Doctors, hospitals and insurers oppose Republican health plan

The House of Representatives was taken back out of the hands of the democratic party, back in 2010 due to the 'backlash,' against Obamacare GOP took back the House; in 2012 the GOP took back the Senate. Leading up the this election, just about every GOP candidate ran on a policy of "repealing" Obamacare, and the American people bought into it.

Yet, 3 years later, the GOP is barely doing anything to change Obamacare which republicans pledged to 'repeal.' Back in 2014 when the GOP took back the House, Boehner was 'Speaker of the house.' He wound up giving up his seat due to pressure from the public. Enter, current Speaker, Paul Ryan (whom Boehner personally 'picked' to replace him). So, is it any wonder why the GOP is 'sitting' on doing anything about "repeal and replace?"

The American people need look no further than Paul Ryan (elitist, globalist, RHINO, neo-con).

I'll never forget hearing an interview about Obamacare. I don't recall where it was from, but wish I'd have saved that interview. Anyway, in the interview, I heard this person saying, once the GOP had 'control' of the presidency, and were in a position to 'change' Obamacare, they wouldn't. Why? Because they'd realize just how much 'power' it gave them. It was a powerful interview, and I'll never forget seeing this. Most who read what I post here know I always "back up" what I say, in this case, I didn't keep that information, wish I did. But, it doesn't matter, you're seeing 'resistance' on the part of the GOP 'elite' to make any significant changes.

So, now we have some version called 'Obamacare lite.' Well, this is not what Trump campaigned on. He promised- "repeal and replace," and unless that is what we get (at least those who voted for him), anything less just won't cut it. Paul Ryan is holding up and stalling the Trump administration from getting Obamacare "repealed and replaced."

Pressure needs to be brought to bear upon all the republican representatives who came into office back in 2014, to either get with Trump, stand behind him, or get out of the way. You can bet those representatives will be replaced in the next election cycle. The danger is having a democratic takeover of the House. Now is the time like never before. You've got both houses, the presidency, what is the problem? There shouldn't be. They don't even need 'democrats,' being they're basically irrelevant. Why Trump still doesn't even have his entire 'cabinet' in place is beyond unheard of. Why doesn't the GOP just use the 'nuclear option,' which is currently in place, thanks to former Senate majority leader, Harry Reid. So it was good for them to use? but not good for republicans?

According to this article, "doctors, hospitals and insurers oppose Republican health plan."
