And, in the first quarter he needs 60 votes.

I am also betting Murkowski and Portman would have been NO votes, and MAYBE Capito. McCain and Collins' NO votes meant they didn't have to say anything.

He* is trying to make it appear that he and his russian-backed republican cronies are actually WINNERS** - it just hasn't happened yet. Beware the daily deluge of republican bullshit. Their lies are dangerous for American democracy.

Any bill needs to get past the filibuster with 60 votes just to get up for the up/down vote in the senate. There are only 52 Republican senators. Does Trump actually expect any Democratic senators are going to support Republicans in killing off Obamacare?
