Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

    If and when repeal and replace fails today, GOP will have an accelerating interest in making Trump the scapegoat for their failures.https://twitter.com/ChadPergram/status/844873577245659136 …

    Sr Hse GOP source punting to administration if they can get a deal on health care bill. In other words; this is in Trump's hands now

        They're basically playing hot potato with a lit stick of dynamite. Smart thing would have been not to light it

        Sure but if the interest is there certain other things may follow.

        GOP has been doubling-down on crazy stuff for quite some time and it hasn't hurt them, yet. I think this will pass today.

        a week ago I assumed cutting EHBs would lose as many House votes as it gained. Today I'm concerned that was willful Pollyanna 😳

        Seems like normal House activity with fence-sitters holding out for sweeter deal. I suspect they'll vote yes in the end . . .

        While Trump will have an equal and opposite interest in doing the same to Ryan.
