LAST EDITED ON Mar-24-17 AT 06:00PM (MST)[p]+1 Nemont, better yet I love it when McConnell whines about the Dems being obstructionists. No matter, it was what some us expected it to be, crap, so no shock there.
Now Dear Leader will punish the people for questioning his love of all us. All hail Dear Leader

"What's less clear is how much Trump is intentionally contributing to Obamacare?s problems. Trump has said he's resisting the temptation, because ?we have to do what's right,? and the White House sent me its three-pronged health care plan (including ?regulatory reforms to stabilize insurance markets?) as proof.
But the president has already done several things that undermine Obamacare?weakening enforcement of its insurance mandate, canceling its latest ad campaign and intensifying uncertainty about its future?although not everything he's done has undermined it.
In any case, Obamacare is facing its most serious crisis since it launched with a dysfunctional website in 2014. Insurers will decide later this spring whether to continue offering coverage on Obamacare?s exchanges, and the combination of Trump?s election, the Republican push for repeal and the new administration?s early efforts to undercut the law has created new fears of the kind of mass exodus that GOP critics have been predicting for years.
Even if the repeal bill stalls in Congress, Trump will have a lot of power to try to deepen Obamacare?s problems and enhance his argument for repeal?or to try to solve the problems and take a different type of victory lap. Trump keeps insisting that a collapse would be great news for Republicans, because it would highlight the incompetence of Democrats, while heightening the need for reforms that would reduce costs and improve care.
But even setting aside the policy implications of such a massive upheaval, some experts question Trump?s political analysis.
