The topic of discussion for this
Constitution Monday concerns the repeal – or lack thereof – of Obamacare. The
Republican Party claimed that they needed to have the U.S. House of
Representatives in order to exert power. The people gave the House to them. The
party then said that they needed the Senate to have any real effect. The people
gave the Senate to them. Then they wanted the White House, and the people gave
it to them. Donald Trump has been in office for almost six months, and
Obamacare has not yet been repealed. The people are understandably upset and are
demanding to know the reason.
Senator Pat Toomey (R-Pa.) recently gave the best reason for the delay. Toomey was asked a question by an
ABC news anchor about the repeal of the Affordable Care Act, otherwise known as
Obamacare, at a recent town hall. The Senator bluntly said, “I didn’t expect
Donald Trump to win. I think most of my colleagues didn’t. So we didn’t expect
to be in this situation.” In other words, Republicans felt that they were free
to say whatever the people wanted to hear because they were not worried about
actually doing what they said they would do.
This writer is becoming more and
more convinced that the current members of Congress – with a few exceptions –
are not really interested in doing the will of the people. Apparently, it is
time to replace Republicans in Congress in order to help President Trump drain
the swamp. This writer is very anxious to vote Alaska’s RINO, Senator Lisa
Murkowski, out of office!
