Walking in lockstep. That's the Republicans problem, they have a little bit of conscious still, and think for themselves. Democrats lay an egg and let others deal with the consequence.
What a bunch of bullshit, again. Snap out of it Mags.
I'm not a Democrat nor a Republican. But, I know Democrats read the original healthcare act passed during the Obama Administration.
And, because I'm not bias-brainwashed nor brain-dead, I know for a fact that the Republicans couldn't get enough votes from fellow Republicans to push through the original bill to pass Trump Care. It wasn't Democrats who stopped that piece of shit from moving forward, it was Republicans.
And, I know for a fact that Republicans sponsoring the current legislation are not being bi-partisan. They've been working behind closed doors and didn't even consult the whole Republican Senate before trying to sell the Graham-Cassidy repeal and replace rework.
However, maybe Republicans will have to reach across the aisle on healthcare soon... because after 8 years of promising to do it and two failures to put together an agreeable plan within their own party, they'll have no choice.
