over and over.

I hear a few GOP senators have had enough and are finally willing to fix Obamacare.

But if Trump doesnt get his name on it, he will oppose.

who had already announced their no votes. He was hearing from other Senators who did not want to go down in another stinging defeat, and who were saying they would also be voting no, if for no other reason to be able to tell their constituents they were against a bill 80% of the country hated.

So fix it and then call it the Obama/Trump Care.

And then Mr. Conyers can reintroduce single payer and we can insist.
