Trump Meddling Leaves Ryan's Clout in Doubt After Health Fiasco

7. Two things happened since the bill was introduced

First CBO score. 24 million lose insurance and prices don't go down. They tried to discredit the CBO before it came out but no one was buying that and moderate Republicans started falling off. Incidentally, sucks for my rep, Leonard Lance, who voted for it in Energy and Commerce committee and was making the rounds on cable news shows defending the bill and the process. He was left with his pants down and you-know-what flapping in the breeze.

Second the Kansas special election. 20 percentage point swing in one of the reddest districts even after in-person campaigning by Ted Cruz and robocalls from Trump and Pence. If this environment continues, there will be a blood bath for Republicans in the midterms.
