Reply to "Republicans Pull Healthcare Legislation Plan in Blow to Trump"

It's difficult to look at what's happened with the Republicans and not look at it as a loss for Trump.  I don't think, though, that Trump will let it get him down though but that he will pivot over to Tax Cuts or some other promise with a return back to healthcare legislation.   What is really embarrassing for the Republicans, or I would think so, is that when Obama was President they passed many bills for repeal and yet none of those is seeing the light of day with Trump as President.  That being the case it seems it could be argued that the Republicans only passed the bills because they knew Obama would never sign them.  It's a cop out.   That said Obamacare deserves to die and never should have seen the light of day because it is, at it's core, unconstitutional and I, personally, don't care if Chief Justice Roberts invented a way for it to be declared as Constitutional.   AS I see it he deserves part responsibility for this mess because he declared it constitutional because he declared it to be a tax, something that even the Democrats who passed it and came up with it claimed it wasn't. 

The free market should be the avenue for Healthcare and Insurance and not the government deciding for everyone and forcing people to obtain any product.

As far as Trump pivoting on to other parts of his agenda I do feel that if he is not successful with the promised tax cuts, particularly for Business then he risk the stock market tanking as well as the promises from businesses looking forward to a tax rate cut being pulled and a downward spiral from there.  But I don't think that will be the case or I sure hope it won't be.
