Indisputable Fact: Republicans Control Congress
-
It's really sad. The entire Trump administration knows how stupid their supporters are and they are completely taking advantage of that. They have gone around on TV for the past week blaming everything on the obstructionist Democrats when in reality they control everything and they still can't get a bill passed! The Democrats had this same two year window in 2009 and they got a ton accomplished.
The fact that they can't get ObamaCare repealed proves just how useless and inept these people are. They have had SEVEN YEARS. When was the last time something at your job took 7 years to complete? You would be fired…...

Royalcrown is correct up to a point. Major legislation would require 60 votes in the Senate, but the Republicans have not gotten that far yet.

They do have the "nuclear option".

Democraps had 8 years to get Osamacare right.. and they failed. They are offering zero input on how to fix it now. If it was up to the moonbats, the best thing to happen would be for millions to lose their insurance, and BLAME the republicans.

(1) No one has yet explained why Republicans have called Democrats "obstructionists" when Democrats do not have any majorities or significant numbers to be obstructionists. One person explained that for major legislation, 60 votes are still needed. Fine. What about for other things?
(2) If Republicans truly believed there was no Russia collusion or that Russians didn't make attempts to mess with our democracy at all, why did they open investigations in the House and Senate? Republicans control the committees and subcommittees in Congress; therefore, they have the power to ignore anything and everything Democrats say. Why were investigations started by them and why are people on here blaming Democrats being "upset" with #45's win as the reason for the investigations? Democrats did not open those investigations because they do not have the power to. Can anyone explain why you blame Democrats when it was the Republican leadership that began the investigations?

What don't you understand here- that Obamacare IS the culmination of their 8 years of hard work- and it was the best they could come up with. Is it perfect? Of course not! But the point here is that they aren't willing to toss it all away just because the Republicans have come up with something they CLAIM is better, but after analysis has proven time and again that it is WORSE than Obamacare.
The fact is- Trumpcare will leave millions uninsured if it's passed, which is why almighty Trump himself has admitted to it being "mean" and asked the Senate to come up with something more generous. We'll see where that goes.
As for the original question for this thread- they have shown just how inept they are by being unable to pass anything meaningful in all this time they control everything. and they need to blame "obstructionist" Democrats just to give their gullible base some reason not to turn on them.

brianboru that's really stupid. I just think so, no offense. Obamacare is the worst tax ever placed on people, especially young people. How do you like paying a 500$ tax for not having insurance at the end of the year? It's just dumb. For starters. I think your statement is totally misread, ill-informed, and quite frankly, profoundly stupid. I honestly think you need to inform yourself more about it before making such ignorant remarks. Sorry if that offends you, it's just what I believe.

Obamacare is a disaster that is worse than having no insurance.

All these moon bats talking about how Obamacare is "ok." Well I think we can do better than "ok." It started with a website that Obama paid his friends half a billion dollars or was it more like 15 billion? That didn't even work. Now the drug companies, doctors, and insurance companies are taking advantage of it saying that an IV costs $10,000 and other outrageous mismanagement frauds. Nobody can actually afford to use it. It sucks. It's been ruled by the SCOTUS to be a tax, not insurance. Call it what it is and quit acting like it's insurance. It's a tax. Why is it a tax? To make up for the losses insurance companies and hospitals lose from all the damn illegal immigrants demanding free health care. It's a socialist system and it isn't working, because socialist systems never work, from Nazi Germany, to Communist Russia and China, to Canada, to Venezuela. It doesn't work. It might for a minute, but sooner or later it all comes to an abrubt halt, as will the Obamacare tax. It is failing and it will die. That's a fact that nobody denies.
And as far as Republicans controlling Congress and not getting anything done? That's because you got a few bitches that need to be voted out who work against the people of this country who elected them: like John McCain and Lindsay Graham, who only praise Trump if he's bombing Erdogan.
