Page 2 - Ryan Plan News Today

Administrations top priority. >> vote tomorrow in the house. >> freedom caucus members explained that the trump administration is asking them to build a -- pass the bill now so the senate can fix it later. scott perry says thats like asking for a blank check. at least one of the senators, rand paul, says he doesnt think the current bill will make it to the house floor. >> if this ryan plan has to be pulled down, when it is pulled down, we will continue the debate. >> speaker ryan didnt dismiss s...

Without showing what the replacement was pure he said it will cost less and cover more people. thats clearly not the ryan plan. >> bret: to clarify, you say if obamacare is left as it is, you do not believe it will implode and that prices will continue to skyrocket. >> i believe thats right. we would be willing to work together to fix it. >> bret: today after the release last night of president trumps 2005 tax returns, does it rebut some of the claims, including secretary clinton, that he paid n...

White house, his loyalists, are trying to cut loose from paul ryan and are trying to make distance. and what i heard here was not that. what i heard here is he -- i think trump has decided he is tied to the mast of this ryan ship and that is the vehicle with which he is either going to succeed or fail on obamacare. and what he was saying is, it is a little bit contradictory, because he basically talked about the ryan plan. he also said we are going to get in a room and negotiate. so, he has got ...

Wash his hands of this, let the ryan plan, as he calls it, fail, then maybe let obamacare fail. thats his strategy. what do you think of that? >> listening to ana here, im beginning to think that that might be the thing to do. i mean, obamacare is failing. it is in fact imploding. insurance companies are backing out. im beginning to think, with all of these problems here with the ryan plan, et cetera, the best thing is to just step back and let it crash. and then when it crashes, there will be i...

And remove a controversial provision. >> i think after six years, we ought to fix it. we should not put a band-aid on it. i think the ryan plan is a band-aid with a bunch of insurance company bailouts and it does not fix the system. >> it is not the obamacare replacement plan. it is not the obamacare repeal plan weve been hoping for. this has been said as he sat in the wrong direction. if anything, its a missed opportunity. >> every republican 50 month ago voted for the clean repeal, why is it o...

Candidate trump ran on repeal without showing what the replacement was pure he said it will cost less and cover more people. thats clearly not the ryan plan. >> bret: to clarify, you say if obamacare is left as it is, you do not believe it will implode and that prices will continue to skyrocket. >> i believe thats right. we would be willing to work together to fix it. >> bret: today after the release last night of president trumps 2005 tax returns, does it rebut some of the claims, including sec...

Change to the ryan plan on healthcare reform, which would be imposed in phase two or phase three. changes are being made to the ryan plan. all of this happening moments ago and breaking moments ago. we also have this for you. all eyes on the dutch election today. early exit polls suggesting prime minister mark root winning the parliamentary election over populists. we go to the netherlands with the latest. >> we have gotten exit polls coming from the dutch elections. voting stopping 45 minutes a...

About this. we need to find out from director comey exactly what is going on. this has been going on since the summer. it predates the election. we need to get to the bottom of what the fbi knows. youre right, they may be counterterrorism or counterespionage operations being run. hes not capable of talking about that. surely, so many questions have been asked. director comey has not been shy previously but answering questions that have not been asked. >> martha: he can come on ongoing investigat...

Political, conservatively. it falls short of what the president promised in terms of coverage, certainly falls short being politically safe. what ryan and other republicans are banking on they can sell it, substantively correct. the problem with that is cbo cast doubt about whether substantively this plan should pass given what republicans claim their own goals are. >> when you think about the way you look at not just susan collins of the world but people like david purdue supporting trump in ev...

Health care bill. it is certain to strand frayed relationship between white house and leaders on capitol hill who are trying to garner support for their health care bill. that bill has infuriated some conservatives who see it as obamacare-lite. also worth noting president trumps strategist steve bannon is the former chair of breitbart. early in the day breitbart took time to highlight how the ryan plan will drop the number of insured by 24 million in 2016 citing newly released congressional budg...
