Dems may drop Medicare expansion
Wait. So you exchange a public option for a Medicare expansion then you drop the Medicare expansion?
Of course.
Democrats (in power): We want to pass this bill that makes a lot of sense. It would help a lot of people and it’s supported by the majority of the population.
Republicans: No. You need to compromise.
Democrats: OK. Well, I guess we can do without this huge part over here. How about now?
Republicans: No. You need to compromise.
Democrats: Fine, we’ll kill this section, even though it’s pretty much the point. Now?
Republicans: No. You need to compromise.
Democrats: OK. Sorry. We’ll take out the last part. I’m not even sure if I know what’s left. How about now?
Republicans: No. You need to compromise.
It’s business as usual for the inept, incompetent, ever-bending-over Democratic Party.
