Trump attempted to bully Party of Destruction Congressmen to rush his healthcare plan through the legislation process in two days. He was behind schedule; he had promised to “repeal and replace Obamacare on day one.” He is ignorant regarding the process, which often takes weeks and possibly months to reach compromises, not only between the two parties, but also within his own. After its complete failure, he and other members of the Party of Destruction attempted to place the blame entirely on a small number of his party known as the Freedom Caucus. This is entirely inaccurate.

If Trump and Paul Ryan would have capitulated to this group’s demands, moderates would have refused to cast their ballots in favor of this horrific bill. For Trump and Ryan, it was a ‘no win’ situation. The bill, partially written by Ryan, was horrific. It would have been a disaster for most Americans; especially older voters. Trump, who is totally uninformed about the process to pass legislation, attempted to bully the Party of Destruction to pass it immediately. His bullying and a Trump ultimatum doomed its passage. The fault is all Trump’s, and his unqualified and inexperienced advisers and cabinet members.

The “Freedom Caucus” was but a single element which guaranteed the failure of Trumpcare.

It’s sad that the American people must endure such an ignorant and immoral president. He will never be mine; will you accept him?
