Reach across the aisle Mr President

[task0778]

In the WSJ, Peggy Noonan's weekly opinion piece advocates for an attempt by Trump to invite the Democrats to write and support the new Health Care Insurance policy. If enough Dems buy in then the blame for failure rests partly with them, as does the credit if it works better than the ACA. If the Dems won't help then at least the GOP has reason to blame them for being obstructionists.

Right now the Repubs look like crap trying to put together a bill that probably won't get past the Senate anyway, and they're going to look like fools. Instead they should be focusing on the priorities that will get them re-elected in 2018; if they do them soon enough to make a difference they can probably keep their jobs but they'll get kicked out of office if they don't. I am referring to tax reform, infrastructure, anything that gets the economy moving. If Trump doesn't get those new jobs created then he's toast and so is the GOP.

It looks to me like right now Trump and the GOP are trying to fix HC the same way the Dems did under Obama - unilaterally without any buy-in from the other side. And the Dems paid a heavy price for that mistake too, the Repubs tied them to the ACA failures and as a result took back the House, then the Senate, and then the WH. I can see the reverse happening down the road if the Repub version of HCI fails (which I think it will) and they don't get the necessary things done to create jobs and boost the economy.

Reach Across the Aisle, Mr. President

I want President Trump to uproot 99% of both Parties.

Reach Across the Aisle, Mr. President

Reach across the isle Mr. President, just like Obama reached across the aisle to pass the ACA.

 

[Onyx]

The PPACA had like 450 provisions written by Republicans, which is how they got it passed.

A compromise with Democrats on the Republican healthcare bill would involve keeping the medicaid expansion and retaining funding for planned parenthood, which couldn't work unless they restored some of the taxes or mandates. Strategically I think the Democrats should just oppose the bill altogether though.

 

[Lakhota]

President Obama did reach across the isle on the ACA - but all Republicans said NO. Now, Democrats have offered to help fix Obamacare if Republicans stop trying to kill it.

Democrats should NOT go near TrumpCare!

Reach across the isle Mr. President, just like Obama reached across the aisle to pass the ACA.

Actually it would be wise to do so and not follow the same path as Pelosi, Reid and Obama.

You will disagree and call me a liberal for having a insane thought like that, but it is better to have both parties hooked to this Bill than just one.

Again you will disagree because I am some Liberal panty wearing limp wrist for thinking that making the same mistake over and over is just insane!

 

[AsianTrumpSupporter]

Just don't let Democrats know what's in the bill, because we have to pass it to find out what's in it.

Reach across the isle Mr. President, just like Obama reached across the aisle to pass the ACA.

That's just it, Obama didn't reach across the aisle and it cost him and the Dems big time. I have my doubts that whatever bill the GOP comes up with is going to be successful any more than the ACA was, and the Dems will beat them up on it. And if Trump can't point to more jobs and an improved economy then I think we're in for a switch back to the liberals in 2018 and 2020.

 

[whitehall]

I didn't see a single editorial suggesting the president Hussein "reach across the isle" when he said "republicans can come along for the ride but they have to sit in the back". The fact is that democrats know that Obamacare is in a free fall and President Trump has reached out for their input but democrats continue to play by the old 60's looser playbook and pretend that they are bystanders while Americans know better.

I think that Trump should reach across the aisle. But for a liberal to lecture Trump on what they themselves didn't do is hypocritical. Let's get the damn healthcare bill right this time. Not like when Obama bought off his own party to pass a POS legislation.

Nope, once again you are wrong. I don't say you are wrong because you are a liberal, you are wrong because you are a liberal.

I think they should reach across the aisle, not like what Obama did, to our demise.

Every Republican voted against it, moron.

Are you, an "anarchist," defending the biggest piece of statist crap ever to come down the pike?

Please stop calling yourself an anarchist. I can't take any more of the side splitting laughter.

 

[Onyx]

Are you, and anarchist, defending the biggest piece of statist crap ever to come down the pike?.

No, I oppose the PPACA and posted just yesterday that it is critically broken.

I'm sick of justifying myself to an authority worshipping statist though. You are pathetic, and have nothing better to do than lash out with logical fallacies and outright falsehoods.

 

[Desperado]

Screw the liberals. they lost, They had 8 years to run the government and they drove it into the ground.
The United States does not need and further input from these socialist idiots.

if mr drumpf didn't intend to be so divisive he wouldn't have jumped into bed with white supremacists.


Exploring The Nationalistic And Christian Right Influences On Trump

 

[Valerie]

The alt-right is a rebranding of white nationalists and others who embrace white identity politics and has been associated with racism, anti-Semitism, Islamophobia and misogyny. Steve Bannon is now president Trump's chief strategist and a member of the National Security Council's Principals Committee.

Provide evidence to support your comment about being a liberal!

I find it strange that those that voted for Trump are willing to call someone Liberal when you voted for one!

Sure he might say what you want to read and hear but he is a wasteful spending liberal and on social issues he is very liberal except on illegal immigration and Muslims.

I might be social liberal on abortion and gay marriage and believe religion has no place in government but I am fiscal Conservative that I do not support wasteful spending on pet projects like border walls or wars that have no purpose except wasting money.

So as you keep on claiming someone is liberal you should look in the mirror and ask yourself why you voted for a guy that has been a liberal all his life and if you attempt to claim he is not liberal then you are a liar...

Oh and learn the damn difference between libertarian and progressive liberals because Trump is as Conservative as I am Liberal and you do not want bipartisanship and I am willing to bet you will proclaim what Trump is endorsing is great for America and I am grateful the Senate has Rand Paul and Susan Collins to keep Trump in his place unlike what Pelosi and Reid refuse to do when Obama was President!

Now scury along and remember I am also a terrorist living anti-American to those like you!
