I guess we shoulda seen this coming:
Thx for your leadership @realDonaldTrump @SpeakerRyan Some only want to be the party of 'no' & would've voted against the 10 commandments
— Ted Poe (@JudgeTedPoe) March 24, 2017
I'm committeed to working w/ @realDonaldTrump @SpeakerRyan & colleagues to provide affordable health care w/o Obamacare mandates #TimetoLead

So he’s comparing Trump and Obamacare lite to the Holy God, Author of all the universe, and his Ten Commandments, the first covenant between The Lord of Creation and all of humanity?
Yeah, that’s reasonable.
Who needs freedom when you got TrumpCare?
