Trump: 'Republican Senators are total quitters' if they abandon ObamaCare repeal
Source: The Hill
President Trump on Saturday blasted Senate Republicans for giving up the fight on healthcare, saying that senators should demand another vote before any other legislation is considered.
"Unless the Republican Senators are total quitters, Repeal & Replace is not dead!" Trump tweeted Saturday.
"Demand another vote before voting on any other bill!" he added.

"If a new HealthCare Bill is not approved quickly, BAILOUTS for Insurance Companies and BAILOUTS for Members of Congress will end very soon!" he added.

Trump is really, truly 'trolling' us now.

(19,195 posts)Trump spent ZERO time trying to convince ANYONE that his "wealthcare" plan was the best idea. He KNEW it was a piece of crap, but continued to ask for it anyway. And that's all he WAS ASK, or demanded really, he didn't try to sell it to the American people (if it was SOOOOOO good!) he just played golf, watched TV, ate two scoops - often, and stirred up trouble with EVERYONE within his orbit.
He's a lazy bag of shit.
