I wonder if he'll claim it's universal coverage without any cuts to Medicaid like he did on the campaign trail.

Republicans want to break Obamacare, then spend billions of dollars to clean up the mess
“It is impossible to overcome that basic arithmetic reality.”
Republicans are prepared to spend hundreds of billions of dollars to mitigate problems their own bill is creating.
The Senate health bill scales back financial assistance for people buying private coverage. It allows plans that do not comply with the law’s insurance regulations back on the market.
And it ends generous federal funding for Obamacare’s Medicaid expansion, which has covered millions of the poorest Americans.
this has left Senate Republicans in the somewhat awkward position of amending a bill to fix the problems that same bill creates.
Republicans have already added $182 billion in stabilization funding to the plan and are reportedly ready to add $200 billion to partially offset the Medicaid expansion cuts.
Yet according to experts, it’s not nearly enough. The end result is still a cut in benefits for Americans affected by the changes, and millions more people becoming uninsured.

This how Repugs govern because they hate govt, and hate the citizens of the lower 4 quintiles.
yes and there are a bunch of pulls that showed different results for obamacare and aca
Frank Luntz made labels really matter back in the 90s. Hence the death tax, job creators, etc. It sounds stupid and it is that a label matters so much for how voters react, but oh well, Americans are stupid then.
takers, moochers, death panels, socialism, welfare queens, young bucks
God loves stupid, ignorant Americans, is why He made several 10Ms of them, Hand-made out of Biblical drilling mud, and Ditsy Devos plans to make them "more stupider", for profit.

"racists, xenophobes, phobes, misogynists, bigots"
statements of facts accepted by those who to which they apply, are not labels fabricated to , obfuscate, mislead political perceptions

the senate is voting in less than 24 hours on a bill they havent seen.
The Democrats aren't giving us one vote on the bill we created in secret without any of their input or even allowing them to see it
![]()
The Democrats are obstructionists after the Republicans obstructed everything for eight years
![]()
what do you mean?
Hard to argue with this. Ye reap what ye sow.
It was wrong for the republicans and it is wrong for the democrats
GET THE JOB done
The democrats right now are the ones messing up. They should repeal it and get 12 people
3 conservative republicans 3 modern and 3 liberal democrats 3 modem democrats and get a bill written
they should lock them up without food for however long required
why it is funny peoples lives are effected by this
the current bill that is law is failing
the republicans were right fighting it but they should have helped write the bill
It's funny seeing the GOP whine after 8 years of complete obstruction, including stealing Obama's last supreme court appointment.

Damn, bum, you're repeatedly kicking us in the old bread basket.
Trump administration scraps Obamacare signup assistance in 18 cities
- The Trump administration has ended Affordable Care Act contracts that brought assistance to 18 cities.
- People will have 45 days to shop for 2018 coverage, half the time of previous years.
President Donald Trump's administration has ended Affordable Care Act contracts that brought assistance into libraries, businesses and urban neighborhoods in 18 cities, meaning shoppers on the insurance exchanges will have fewer places to turn for help signing up for coverage.
Community groups say the move, announced to them by contractors last week, will make it even more difficult to enroll the uninsured and help people already covered re-enroll or shop for a new policy. That's already a concern because of consumer confusion stemming from the political wrangling in Washington and a shorter enrollment period.
another attempt to undermine the health law's marketplaces by a president who has suggested he should let "Obamacare" fail.
The administration has already threatened to withhold payments to insurers to help people afford care, which would prompt insurers to sharply increase prices.
"It's not letting the law fail, it's making the law fail."
Two companies — McLean, Virginia-based Cognosante and Falls Church, Virginia-based CSRA — will no longer help with the sign-ups following a decision by Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services officials not to renew a final option year of the vendors' contracts.

I have no doubt that the corrupt Tom Price is studying, or even has, lots of other ways to screw up Obamacare without needing to repeal it.
