afford wealthcare.

9. Ryan what a hypocrite

will take away healthcare from millions but kissing up to tRump to keep his. Horrible people I hate republicans always have always will.

[workinclasszero]

11. "Medicare reform" is republican speak for

Killing Medicare.

14. It's political suicide.

He must be thinking about retiring. Or expecting to be defeated in the next election.
Either way he has made plenty of money from all the grifting he has done.
