        @maggieNYT Yea because demonstrating you dont have the knowledge, temperament to do your job is indicative of success.

        Not really a contrarian take, just mere right wing wish thinking.

        we are in agreement. I think Rs are better off in '18 given this outcome. Ryan and Trump both lost, though

        I don't get this argument that the Dems were obligated to vote for a position they opposed.

        The Dems have been asking for bipartisan repair of ACA since election. "Repair, don't replace."

        Dems were literally locked out of hidden room where bill was drafted. GOP owns Republicare mess.

        I heard Schumer and Pelosi offer to work with GOP on repair, not replace. 45 insisted on repeal.

        Ridiculous position. We punish people when they ATTEMPT crimes. Similarly we should punish the GOP for attempting this awful bill #Trumpcare

        GOP has been campaigning against ACA for 8 years. No ideas of own, as Republicare showed.
