The actual quote was 'If anything, this places more pressure on us to follow through."

CNN reporter said the only way to save their asses before 2018 is to pass "major legislation" (such as the tax cuts).

I really expected Ryan and his henchmen to invoke "the will of the people" after this debacle.

Our votes speak for themselves.... Republicans just don't give a shit or are too dumb to care.
Bottom line... they don't believe in good government. It's no wonder they suck at it.
