“I don’t think that there will be any curtailing of Donald Trump as president,” he said. "He controls the media, he controls the sentiment [and] he controls everybody. He’s the one who will resort to executive orders more so than [President] Obama ever used them." - Ron Paul
That is a spin that I don't see it that way at all
This is video of just the last 35 secs. of House GOP stakeout last night . . .
https://www.c-span.org/video/?425914...alth-care-bill
Priebus and Bannon left about halfway through the GOP House Member meeting. That is when CSPAN first reported
that WH wants a Friday vote.
One of the two congressman that comes out (before Ryan excerpt above) described it as "intense" . . .
he implied like Rand has said that Freedom Caucus seemed to be a bloc of some degree. He did as he always has and "waited till the end of legislation to decide, he seemed probable yes depending what the new House revision is this morning.
WH is gone from this now.
In the end it was the GOP members agreed they would vote with 4 GOP voted with all Democrats to not even vote yet.
(It was funny after that when the Congressman Andrea Mitchell was interviewing left, they all asked who was that ? LOL She didn't know.
Whatever Mike Lee / Rand Paul legislation that comes out of both houses of Congress (as Ryancare up/down is DOA in Senate),
or other GOP repeal of Obamacare - any is NOT gonna be vetoed but signed in to law. Besides, Trump has a wall to build.

Thanks, and thanks CSPAN. https://www.c-span.org/video/?425937...fternoon&live=
Sounds like Californian is arguing about what the "Congressman from Kentucky" (John Yarmuth- D) said
https://www.c-span.org/video/?425937...fternoon&live=
Recent debate seems like sob stories from both sides of the aisle
If GOP bill doesn't pass . . . death, abortions
If GOP bill passes . . . "44,000 more deaths in your own district"
I am convinced already - they're right.
This Dem guy must have statistics for every district. Next . . .
If GOP bill doesn't pass . . . death, abortions
If GOP bill passes . . . "50,000 more deaths in your own district"

http://www.breitbart.com/big-governm...-unacceptable/House Appropriations Chair Rodney Frelinghuysen Rebukes Speaker Paul Ryan: Obamacare 2.0 Is ‘Currently Unacceptable’
“Seven years after enactment of Obamacare, I wanted to support legislation that made positive changes to rescue healthcare in America,” Frelinhguysen, who has been lauded as the Garden State’s most powerful congressman, wrote in a Facebook post.
Unfortunately, the legislation before the House today is currently unacceptable as it would place significant new costs and barriers to care on my constituents in New Jersey. In addition to the loss of Medicaid coverage for so many people in my Medicaid-dependent state, the denial of essential health benefits in the individual market raise serious coverage and cost issues. I remain hopeful that the American Health Care Act will be further modified. We need to get this right for all Americans.
The House Speaker almost never loses the Appropriations Chairman on major pieces of legislation. The fact Frelinghuysen is against the bill calls into question Ryan’s ability to lead the conference–including his own committee chairs–in the future on other pieces of legislation. It shows just how unpopular this legislation really is GOP-wide, and further demonstrates Ryan’s inability to bring together the different factions of the House Republican conference.
Partisan politics, misleading or emotional bill titles, and 4D chess theories are manifestations of the same lie—that the text of the Constitution, the text of legislation, and plain facts do not matter; what matters is what you want to believe. From this comes hypocrisy. And where hypocrisy thrives, virtue recedes. Without virtue, liberty dies. - Justin Amash, March 2018

WASHINGTON — House Speaker Paul D. Ryan, facing a revolt among conservative and moderate Republicans, rushed to the White House Friday afternoon to inform President Trump he did not have the votes to pass legislation to repeal the Affordable Care Act and to decide whether to pull the bill from consideration.
The president and the speaker faced the humiliating prospect of a major defeat on legislation promised for seven years, since the landmark health legislation was signed into law. President Trump had demanded a vote regardless, which has been scheduled for Friday afternoon. But House leaders were leaning against such a public loss.
The House opened debate Friday on what would have been one of the most consequential pieces of legislation in years, a bill that would have rolled back a major, established social welfare program, a feat that is almost unheard of.

This just in from CNN discussion panel:
Wolf: "Look, the Ryan plan is a shoe-in. Polls show 98% approval in the House and Senate."
Anderson: "You got that right, Wolf. Look, the only question now is how big a landslide is it going to be."
Chris: "Look, the Trump administration has been holed up in the White House all day today. Planning how to explain this humiliation, no doubt."
Erin: "Look, this embarrassment for Trump is already invoking talk about impeachment."
Brett: "From anonymous sources, of course."
Erin: "Look, of course they are."
Wolf: "Quit telling me to look, Erin."
Erin: "You quit telling ME to look, asswipe."

http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories...03-24-05-52-03Outlook looking bleak for GOP on 'Obamacare' repeal bill
WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Republicans' capstone health care overhaul seemed in dire trouble Friday as Speaker Paul Ryan weighed strategy at the White House with President Donald Trump. GOP lawmakers and aides said they lacked the votes to succeed in the House, just hours before a do-or-die showdown demanded by Trump.
GOP leaders pushed toward a climactic House roll call, but their promise to stage the vote increasingly looked like a losing gamble for the new president and his GOP allies in Congress.
Vice President Mike Pence was meeting near the Capitol with the House Freedom Caucus. That group's hard-right members, along with a growing band of party moderates, have been driving GOP opposition and threatening to crash one of Trump's and Ryan's top priorities.
"I think the president has given it his all," White House spokesman Sean Spicer told reporters in what sounded like a concession that the measure's fate was bleak. He added, "The speaker has done everything he can. You can't force people to vote."
“I don’t think that there will be any curtailing of Donald Trump as president,” he said. "He controls the media, he controls the sentiment [and] he controls everybody. He’s the one who will resort to executive orders more so than [President] Obama ever used them." - Ron Paul
