>>The fault is not Trump's.<< Yes it is. Trump promised a 'wonderful' plan that would 'cover all Americans'. It would be a 'tremendous' plan, that he had ready to go on 'day 1'. OF COURSE he had 'no Democrats'. The Democrats had no Republicans for the ACA, despite Obama picking a Republican plan cooked up by the Heritage Foundation and adopted by Mitt Romney in MA, and Obama personally lobbying them extensively. Obviously, Trump didn't even READ the (R) plan, or he would have KNOWN it sucked. He didn't even have an aide read it! He was a clueless idiot endorsing taking health care from the needy to pay for massive tax cuts for the very wealthy. Not at all what he promised. Trump's a total rookie at government. All the (R)'s knew how to do is repeal Obamacare. That's what they practiced 50 friggin' times with Obama. They didn't know they needed to REPLACE it until Trump made it an issue. But they still didn't come up with a passable plan. Republicans don't know how to govern, and they've got a president that doesn't know how to govern.

Drain the swamp. Expect the swamp to resist. Trump doesn't have the press, only the people. The people need to rise up and make their voices loud.

They can't learn to govern. It takes years. They are supposed to know that when they take the job. Dems do know how to govern. We just had eight years of peace and responsible administration. Compare Obama to Trump. The late shows did not make fun of Obama night after night. We elected the village idiot and he appointed his idiot friends. Of course they don't know what to do. <<The GOP Congress now needs to learn to govern instead of just engaging in obstruction.

The only common ground between Trump and Republicans is their animosity toward the poor and minority population of this country. It's fortunate these ass-clowns can't agree on who will be in charge of prioritizing the programs to screw them over even more, and don't have anyone capable of writing the laws to do it. The poor and minority population that supported them are not stupid, and are learning more every day about what a mistake they made voting them in.
