NBC reported that after Trump's strong arm meeting yesterday, he lost 10 more... I think he's pissing them off with his lies and they've heard too much from their constituents, saying this is a terrible bill... I agree that Ryan wouldn't bring it to a vote if it won't pass, but either way, a delay is a loss for Trump/Ryan & Co.
