This GOP senator says reviving Obamacare subsidies would be 'putting America first'

[In It to Win It]

If the Senate is going to strike a deal to revive a signature Democratic policy, it will be in part because of an unlikely broker: a freshman Republican from the party’s MAGA wing.

Sen. Bernie Moreno of Ohio is, on paper, an odd fit in the core group of about a dozen senators in talks to extend Obamacare credits that lapsed Jan. 1. Most are well-known bipartisan dealmakers, such as Republican Susan Collins and Democrat Jeanne Shaheen.

Moreno, on the other hand, joined the Senate a year ago as a President Donald Trump-anointed loyalist who had just defeated longtime Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown with hard-line attacks focused mainly on immigration. But he has a key asset — a close relationship with Trump, who will need to bless or at least tacitly accept any agreement to smooth its passage through Congress.

Asked in an interview about his decision to take a leading role in the politically fraught health care negotiations, Moreno deployed one of Trump’s best-known slogans.

No, nothing at all…

4. Sherrod will actually be running against Husted this year,...

not Moreno.

3. This needs to pass with veto proof votes

That;s the only way it should be passed.
