Analysis A White House dinner as a case study for Trump's inability to close a health-care deal

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

As the blame game launches on the Senate health-care bill, there is perhaps no more illustrative example of President Trump's role in the negotiations than this:

It's Monday evening. A second version of the Republicans' bill is in danger of flatlining. Two GOP senators are opposed to it, almost a dozen have expressed serious concerns with it, and if just one more Republican opposes it, it's game over for an Obamacare overhaul.

Trump is having dinner at the White House with seven Republican senators to talk health care. Of the seven, only Steve Daines (Mont.) had publicly expressed concerns about the bill.

As they dined, fellow Republican Sens. Mike Lee (Utah) and Jerry Moran (Kan.) were crafting statements that would implode the GOP's attempts to unravel Obamacare for the foreseeable future.

That Trump was completely blindsided by the news that the bill was effectively dead shows, despite his rhetoric on Twitter and in public appearances, how unable or unwilling Trump has been to influence the outcome of the health-care debate.

Maybe next time Trump will invite Senators from both parties and feed them something better than Kentucky Fried Chicken and overcooked steak.

1. No, he's not capable of learning (especially from his own mistakes).

He never apologizes, is the smartest and best person in any room, he's a stud/playboy, and his ego wouldn't allow him to even consider anything different.
