Will Trump save ObamaCare, I think he will. He may not know what he is doing but

knows when it's time to fold.

IMO, the senate will have the vote next Thursday and pass it to the house/senate conference which will adjust the bill a bit but pass it and send it to the POTUS for signing but.....

by then his power base will understand they are getting screwed and the governors will be on his back.

He also knows when a deal is not worth the trouble and a chance to turn it in to a win. He'll veto the bill.

That's my opinion and I'm sticking with it.

Trump will sign any piece of crap that gives him a win, then go on to rallies and lie to his adoring cultists.

Do you know anything about the health insurance argument because I have to tell you, working in the insurance business and being older and having ACA, you sound really uninformed.

You mean not having to do anything, as usual, because no bill will reach his desk, then yes.
