Trump humiliated completely as Obamacare replacement fails in House

Republicans withdrew Trump's favored legislative plan to replace Obamacare on Friday, understanding that they lacked the votes to pass it in the House of Representatives. This despite the president's threat to leave Obamacare as law of the land if they did not give the American Health Care Act an up-or-down hearing today.

The GOP bill—a comically spiteful mutant of Obamacare itself stripped of everything people like about it and little that they don't—held only a 17% public approval rating, according to a Quinnipac poll. It attempted to please conservatives, who want unfettered profitability for insurance companies, and moderates wary of killing quite so many poor people as this would entail.

Trump, however, made clear that he isn't blaming House Speaker Paul Ryan for its failure.https://twitter.com/costareports/status/845358347801055233

Run, Paul. Run!
