When asked if President Trump is setting a deadline for the Senate to pass its measure, Sanders said that the administration doesn't want to set an artificial deadline because she said the president is focused on "get it right, not fast." The House, however, voted on the GOP-sponsored legislation Thursday afternoon, just a day after revisions were made to it, and without a score from the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO).
Oh really? So why is it then that Trump pushed Republicans in the House to approve Trumpcare without an evaluation from the Congressional Budget Office, without public hearings and without the Representatives even reading the bill?
Which means even Trump doesn't want Trumpcare to be approved by the Senate and he wants to stall as much as he can.
It also means the bill approved in the House was just a big photo op so Trump and the Republicans could claim a political win.
But now that they have a bill that will cause 24 million people to lose their health insurance, Trump wants to claim a win without actually enacting it.
So Trump is just playing a game of mirages. He has no way of winning on healthcare, but he fabricated a way to claim he did, when in reality the Senate is not even going to vote on the House bill.
