i don't want to make any assumptions about what leader mcconnell is proposing but i think that is the -- that's the discussion he's hoping to generate, okay, you don't like what the house proposed and don't like what the leadership office proposed, here's the straight up repeal that 49 senators voted for in december of 2015 and one of those new senators voted for it as a house product. there's your 50 votes plus the vice president, good to go, send it to the president. >> but bottom line is that may not actually happen. in preparation for that not actually happening, i understand you've laid it out very clearly for us but in preparation for that not really happening, could you really knowing know what you know from the cbo and i understand a lot of people want to discount the cbo. but knowing what you know, could you support a repeal that doesn't come with a replace? >> well, clearly house and senate majorities did vote for that in december of 2015.
