i have two maine senators coming on the show later today. i will ask senator susan collins about that maine risk pool. i want to go to taxes here. by the way, on health care, i know the president stressed the house votes in the next couple of weeks. you going to be able to sign a new version of health care, whether it s full repeal and replace or not, by the end of this year? i believe through a series of bills, that first one that we are hopeful there will be action in the house of representatives soon, and through executive action, and through further legislation that we ll deliver on our promise to repeal and replace obamacare, and give the american people the kind of world class health care they deserve. before the end of the year? not making that promise? i hope before the end of the year. look, again, i go back to the first point, chuck. i know you say it is debatable, get out across the country. obamacare has failed. every promise of obamacare has been broken. premiums h
kill it. and now there s renewed talk on capitol hill of a deal to resale and replace obamacare. how do you make sense of all of this? if you re a trump republican this stuff might look pretty darn good. i think we miss that sometimes. it might look even better if you were starting to worry that president trump was shape shifting into a mental of the washington establishment. remember we were talking about flip-flo flip-flops, his promotion of steve bannon and jared kushner? but promotion isn t necessariory movement. that order he is signing at the v.a.? he isn t the first to try to fix v.a. and he won t be the last. for reference, reagan s tax overhaul was final 100 papers long. there s a lot of room to spare to negotiate. that threat to kill nafta? it turned into this today.
we re still trying to separate noise. i welcome in my guests. how would you try to separate the noise from the action in this week? it you re seeing the chief executive who is running it like a chief executive. there s been some serious action in the first 100 days but it has been things that he can do unilaterally. like keystone. like the government hiring freeze. when it comes to working with congress, i think he s a very steam learning curve and i m not sure that we can come back from it. because obamacare, replacing
affordable care act. we need to be up front and open with the american public. it will be celebrated as sufficient. and two, it is what you can get out of them at this time. it is a testament to political reality and the way you move by inches. and should you be holding a vote on a bill that makes, that looks like it would be harder to get through the senate? rather than ethier through senate? again, that s beyond my pay grade. all i know is i think to get seventh faction within the conference, this idea of a federalism model, if vermont wants to go to the single payer system, it was essential to have something in there that sevenths could take home and say, wait. this is way in which this reflects conservative ideals and a move toward margaret place
