I wont sugar coat this, this is a disappointing day for us. Democrats are declaring victory. Today is a great day for our country. Its a victory. Tonight, senator Bernie Sanders on how it fell apart after seven years of promising repeal. Real change begins with immediately repealing and replacing the disaster known as obamacare. [ cheers and applause ] and where we go from here with Michael Moore. I think we have to let obamacare go its way for a while. And another escalation in the devin nunes debacle when all in starts right now. Nobody knew health care could be so complicated. Good evening from los angeles, im chris hayes. Obamacare is alive and trumpcare is dead. And the Republican Party with control of the white house and majorities in both the senate and House Of Representatives is reeling tonight after failing to
