Tonight, TrumpScare lost a humiliating defeat in the Senate as two Republicans — Mike Lee (R-UT) and Jerry Moran (R-KS) joined Susan Collins (R-ME) and Rand Paul (R-KY) — in announcing they could not support a motion to proceed to a vote on the measure.
This loss is a stunning rebuke to Trump and Congressional Republicans on their signature issue for the past 8 years of repealing and replacing Obamacare which remains the law of the land.
Congratulations to all those progressive forces for fighting Trumpism and a special tip of the hat to President Obama for securing healthcare as a sacred birthright of every American.
RESIST !

now the fight for single payer begins!
The fight for a Democratic Party behind single payer begins first.
It will be back, trying to eat our brains.
My wife asked me, “If there are enough Republicans to pass any bill, how come they can’t pass a bill?”. I replied, “There are two types of Republicans today.”
She asked, “What’s the difference between the two?”
I replied, “One group of Republicans wants poor American citizens to suffer and die when they get sick or injured and the other group is up for re-election in 2018”
I don’t trust them. Let’s keep our eyes open. And, by the way, we honor you President Obama and Nancy Pelosi. ThNk you for your brilliant foresight.
