Republicans suddenly realize voters hate their health care cuts

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

New disclosures from Republican lawmakers reveal concerns within the party that voters may punish the GOP if proposed cuts to health care in the Donald Trump-backed “One Big, Beautiful Bill” become law. The measure, which squeaked through the House without any Democratic support late last month, is currently under consideration in the Senate.

Politico reported on Wednesday that House Speaker Mike Johnson is telling Senate Republican leadership that he fears the party could lose its razor-thin majority if further cuts to Medicaid are added.

The outlet reports that Senate Majority Leader John Thune is “under immense pressure to water down the Medicaid provisions the Senate GOP is counting on for hundreds of billions of dollars worth of savings.”

Republican Sen. Thom Tillis of North Carolina has also been sounding the alarm for his party.

2. This whole bill is a hot pile of garbage

Usually they throw us commoners a bone in exchange for billionaire tax cuts. This bill has nothing good in it for 99% of people.

4. GOP will lie to their constituents, as they always do. Later when their constituents squawk...

…they’ll lie some more and blame it on Biden.

Unless by some miracle the whole thing goes down in flames in the next few days.

5. Oh Noes!

Republican toadies are getting worried??

Didn't they hear Mitch McConnell's comforting statement: They'll get over it? Underscored by Joni Ernst's comment: We're all going to die?

If they missed the brilliant words, then they should click Ernst's video, her stroll through a cemetery.

So peaceful and silent and reassuring.

Because that's where you suckers are going to be if you yank healthcare from millions of Americans.

Even the dead will rise up to clobber your sorry asses.

6. They will blame the Democrats in the fascist media that they own.

I hope we are prepared for that.

7. But the voters "will get over it."
