GOP Lawmaker: Previous ObamaCare Repeal Votes Were a Fraud
Yup, this is pretty clear.
I can’t get over this quote from @RepJoeBarton after the #AHCA failed. pic.twitter.com/TuUyAEyAbU

If the quote from Rep. Joe Barton isn’t showing up properly in your browser, I’ll repeat it. It deserves to be repeated anyway.
Reporters asked why, after Republicans held dozens of nearly-unanimous votes to repeal ObamaCare under President Obama, they were getting cold feet now that they control the levers of power.
“Sometimes you’re playing Fantasy Football and sometimes you’re in the real game,” he admitted. “We knew the President, if we could get a repeal bill to his desk, it would almost certainly be vetoed. This time we knew if it got to the President’s desk it would be signed.”
That’s about as blatant an admission of political fraud as you are ever likely to see.
Confirming that this was kabuki are Paul Ryan’s and Donald Trump’s reactions. Paul Ryan says they’re moving on from health care. After a very, very, very short effort. Trump is glad he got it out of the way:
Does Trump regret starting his agenda with health care? “No, I don’t,” he told me. “But in a way I’m glad I got it out of the way.”

Frauds. Charlatans. Liars.
I can’t exit the post without some reminders of how easy it was going to be:
We will immediately repeal and replace ObamaCare – and nobody can do that like me. We will save $’s and have much better healthcare!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 9, 2016
And this:
My first day in office I’m going to ask Congress to put a bill on my desk getting rid of this disastrous law, and replacing it with reforms that expand choice, freedom, affordability. You’re going to have such great health care at a tiny fraction of the cost, and it’s gonna be so easy.
Con artists.
Today’s lack of a vote was glorious. We avoided a disaster. But giving up now? Unforgivable.
Pass the real repeal you promised.
