'Skinny Repeal' Fail Makes Mitch A Sad Turtle

THE SKINNY REPEAL WAS A BIG FAT FAILURE.
WHAT IS A
REPUBLICAN TO DO?
THERE ARE A LOT OF RESPONSES ON THE HEELS OF
THIS FAILURE, WE WILL TALK FIRST ABOUT MITCH MCCONNELL.
AND A
THEME WE'VE NOTICED IS THAT THEY ARE REALLY FOCUSED ON WHETHER
DEMOCRATS WILL CELEBRATE.
I REGRET THAT OUR EFFORTS WERE SIMPLY NOT ENOUGH THIS
TIME.
NOW I IMAGINE MANY OF OUR COLLEAGUES ON THE OTHER SIDE OF
CELEBRATING, PROBABLY PRETTY HAPPY ABOUT ALL THIS.
BUT THE
AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE HURTING, AND THEY NEED RELIEF.
OUR FRIENDS ON
THE OTHER SIDE DECIDED EARLY ON THAT THEY DIDN'T WANT TO ENGAGE
WITH US AND, IN A SERIOUS WAY, HELP THOSE SUFFERING UNDER
OBAMACARE.
I LOVE THIS LINE OF ATTACK, WHICH YOU WILL SEE MORE OF IN A
SECOND -- I GUESS OUR FRIENDS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE AISLE ARE
CELEBRATING THAT THEY WON.
YEAH, THAT'S HOW IT WORKS.
I GUESS
THEY ARE TAKING SELFIES -- I WILL TAKE A SELFIE.
I DON'T KNOW
WHY, BUT I'LL TAKE IT.
MCCONNELL WENT ON TO ASK, WHAT PLANS DO
THE DEMOCRATS HAVE?
THE PLAN THEY HAD WAS CALLED OBAMACARE
AND THEY JUST SAVED IT.
WHAT A BIZARRE TALKING POINT.
ONLY IN
WASHINGTON AND ON TV WOULD SUCH AN INSANE TALKING POINT BE
GIVEN ANY CREDENCE.
HOW PREPARED DO YOU THINK HE WAS TO GIVE THAT SPEECH, GIVEN
THAT HE WAS STANDING NEXT TO MCCAIN GOING LIKE, ALL RIGHT,
LET'S SEE.
REPUBLICANS HAVE BEEN THROWING AN EIGHT YEAR TEMPER TANTRUM
OVER THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT.
THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY WANT.
THEY'VE HAD 70 YEARS TO COME UP WITH ANYTHING THAT IS BETTER.
BUT GUESS WHAT -- THIS IS A HUGE HANDOUT TO THE HEALTHCARE
INDUSTRY, THIS WAS A ROMNEY PLAN.
CAN WE NOT REMEMBER?
IT'S
A WIN/WIN IF YOU ARE AN OLIGARCH, ESSENTIALLY.
AND A
WIN/WIN FOR PEOPLE WHO NEED HEALTHCARE, BUT IT FURTHER
ENTRENCHES THE PRIVATIZED SYSTEM, ETC.
-- IT WAS
ORIGINALLY A REPUBLICAN PLAN.
THEY HAVE NOTHING, AND WE KNOW
THIS.
NOT IT'S LIKE, THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE -- KNOW THEY
AREN'T, THEY AREN'T SUFFERING.
THEY'VE GOT MORE CARE.
AND OBAMACARE IS NOW POLLING ABOVE 50%, IT'S PRETTY POPULAR.
IT'S HARD TO GET ANY BILL THAT'S IN EFFECT THAT HAS DOWNSIDES
ABOVE 50%.
I THOUGHT OBAMACARE HAD THE SAME DOWNSIDES OF
FRANCESCA JUST MENTIONED, THERE ARE NO PRICE CONTROLS, IT LETS
PRIVATE INSURANCE CHARGE WHATEVER THEY WANT, AND
PROGRESSIVES WERE RIGHT ABOUT THAT.
THE ESTABLISHMENT
DEMOCRATS ASSURED US THERE WERE PLENTY OF PRICE CONTROLS, THERE
WEREN'T. BUT IT'S ABOVE 50% BECAUSE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE JUST
SAW THE ALTERNATIVE, AND THE REPUBLICAN PROPOSAL WAS POLLING
AT 17%.
DON'T QUOTE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, MITCH MCCONNELL.
THE
POLLING IS CLEAR, THEY HATED YOUR PLAN.
LET'S HEAR FROM TED CRUZ, WHO OFFERED HIS OWN SOLUTION.
IN THE NEXT 24 HOURS, AND THE NEXT WEEK, DEMOCRATS WILL CLAIM
TOTAL VICTORY FOR A COLLAPSING AND FAILING LAW THAT IS
OBAMACARE.
AND THE MEDIA WILL WRITE STORY AFTER STORY ABOUT
HOW OBAMACARE WILL REMAIN, EVEN THOUGH IT'S FAILING AND HURTING
MILLIONS OF AMERICANS.
BUT AFTER ALL OF THE CHEST EATING AND THE
PROUD VICTORY LAPS OF THE LEFT, I BELIEVE THIS CONGRESS WILL
COME BACK, AND IN TIME WILL HONOR OUR PROMISES.
SENATORS
WILL GO HOME TO THEIR STATES IN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS AND WILL FACE
THEIR CONSTITUENTS, THEY WILL HAVE HARD QUESTIONS OF PEOPLE
LOOKING AT THEM IN THE EYE AND SAYING WHY DID YOU LIKE TO ME?
AND EVEN THE SENATORS WHO VOTED YES WILL BE ASKED WHY DID YOU
LIKE TO ME?
BECAUSE VOTERS WILL SET YOU PROMISED TO DO THIS AND
YOU FAILED.
WHY WOULD THE VOTERS RISE UP IN THEIR FURY AND BE LIKE, WHY
DID YOU NOT PASS THE BILL WE ALL HATED?
83% ARE ON THE OTHER
SIDE, THEY HATED YOUR BILL.
WHY WOULD THEY BE LIKE, WHY DIDN'T
YOU PASS THAT BILL?
YOU DIDN'T TAKE MY HEALTHCARE AWAY, HOW
COULD YOU DO THAT?
TED CRUZ, JUST BECOME A PREACHER LIKE YOUR DAD.
YOUR
CONSTITUENCY HATES YOU.
THEY WERE PROTESTING YOU TOO, YOUR
CONSTITUENTS DON'T WANT YOU TO REPEAL IT EITHER.
GIVE IT UP.
AND CAN WE HAVE A MOMENT FOR THE CRUZ AMENDMENT?
ESSENTIALLY
HE SAID IS IT COOL IF WE HAVE INSURANCE WHERE IF THERE IS ONE
PLAN THAT'S GOOD, WE CAN SELL A BUNCH OF OTHER HORRIBLE PLANS?
THAT'S LIKE A CAR DEALER SAYING WE HAVE ONE GOOD CAR, THE STUFF
YOU CAN AFFORD, WE WILL SELL YOU TWO TIRES AND A CRANKSHAFT OR
SOMETHING -- AND DRIVESHAFT WAS THE NAME OF THE BAND I THINK AND
LOST, THAT'S NOT GOING TO HELP ME WHEN I NEED A CAR.
IN THE BEGINNING HE DID THE SAME THING AS MCCONNELL, I GUESS
THE DEMOCRATS WILL CELEBRATE THAT THEY WON -- YES, THEY WILL!
AND CHUCK SCHUMER IS LIKE WE AREN'T CELEBRATING TODAY -- WHY
DO YOU SAY THAT?
IF I WAS A DEMOCRATIC LEADER I WOULD BE
LIKE, YES WE ARE CELEBRATING.
WE DEFEATED A TERRIBLE BILL, I WILL
THROW A PARTY WITH A PI—ATA THAT LOOKS LIKE MCCONNELL.
I WISH SCHUMER WOULD WEAR A PARTY HAT AND BE LIKE, I'M
NOT CELEBRATING.
THAT WOULD BE AWESOME.
HE'S LIKE, WE ARE NOT CELEBRATING --
ELIZABETH WARREN IS IN THE BACKGROUND WITH A PARTY FAVOR.
I FEEL LIKE REPUBLICANS ARE LIGHT, SOMEONE IS HAVING A PARTY
WITHOUT US.
BECAUSE YOU GUYS FAILED.
I FEEL LIKE REPUBLICAN PARTIES ARE SECRETLY THE CRAZIEST,
WEIRDEST, KINKIEST --
LIKE, YOU ARE IN CLOAKS BUT ALSO NAKED -- KIND OF PARTY.
ONE MORE FROM FOX NEWS, THE SAME THEME BUT ALSO A FUNNY
POINT AT THE END BY KILMEADE AS USUAL.
THESE YOUNG PEOPLE ARE OUT THERE CELEBRATING,
CONGRATULATIONS.
YOU NOW WILL PAY A FINE OR YOU HAVE TO HAVE
INSURANCE.
CONGRATULATIONS, THE HEALTHY PEOPLE ARE PAYING FOR
THE SICK PEOPLE.
YES, THAT'S HOW INSURANCE WORKS.
BUT THEY LITERALLY DON'T
UNDERSTAND ANYTHING, ESPECIALLY INSURANCE.
THEY ARE LIKE, YOU
ARE CELEBRATING BECAUSE YOU WON, AND I GUESS YOU WANT HEALTHY
PEOPLE TO PAY IN WHEN THEY ARE NOT YET SICK.
THAT'S HOW IT
WORKS.
WE HAVE A MANDATE FOR CAR INSURANCE, IF YOU WANT TO DRIVE
A CAR YOU MUST GET CAR INSURANCE.
IT'S NOT JUST A FINE,
YOU CAN GET PULLED OVER AND ARRESTED.
THE REASON WE HAVE
THAT -- KILMEADE WOULD BE LIKE, I GUESS THE PEOPLE AREN'T IN
ACCIDENTS WILL BE PAYING FOR EVERYONE ELSE
