BREAKING! Two Senators just KILLED Senate’s Trumpcare!!

Senators Mike Lee and Jerry Moran just MURDERED the GOP Senate repeal and replace bill.

From CNN:

Only hours after the Senate was gaveled back into session, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell was handed devastating news Monday evening: Two more defections on his health care bill that could doom the entire effort for the foreseeable future.

The dramatic simultaneous announcement from Sens. Jerry Moran of Kansas and Mike Lee of Utah means McConnell officially does not have the votes to even begin debate on his legislation to overhaul Obamacare.

In announcing their opposition to the bill, Moran and Lee said they would vote “no” on the motion to proceed — a vote that McConnell had hoped to hold this week but was already forced to postpone due to Arizona Sen. John McCain’s absence from Washington this week.

Aaaaaand it’s dead. And that’s not good.

I foresee a lot of hot takes and a lot of outrage…

UPDATE:

Meadows wants a simple repeal bill.

Yeah, I doubt they have the political will for that…
