    They held out until the election was over. They had the voters behind them on this and naturally betrayed them immediately as soon as they got what they wanted.

    C’mon guys. The Republicans are totally going to fix healthcare just like they promised in 1993, 2002, 2008, 2010, 2016 2017, 2020, 2024, The Last Week.

    Shouldn’t take more than about two weeks.

    But they got a “promise” on a vote later.

    I mean can you blame them? They dug their heels in and said we’re are only going to compromise if they give into our health care demands.

    The Republicans said no to this so the shutdown began. They were about to find a compromise, but suddenly the Republicans said no again (Trumpy wants to play replace Romney Care again)

    This is when you have to cave, when you don’t get what you want and nothing was resolved. After all, after 10+ years with nothing to replace it the Republicans have got to be allowed some more time.
