Trump Plays Hardball on RyanCare
Ever petulant Donaldo Trump has grabbed recalcitrant Congressional Republicans by the pussy. Either pass the massive tax cut for the rich wrapped in the cadaver of a healthcare bill or he'll leave Obamacare, what literate Americans know as the Affordable Care Act, in place.
The Cheeto Benito is going to town on intransigent Republicans. He first tried to steal their lunch money, threatening to come after holdouts when they next sought re-election. That didn't work so now he's telling them it's his way or the highway.
An interesting situation. If Trump can get Congressional Republicans to knuckle under on a widely unpopular bill such as Paul Ryan's healthcare nightmare, he'll know what it takes to roll them over when and as he chooses.

Democratic presidents need a few rogue Democrats to thwart their progressive legislation when they attain super-majorities. By the time mid-terms roll around, voters realize they were hosed and deprive them of the super-majority. Then they are free to carry out the establishment agenda working with Republican neocons without progressives breaking their chops.
ReplyDeleteToo bad Hillary didn't win. There was no way she would've won a super-majority. So she could've gone to step b) right away. (If it's not establishment, it's fascist or communist. When politicians take bribes they are centrists. Not taking bribes is radical extremism!)
