Republicans Now Blaming Each Other For TrumpCare Sh*tshow

YESTERDAY BREITBART RELEASED DAMAGING AUDIOTAPES OF PAUL RYAN
BEING DISLOYAL TO OUR NEW PRESIDENT, AND TODAY AMIDST AN
UNCERTAIN FUTURE FOR THE OBAMACARE REPEAL BILL PAUL RYAN
IS IN A VERY SUBTLE WAY OF HAVING TO FIGHT BACK.
HE IS
USING THIS TERMINOLOGY NOW, FIGHTING BACK IN THIS WAY.
HE SAID THIS --
>>AND THAT WE WROTE IT WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP, PRESIDENT TRUMP
WAS CO-AUTHOR, IS TERMINOLOGY HE HAS USED OVER THE LAST 24 HOURS.
AND OF COURSE WE KNOW THAT THE PLAN IS EITHER WE PASS IT, OR
THEORETICALLY WE HAVE A PLAN B WHERE IF WE CAN'T PASS IT TRUMP
WILL ATTEMPT TO DISTANCE HIMSELF FROM IT, MINIMIZE THE POLITICAL
DAMAGE THAT CAN BE DONE AS A RESULT OF THE FAILURE, AND LET
OBAMACARE FALL APART UNDER ITS OWN WEIGHT OR SOMETHING TO THAT
EFFECT.
AND TRUMP OR AT LEAST STEVE BANNON APPEARS WILLING TO
LET PAUL AND GO DOWN IN FLAMES, BUT IT LOOKS LIKE PAUL RYAN
WILL TRY TO DRAG TRUMP INTO THOSE FLAMES IF POSSIBLE.
>>TWO PARTS TO THAT STORY, FIRST WAS THE UNPRECEDENTED ATTACK
AGAINST PAUL RYAN ON BREITBART.
THAT WAS CLEARLY THE WHITE HOUSE
FULL FRONTAL ASSAULT AGAINST THE SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE OF THEIR
OWN PARTY.
NOT ONLY DO THEY THROW RYAN UNDER THE BUS WITH
THE AUDIOTAPE SAYING HE WAS DISLOYAL TO TRUMP AND HAVING
TROUBLE VOTERS GET MAD AT PAUL RYAN, NUMBER TWO THEY SAID HE
BUNGLED THIS AND IT'S A MESS AND IT'S NOT GOING TO PASS, IT SO IT
WAS ALREADY DONE.
THIS VERSION OF THE REPUBLICAN HEALTH CARE
BILL WILL NOT PASS THAT BANG BUT NUMBER THREE THEY SAID
REPEATEDLY IN THAT ARTICLE, CLEARLY LEAD BY STEVE
BANNON/DONALD TRUMP, THAT RYAN SHOULD NOT BE SPEAKER OF THE
HOUSE ANYMORE.
THEY WENT FOR A KILL SHOT, THEY ARE LOOKING TO
END HIS CAREER.
SO NOW PAUL RYAN COMES BACK AND GOES, IT WASN'T
ME.
I CO-AUTHORED THIS WITH DUMB ASS DONALD TRUMP.
IF THIS THING GOES UNDER IT'S ALSO DONALD TRUMP'S FAULT.
>>HE ALSO SAID THE SENATE LEADERS TOO.
>>BECAUSE TODAY THE REPUBLICAN SENATE LEADERS GO TO THE WHITE
HOUSE, AND DONALD TRUMP BASICALLY SAYS TO THEM, WE ARE
DONE WITH THIS ONE.
THIS VERSION SUCKS, CENK UYGUR AND THE YOUNG
TURKS WERE RIGHT ABOUT IT -- MAYBE HE LEFT THAT PART OUT --
>>THEY SPECIFICALLY ATTACKED THE HOUSE VERSION.
I HAVE A COUPLE
QUOTES THAT CAME OUT OF THAT MEETING.
A GROUP OF SENATORS MET
AT THE WHITE HOUSE --
>>NOW ALL OF A SUDDEN IT'S THE RYAN BILL.
>>IT IS HOT POTATO, THEY ARE THROWING IT TO THE
WHITE HOUSE,
BACK TO CONGRESS --
>>I INCLUDED THIS BECAUSE OF OUR PREVIOUS CONVERSATION
YESTERDAY --
>>THAT GETS TO THE NARROW TIGHT ROPE THEY HAVE TO WALK -- IT'S
NOT EVEN A TIGHT ROPE, I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU DO THIS.
YOU TAKE A
BILL THAT SOME HATE BECAUSE IT ISN'T CONSERVATIVE ENOUGH, SOME
HATE BECAUSE IT'S TOO CONSERVATIVE, AND TRY TO
SIMULTANEOUSLY MAKE IT WORSE IN BOTH REGARDS.
THAT IS A DIFFICULT PATH.
>>AND CONVINCE 535 MEMBERS THAT ONE OF THESE IS THE OPTION.
THIS
WAS DEAD ON ARRIVAL AT YOUR AGO, I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW PAUL
RYAN, KNOWING VERY WELL THAT THESE PEOPLE COULDN'T -- THEY
COULD NOT WOO OVER THEIR DISTRICTS, AND IT WAS AN
ELECTORAL DISASTER, WHY HE WAS WILLING TO WORK WITH TRUMP AT
ALL.
YOU HAVE TO BE A LINDSEY GRAHAM AT ONE MOMENT AND THAT
WAS IT.
>>NOMI, THEY NEVER HAD A CHOICE BECAUSE PAUL RYAN AND THE
KNUCKLEHEAD REPUBLICANS WERE THE ONES -- WHAT DO THEY DO, I THINK
THEY HAD 55 VOTES TO REPEAL OBAMA CARE WHEN THEY KNEW IT
DIDN'T MATTER, WHEN OBAMA WAS PRESIDENT.
NOW HE IS STUCK, HE
PRETENDED HE WAS GOING TO REPEAL IT ALL ALONG AND HAD NO BATTLE
PLAN FOR WINNING OVER CONSERVATIVES AND MODERATES AT
THE SAME TIME, NO BATTLE PLAN FOR GIVING ALL THE MONEY TO HIS
DONORS LIKE YOU PLANNED ALL ALONG AND SCREWING OVER THE POOR
AND THE UNINSURED AND THE CLASS, AND STILL WINNING ELECTIONS.
HE
NEVER HAD A PLAN.
WE TALK ABOUT HOW DUMB DONALD TRUMP IS AND HOW
WE BUNGLED THIS, BUT PAUL RYAN, FOR ALL HIS ALLEGED WONKISHNESS,
IS NOT THAT MUCH BRIGHTER.
HE JUST DID A PRESS COVERAGE A
COUPLE DAYS AGO TALKING ABOUT, OH, IN OBAMA'S VERSION OF
HEALTHCARE THE HEALTHY PAY FOR THE SICK.
YES, THAT IS
EVERYBODY'S VERSION, THAT'S CALLED HEALTH INSURANCE.
HE IS
SO STUPID HE DID A PRESS CONFERENCE SHOWING HOW DUMB HE
IS.
HE IS LIKE, I GOT A PRESS CONFERENCE, OBAMA THINKS TWO
PLUS TWO EQUALS FOUR.
HE THOUGHT HE WAS BRILLIANT.
THEY HAVE ALL
BUNGLED THIS BECAUSE THEY ARE BUNGLERS, THAT'S WHAT THEY DO.
AND I LIKE THAT THEY ARE CALLING AT THE RYAN BILL, WHEN IT WAS
FIRST ANNOUNCED IT WAS TRUMP CARE.
AND OBAMA AT ONE POINT
SAID I DON'T MIND THAT THEY CALL IT OBAMACARE, BECAUSE WHEN IT
WORKS I'LL GET CREDIT FOR IT.
HE IS LIKE, YOU WILL KNOW IT'S
WORKING WHEN THEY STOP CALLING IT OBAMACARE.
AND FOR A BRIEF
WHILE DURING THE 2014 ELECTIONS THEY ARE LIKE, MITCH MCCONNELL
WAS LIKE, IT'S NOT OBAMACARE, IT'S CONNECTED IN KENTUCKY.
HE PRETENDED TO BE IN FAVOR OF IT.
>>AND IT'S THE MOST POPULAR STATE --
THE STATE WITH THE HIGHEST ENROLLMENT.
>>RIGHT, BECAUSE A LOT OF POOR WHITE FOLKS AND MIDDLE-CLASS
PEOPLE WHO USE OBAMACARE.
SO NOW THEY ARE LIKE, NOT TRUMP CARE,
RYAN CARE.
THAT IS HOW YOU KNOW IT'S NOT POPULAR.
SO HOW WILL
THEY FIX THIS?
I WAS RIGHT ABOUT THIS YESTERDAY WHEN I THOUGHT
THIS WAS THE ROAD THEY WOULD GO DOWN, THIS MEETING WITH
REPUBLICAN SENATORS AND TRUMP CONFIRMS THIS, THEY HAVE A
PROBLEM WITH MODERATES, I NEED FOR PRICES TO BE LOWER FOR
SENIOR CITIZENS BECAUSE THEY ARE BIG VOTERS IN MY DISTRICTS AND I
CAN'T HAVE THEM BEING THROWN OFF INSURANCE, I NEED THAT TO BE
EXTENDED AND I NEED PRICES TO BE LOWER.
ON THE OTHER HAND
CONSERVATIVES WHO ARE FUNDED BY THE DONORS ARE SAYING NO, WE
WANT MEDICAID EXPANSION TO BE CUT EARLIER.
YOU CAN HAVE BOTH
OF THOSE THINGS, SO YOU HAVE TO CHOOSE, AND WHICH WAY IS MORE
LIKELY TO PASS?
THE SENATE REPUBLICAN PLAN IS CHOOSE
CONSERVATIVE, SCREW OVER THE MODERATES, THERE IS A
FILIBUSTER, YOU CAN'T GET 60 VOTES, THAT IS FOR IDIOT
DEMOCRATS WHO PLAY BY THE RULES.
SO THE PROPOSAL IS THAT MIKE
PENCE IS THE HEAD OF THE SENATE COMES IN AND GOES EVEN THOUGH
RECONCILIATION -- THIS IS THE TECHNICAL WAY THEY WOULD PASS
THIS BILL SO IT ONLY NEED 50 VOTES -- IS ONLY FOR BUDGETARY
MATTERS AND THIS CLEARLY IS NOT JUST A BUDGETARY MATTER, DOESN'T
MATTER.
WE JUST RULE THAT IT IS.
MIKE PENCE COMES IN, I'VE NOW
DECIDED EVERYTHING IS BUDGETARY.
IN OTHER WORDS, THEY WOULD KILL
THE FILIBUSTER SO THE DEMOCRATS WOULD THEN BE POWERLESS.
WHEN
THE DEMOCRATS EVEN WHISPERED OF NOT FOLLOWING THE FILIBUSTER --
>>IN LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES.
>>THEY WERE LIKE, HOW DARE YOU?
THE BELOVED SENATE TRADITIONS.
NOW THEY ARE IN CHARGE THEY ARE LIKE, SENATE TRADITIONS?
WHO
CARES, IDIOT DEMOCRATS.
AND THEY CAN AFFORD TO LOSE TWO
REPUBLICAN SENATORS AND STILL PASS IT BECAUSE THEY HAVE 52.
AND IF THEY HOLD THE CONSERVATIVES, WHICH ARE LARGER
THAN THE MODERATES, MAYBE THEY COULD SQUEEZE IT IN.
BUT EVEN
SO, VERY HARD BECAUSE THERE ARE ACTUALLY A GOOD NUMBER OF
REPUBLICANS -- THEY ARE NOT REALLY MODERATES, THEY ARE ALL
RIGHT-WINGERS -- BUT REPUBLICANS WHO ARE BASICALLY SAYING, I'VE
GOT TOO MANY SENIOR CITIZENS IN MY STATE.
YOU ARE TELLING ME
THIS WILL BE A LITTLE BIT CHEAPER FOR 21-YEAR-OLDS,
BUT SOME OF THE 64-YEAR-OLDS WILL PAY 750% MORE.
>>21-YEAR-OLD DON'T VOTE.
74-YEAR-OLDS VOTE.
>>THEY
WOULD ALWAYS LOSE SUSAN COLLINS OF MAINE, SHE WOULD NEVER GO FOR
THIS RECORDING AND STUFF, BUT THERE ARE A BUNCH OF GUYS IN THE
MIDDLE WHO ARE LIKE, DO I REALLY WANT TO LOSE THE NEXT ELECTION?
>>THERE
ARE SOME IN THE HOUSE AS WELL SPECIFICALLY SAYING THIS LEAVES
TOO MANY PEOPLE IN MY DISTRICT WITHOUT HEALTH INSURANCE,
AND IF THEY GO IN THE DIRECTION OF MAKING IT MORE CONSERVATIVE
AND MORE DRACONIAN, THAT ONLY BECOMES A MORE SALIENT ARGUMENT.
IT CAN'T NECESSARILY GET TO THE 21 OR 23 REPUBLICANS YOU
NEED IN THE HOUSE TO TAKE IT, BUT THE WORSE YOU MAKE IT FOR
SENIORS AND THE POOR, THAT COULD POTENTIALLY BALLOON THAT NUMBER.
>>WILL THERE BE ANY DEMOCRATS, A MCCASKILL OR A JOE MANCHIN WHO
WILL SAY THEY DON'T WANT A FILIBUSTER IN THE SENATE?
>>SO FAR THEY ARE HOLDING THE LINE IN EVERY DEMOCRATS AS THEY
ARE OPPOSED.
THAT DOESN'T MEAN THEY WILL STAY OPPOSED, THEY
COULD PROBABLY LOSE THREE REPUBLICANS PRETTY EASILY, MAYBE
MORE, I WOULD BE SHOCKED IF MANCHIN DIDN'T FLIP AT THE END
AND VOTE WITH TRUMP.
MANCHIN IS BASICALLY A REPUBLICAN AT THIS
POINT, HE WILL FLIP ON CRUCIAL VOTES AND GO, IT WAS BIPARTISAN.
MY DEMOCRATIC FRIEND JOE MANCHIN IN WEST VIRGINIA IS A COWARD AND
HE REALIZES WON HIS STATE BY A LARGE MARGIN SO HE WILL GO OVER
AND BE WITH DADDY, BUT BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR.
EVEN
IF THEY WON THAT -- AT THIS POINT IT IS TOO EARLY TO TELL,
DON'T WRITE ANYTHING IN STONE -- I DON'T THINK THEY COULD DO IT.
BECAUSE REMEMBER, THEY ARE BUNGLERS.
I THINK UNLESS SOMEONE
WHO REALLY KNOWS WHAT THEY'RE DOING TAKES CHARGE, CORRALS ALL
THESE IDIOTS, AND TELLS THEM TO SHUT UP AND LEADS IN A STRAIGHT
LINE, THREADS THAT NEEDLE, I DON'T KNOW THAT REPUBLICANS HAVE
A GUY LIKE THAT.
BUT EVEN IF THEY WIN, IT MIGHT BE A
BLOODBATH FOR THEM ELECTORALLY NEXT TIME AROUND.
WE'RE TALKING
ABOUT KENTUCKY, RAND PAUL IS PUSHING FOR THE MOST ACCORDION
CUTS, KENTUCKY USES OBAMACARE MORE THAN ANY OTHER STATE, ALL
OF A SUDDEN, OOPS.
>>KENTUCKY, WEST VIRGINIA, ARKANSAS, THOSE ARE THE STATES.
TENNESSEE.
>>THE PROBLEM IS IT WOULD ALSO BE A LITERAL BLOODBATH,
MANY PEOPLE WOULD DIE.
>>THAT'S WHY WE DON'T ROOT FOR THEIR FAILURES, BECAUSE THEIR
FAILURES AFFECT SO MANY MILLIONS OF AMERICANS AND WE DON'T WANT
THAT TO HAPPEN.
WE WANT THEM TO BASICALLY LOSE ON THE POLICY SO
THAT YOU GUYS DON'T HAVE TO DEAL WITH THE ACTUAL REAL-LIFE
CONSEQUENCES.
SO MY FINAL PROPOSAL IS, THE FIRST ONE WAS
CALLED -- CALL IT RYAN CARE, THERE GOES PAUL RYAN AND HIS
CREW.
CAN YOU CALL THE SENATE ONE CRUZ CARE?
HE IS THE GUY
SAYING WE DON'T HAVE TO FOLLOW THE RULES, LET'S JUST GET 50
VOTES.
LET'S CALL THAT CRUZ CARE, KILL THAT ONE IN HIS
CAREER, AND THE COMBINED THING WILL BECOME TRUMP CARE.
>>WIPE HIM OUT.
>>AND FINALLY, PLAN C THAT TRUMP HAS BEEN HINTING AT, IS WHY
DON'T WE JUST LEAVE OBAMACARE AND LET IT FALL OF ITS OWN
ACCORD?
OKAY, DEAL.
HE HAS DRUNK HIS OWN KOOL-AID, OR STEVE
BANNON'S KOOL-AID, HE THINKS OBAMACARE WILL EXPLODE AT ANY
POINT, WHEN IT IS ACTUALLY A FINE-TUNED PIECE OF LEGISLATION.
IT IS NOT ANYWHERE NEAR PERFECT BUT IT'S NOT ABOUT TO COLLAPSE,
THERE IS NO SUCH THING, THAT IS MADE UP.
PREMIUMS ARE TOO HIGH
BECAUSE THEY NEVER PUT IN A PUBLIC OPTION OR WOUND UP
CHECKING THE HEALTH INSURANCE COMPANIES, IT HAS PROBLEMS BUT
IT IS NOT GOING TO COLLAPSE.
THAT IS NOT HOW IT WORKS.
IF
THEY THINK IT'S OKAY, WE WILL SHOW THOSE DEMOCRATS, LEAVE
OBAMACARE AS IT IS --
