Senate Republicans brush off Trump's healthcare demands

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Senate Republicans appear poised to ignore President Trump's demands that they immediately resurrect ObamaCare repeal and abolish the legislative filibuster.

Trump has waged a public pressure campaign against GOP senators since they failed to pass even a “skinny” bill repealing ObamaCare last week. 

Unless Republicans are “total quitters,” Trump tweeted, they will revive their yearslong effort to repeal and replace ObamaCare. While they’re at it, Trump wrote, Republicans should get rid of the 60-vote procedural hurdle for legislation, saying they “look like fools and are just wasting time.”  

But Trump’s demands might fall on deaf ears. 

Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) warned reporters Monday not to “leap to conclusions” that Republicans won't be able to pass a healthcare bill, but he appeared to hint that a second vote isn’t imminent. 

“What we do know is next is nominations and hopefully [Senate Minority Leader Charles] Schumer will agree to break the logjam ... and that would be a good use of our next two weeks,” the No. 2 Senate Republican said. 

Sen. Roy Blunt (R-Mo.), another member of Senate GOP leadership, said Republicans could circle back to healthcare when they reach a consensus. Until then, “it’s time to move on” and put “wins on the board," he said.
