Some of Hollywood’s biggest stars took to social media to celebrate and express their gratitude for the Republican senators who voted Friday morning against the so-called “skinny repeal” of Obamacare.

“Great respect to @ JohnMccain who put country over party,” comedian and actor Billy Crystal tweeted, thanking Senator McCain for putting “country over party” and voting against repeal.

“Senator John McCain is a man of his word and a true hero. Compassion and heart wins the day,” liberal actor-director Rob Reiner tweeted.

The Health Care Freedom Act failed to pass on a 49-51 vote, thanks to “no” votes from Republican Senators John McCain (R-AZ), Susan Collins (R-ME), and Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) — McCain and Murkowski having saved Obamacare from repeal after promising voters on the campaign trail that they would repeal the law.

“#Heroes who care and didn’t carelessly play with Americans’ health – Thank you Lisamurkowski SenatorCollins@ SenJohnMcCain,” actress Elizabeth Banks tweeted Friday.

President Trump chimed in, writing, “Three Republicans and 48 Democrats let the American people down. As I said from the beginning, let Obamacare implode, then deal. Watch!”

The Senate floor should be required to play the people's court theme song over the speakers. It would really up the production value.

Kind of ironic. Bill Kristol tells McCain what to do, and Billy Crystal praises him for it...good doggy.

Country over party? More like corporation over party.

[NorthCarolinaLiberty]

No, they put dirtbags over me, selfishly using government to take my money.

That praise was nothing compared to the past couple of days.

That praise was nothing compared to the past couple of days.

I'd be embarrassed at such inconsistency.

The miserable old mummy never even voted for it the first time around.

Like Longshanks on his deathbed, he was petty, small, peevish and petulant even unto the end.

He did not vote repeal down because of any deeply held conviction, or epiphany in thought...he did it simply as a "fuck you" to Trump.

And in the process condemned millions of Americans to bankruptcy, slavery to the state and death at the hands of an inefficient and inept medical establishment that, he, McCain as lifelong servant of the Empire did not have to take part in and was exempted from.

A brain cancer diagnosis, for any of us Mundanes, is a short term death sentence, yet Kennedy and McCain lived for years with it, Biden is still living with, by virtue of the very best of health care, paid for by our ever fucking tax dollars, health care that would far beyond the financial means of any of us.

Rot in hell you bastards.
