    Obama dude never existed now

    Trump will sign about 26 executive orders on his first day. Thus erasing Obama legacy.

    After claiming to be anti-establishment all election season, I can't wait for both you and Trump to support the exact same policies that banks, insurance companies and energy firms have been lobbying the GOP establishment for.

    Trash's policies are Repug establishment policies.

    The stupid, ignorant Trash voters will get no economic relief at all.

    They voted their empty bank accounts, the bleakness of their economic future (white working class whites have had a DECLINE in longevity due to drugs, alcohol, suicide). They will get NOTHING back.

    Repugs will cut welfare to 10Ms of Trash white voters on public assistance (most people on public assistance are white).

    Rightwingnuts "love" the huge increases in BigInsurance rates? Watch them "laugh" as 20M people on ACA coverage lose their insurance and health care completely. Pre-existing conditions? F U C K Y O U.

    Goodbye Obamacare. Necessary to get rid of such a wasteful plan.

    That's the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard. Anything other than straight repeal puts the voting congressman in line to get primaried.

    "Ryan has framed the new paper as a starting point — a broad outline that the committees with jurisdiction would have to hammer out next year, if there is a GOP president who would sign off on a congressional repeal of Obamacare. There is some overlap with the vague plan laid out by presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump on his campaign website.

    The 37-page plan pledges to

    reduce consumers’ average health care premiums by double digits

    and bend the health care cost curve.

    But it does not lay out detailed answers about what it means to people who get coverage now.

    “The hard part for Republicans is going to be the millions of people who did not have coverage before who now have coverage — how are you going to explain it to them?” said Bill Hoagland, a former senior Republican Senate policy staffer who is now at the Bipartisan Policy Center. “I think that’s going to be a difficult row to hoe.”"

    reducing customers premiums means reducing BigInsurance's revenue.

    AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN (and Ryan ing knows it)

    Let's see how long after 20 Jan 17 it takes for the Repugs House to vote to repeal ACA for the 62nd+ time.

    My guess is they will repeal it, Trash will sign it, but nothing will happen for many months, if not years.

    Trash's supporters will, without doubt, pay more for less coverage, higher deductibles.

    Pre-existing conditions? F U C K Y O U

    They won't be able to afford it, so will "go to the ER" when they are in crisis, paid for by everbody else. Before their health gets to the crisis stage, they will not seek care they can't afford.

    Repeal of the health care law would be enormously difficult, even if Trump is elected.

    Putting aside the political battle, there are practical legislative roadblocks, too.

    There is no realistic scenario in which the GOP would have 60 votes in the Senate to approve legislation — a de facto firewall to prevent repeal of the health law in the immediate future.

    My guess is the Repugs will kill the non-Cons utional 60-vote rule now that they are in power in all 3 branches.

    They don't need to do that. Just put the ACA repeal in a budget that only needs 50 votes plus the VP's like they did with the Bush tax cuts.

    Repugs' 2001 tax cuts for the wealthy were rammed through with Senate reconciliation.
