Boehner on the Republican Healthcare Plan

I want to take a break from Trump for a bit because in reality what’s getting ready to happen isn’t a Dem vs. the Trump thing, but more of the status quo of the GOP trying to come to terms with Trump on health care, the tax reform bill, the cost to build the wall, infrastructure, Russia/ Putin, free trade vs. protectionism, and other matters. The Dems have no say in this. They simply don’t have the votes. So what we’re getting ready to see is if the Republican party within itself can agree on something other than just voting ‘no’.

I think it’s pretty much pointless to be frothing at the mouth just about now. Instead, I’d take a step back, keep close notes, and see if the Republican party can be a party of governance instead of one which just panders to crony capitalism. If you were paying attention between 2001-2009, you might have a good idea where this is probably headed. But again, beating your head against a wall isn’t going to do any good. If all these people marching and venting at town hall meetings had simply voted we wouldn’t be having this national meltdown right down.

Read, keep notes, observe, quit getting your news off social media—and above all cast a vote nurtured with knowledge.

So–here’s former GOP Speaker of the House John Boehner talking healthcare reform circa February 23, 2017.

This is great and me laugh amidst Rome burning in the throes of ‘deconstruction’.
