And ive got to say this. biden was a lot better. you know, he -- it was a circular firing squad and he was in the middle. and it was really -- i think he withstood the attacks pretty well, had some wobbles from time to time. but overall he was much stronger and much more forceful. his delivery was so much stronger than he was in the last debate. >> joy reid, joe scarborough had a good night in that we heard julian castro mention moscow mitch before the end of the evening. ive also been following...

Personally, multiple times. i appreciate the work he was doing. and i think what hes doing is clearing the deck saying, look it, we have until september 30th on this part san approach our leadership wants to go, when that fails, i dont think a senator like senator alexander, senator murray, are going to just allow people to suffer. and thats my hope is the outcome of this ultimately will come down. we can focus on the people back home rather than the politics that have gotten us into this partis...

A holdout, alaska has particular challenges as a very high cost state. they are trying to get her to support the bill by essentially letting alaska keep the care. it shows in 2026 his health care proposal would award each state precisely $4400 in federal subsidy for each eligible beneficiary except alaska which would receive 6500 or 48% more than everybody else. what do you think of that? >> well, listen, i think there is an easy way to solve the problem. just give every state the deal that alas...

In the spring and i can expect shell oppose this legislation, too. >> you raised a point under noticed and mario senator had a good piece, lets say this passes. all of a sudden you got 50 states that have to erect from scratch in two years of health care system with less funding than now. this is the mississippi state insurance commission there said he was wary about the change. which evil do you like better, the one you know or dont know. there are better ways to do this. that the someone in th...

If they actually make this law. >> so i think this is a really important point. lost in this is the fact this bill would end the exchanges set up under the affordable care act. now, in connecticut, we have our own state based exchange. now, we couldnt make it work with the amount of money that we would get. it would fall apart but at least if we wanted to, we could put state dollars behind our existing exchange. in states that didnt set up a state-based exchange that rely on the federal exchange...

Association, and a whole host of others. and now the health insurance industry itself has come out forcefully against it. saying the bill would increase costs, destabilize the market, and undermine safeguards for people with pre-existing conditions. keep in mind the american people, including much of the gop base as far as we can tell, are not fans of the gop repeal and replace effort either. every bill republicans have put forth has polled abysmally, even among republican voters. last month the...

Home. when i talk to people, and theyre losing health care, theyre losing access to care under obamacare, we cant do nothing. if this fails, if and when it fails, which i think it will be now theres the opportunity to say, lets put politics aside and start solving problems for the american people. >> but heres the problem. there was the senate had started this bipartisan undertaking. theyve restored regular order and you had lamar alexander and patty murray, together in their committee having wi...

Concern by governor christie and pete king. but at the end of the day, when we look at the issue of obamacare and the premiums going up, deductibles going up, people are suffering. what im hoping we can do is maybe, if this doesnt go forward which i dont think it will in the senate, we can maybe take a bipartisan, work across the aisle in sin certificate faith, to get to the issue of health care costs in america. thats where id like to see this debate go. >> so i just want to be clear. i mean, i...

State dollars behind our existing exchange. in states that didnt set up a state-based exchange that rely on the federal exchange. if they want to continue subsidizing through the individual market, they would have to set up an exchange and simply could not do it because the only way we did it in connecticut was we were funded by the federal government in the first couple years to get it up and running. states that dont have those, largely red states couldnt do it on their own. so these subsides ...
