So basically the Republicans have been whittled down to changing community ratings and that's what they're passing? I don't get it. Can someone explain the deal?

Never mind.

As long as this remains, this isn't passing. Maybe the House, but not the Senate.

This is why Trump is an ineffective president. He doesn't understand that the tReagan Republican coalition is built on an unspoken transaction that guarantees that blue collar workers vote for the party as long as Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security isn't touched. This is why Congress won't do a thing.

The people around him don't grasp this because they've almost all to a man never seriously worked in politics before his presidential campaign. I exaggerate but barely.

Democrats don't have the same problem as Republicans in reforming entitlements. There's a belief in this country the GOP wants to end entitlements so that's why they get burned everytime. They need Democratic buy in. That's one reason welfare reform passed.

It's also the reason Trump's struggling to pass anything here.
