No way will a repeal only option pass the Senate, I don't see Heller, Collins, McCain, Murkowski or Portman voting for it.

It's hilarious how the Republicans have now utterly failed on the one main issue they ran on for 6 years.

What a bunch of cucks.

No one was debating, Mike Enzi was essentially filibustering. Almost no Democrats got to speak at the end.

Yeah, Enzi kept saying NO I WILL NOT ANSWER QUESTIONS, IT'S MY TUUUUURRRRN. Then rambled about infant mortality rates

This isn't the vote IIRC, it comes after this right?

I'm really trying to fight off the feeling of hope given that it would be dependent on McCain, but it's creeping in.

Never trust GOP lawmakers to make the right choice.

What's Rand Paul's rationale for opposing Graham-Cassidy?

The block grants, and the fact it doesn't go far enough to repeal O-care.
