Rep. Jim Jordan was on with CNN’s Chris Cuomo this morning discussing the health care debacle and why full repeal needs to happen first.
Watch:
Jim Jordan schools Cuomo, who continually tries to suggest that a new Republican bill will create all these ‘casualties’ or that it will leave people without health care. He’s completely ignoring the casualties that Obamacare is leaving in its wake, which Jordan reminds him off.
Cuomo is so set against the idea of repeal that he doesn’t even hear Jordan explain that there’s a two year draw down period on the actual repeal so that it gives Republicans ample time to implement better solutions before the repeal actually takes effect. Jordan has to tell him this at least twice as Cuomo keeps complaining about how a repeal bill will leave people in the lurch or something!
In any event, I really like what Jordan is proposing here and it’s really the path Republicans should have taken from the get go.
