Day 190 (July 28, 2017)

In today’s issue: This is the end, of Trumpcare.

The Obamacare repeal effort is dead! Thanks to all 48 Democratic Senators and 3 Republican Senators — Senator Susan Collins (R-ME), Senator Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), and most surprisingly, Senator John McCain (R-AZ).

Remember when Trump was happy about McCain leaving mid-cancer treatment to vote?

Ha!

McCain voted on the right side of history and had people — not his reputation — in mind.

What a dramatic turn of events. The GOP was thiiiiis close to passing the skinny repeal we told you about yesterday.

Collins, Murkowski, and McCain were brave enough not to cave to the immense pressure on them from their party leaders and from POTUS himself.

While most expected Collins and Murkowski to defect, McCain was quite a shocker. Here’s what happened:

McConnell says “many of our colleagues on the other side are celebrating.” As you should be. They are celebrating the fact that millions of Americans will not lose health insurance. They are celebrating the fact that premiums will not rise because the individual mandate still exists. And they are celebrating that this horribly led and horribly executed process, which denied a majority of senators access and transparency, failed miserably.

Oo victory tastes so sweet. And so does having healthcare. Trump is less happy though.

This is a huge blow to the Donald who promised to repeal and replace Obamacare on “day one.”

Says a lot about his party’s faith in him to execute such a plan.

Anyway, as Schumer said last night…

It’s time to turn the page. Today, I recommend you turn it to the New Yorker story featuring the new White House Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci a.k.a “the mooch.”

Or just watch Stephen Colbert’s take:
