Addressing concerns about this. he did not get on the bandwagon. he still has not gotten on the bandwagon. at times i wonder if hes got special permission to oppose the president or at least not cheerlead for them. this is in line for how hes been for a long time and im hoping it starts a momentum because i too believe this bill does not move away from obamacare in any substantial sense. >> all of this happening as many are pointing out without hearings. in politics as we all know, where there i...

To pass it and obviously if youre in a republican primary you want to come up with a reason for that from the right rather than the left? >> i think most of the -- especially mike lee and if ben sass for instance is to come out and say hes against back sawin hes against it, i think they are going to approach it in the right and theyre going to say that this is not a bill that moves in the correct direction. it doesnt address the issues that we have in terms of health care. truce and others have ...

Seems like the longer these bills are out in public, p even without hearings, maybe you can explain why dont they want to hold hearings, but the longer theyre out the more opposition they face from doctors, insurers, and the people in your home state. >> when emotions are involved not everybody is clear thinking. i think thats one issue. number two, theres a lot of inequity right now this health care bill is about medicaid and purchasing through the exchange. both are broke sben need to be fixed...

They were told if we get the senate, the house, the presidency, well, now they have all three and the way the conservatives look at it is, this isnt a big enough departure from obamacare. so i think a lot of people just -- theyre not afraid of the effects of trumpcare in the same sense that democrats are concerned about it. i think its really they dont believe its conservative enough. and the senators are reacting to that. i think i heard ron johnson is more on the fence now than he was earlier....

Those people are letting their voice be heard as well. we all ran on repealing obamacare and its time the senate did their job. >> if these votes continue to crumble, and mccain is out, and there isnt a health care vote by august, what are you asking folks to do? is there any point you ask folks to move on? what are you going to do if theres no vote? >> theyre going to do it. i understand where everybody is at right now. they have to find a way to repeal obamacare, they have to find a way to get...

>> ill read briefly from what senator moran said. this is kansas and she doesnt mince words. he says i cannot support this. quote, we should not put our sfa stamp of approval on bad policy. that doesnt leave him room to get back in it. joining me on the phone is garrett headacaake. what are you hearing on the phone right now? >> this is the concern that maybe not one but multiple people would break through. nobody wanted to be the one person to potentially be responsible for killing the bill and...

Has to be the one who is singularly responsible for the death of this bill at least in this current format. thats what i take away from their statements. both of these men want to get to a point where they can repeal and replace obamacare but thats where the statements die diverge. mike lee wants to see this done in a way that lowers premiums, gets rid of the taxes in the bill. that was one of the changes in this draft that they were going to keep some of the obama taxes in there. jerry moran sa...

Presidency, well, now they have all three and the way the conservatives look at it is, this isnt a big enough departure from obamacare. so i think a lot of people just -- theyre not afraid of the effects of trumpcare in the same sense that democrats are concerned about it. i think its really they dont believe its conservative enough. and the senators are reacting to that. i think i heard ron johnson is more on the fence now than he was earlier. and now obviously mike lee has come out hard agains...

Ahead. >> we all wish john mccain a speedy recovery. we need him in more ways than one, but i believe we have a full contingent of senators and well have that vote. >> the word is out, you can see the protests kicking back into gear. there have been weeks of them. constituents during the delayed vote and at least 33 people ared on capitol hill, this was by mid afternoon today. >> kill the bill, dont kill us. kill the bill, dont kill us. >> that is the lobby of the heart senate prubl republican
