Unfortunately for some, their own political careers are at stake. Constituents over and over again, all over the country, have been telling their representatives how much they hate this legislation. The question of the hour is, will they listen to those whom they are supposed to represent, or to the Idiot in the White House, who really only wants to boast that he killed the ACA? They also know how much he lies.
Many of those voting today were behind the Dump Trump campaign that failed. Well, here's their chance. Give him what he wants and probably kill their own political careers, or make his head explode.
Actually, I suspect, the better question might be: are they going to be spineless and cave, or discover that they have actually grown a pair over night?
And don't forget that dandy Randy Paul, who's trying to bolster his own conservative cred by cheering on the 'nay sayers.'
In the end, it wouldn't surprise me if this kettle of worms gets pushed to one of the back burners where with the other GOP pots of shit where it can simmer for years.
my rep (Brendan Boyle, D) is voting NO; he KNOWS this bill is a POS. AND he KNOWS that his constituents are AGAINST the dump and this POS bill.
ReplyDeleteI hope the dump's head explodes!
The 'do nothing party" does nothing... again.
