The devoted conservatives elect congressmen as equally unreasonable as they are. This is well known.
But, moderate Republican congressmen are somewhat different, they must answer to a much less-crazed constituency. Yes, these congressmen still must serve the interests of the 0.1%, but the people in the districts they represent expect to be thrown a bone occasionally.
In this instance, that bone is leaving Obamacare in place and Medicaid untouched.
Unlike the conservative extremists who voted for the Big Orange idiot, and only vote for the name followed by (R), in 2018, moderate voters will definitely remember if their congressmen were among the a$$holes who took their health insurance from them.
This knowledge is weighing heavily on the minds of an ever-growing number of moderate senators, and their a$$es are beginning to pucker. They know passing the Senate’s healthcare bill, which is really a massive tax cut for the 0.1%, will not sit well back home. Not at all.
No, these moderate Republican congressmen (and women, although the GOP women in congress are typically no more than window dressing) cannot ignore the folks back home.
Politicians whose loyalties are given exclusively to the 0.1%, as do the likes of Ryan, McConnell, etc., these crooks know full well their own constituencies are sheep willing to be led to slaughter. (Or in this case, die slow horrible deaths due to their congressmen stealing their health insurance.)
CBO: Senate health bill leads to 22 million fewer insured Americans by 2026
