Speaker 1: March two thousand ten, Obamacare passed without a single Republican vote.
Speaker 1: Republicans told voters they needed control of the House to
Speaker 1: repeal it. Voters responded. November two, two thousand ten, they
Speaker 1: stunned Obama by turning Democrats out of office and record numbers.
Speaker 1: They removed Pelosi as speaker. They returned the House to Republicans,
Speaker 1: but it wasn't enough. Republicans sold voters they needed this
Speaker 1: Senate to repeal Obamacare. Voters responded two thousand fourteen, they
Speaker 1: defied the polls and the pundits gave the Senate to Republicans,
Speaker 1: but it wasn't enough. Republicans sold voters they were helpless
Speaker 1: with Obama holding the veto pen, Obamacare could not be repealed.
Speaker 1: The voters responded. In two thousand sixteen, they defied the
Speaker 1: posters of pundits and the Democrats. Once again. They denied
Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton the White House. They elected Trump, who said
Speaker 1: he would sign a bill to repeat Obamacare. Wednesday, July
Speaker 1: two thousand seventeen, holding all the cards, Republicans finally had
Speaker 1: their chance a clean repeal of Obamacare to a vote,
Speaker 1: Republican Senator Shelley Capedo Lamar Alexander, Susan Collins, Dean Heller,
Speaker 1: Lisa Murkowski, Rob Portman John McCain voted with the Democrats
Speaker 1: to keep Obamacare. The magnificent seven Republican Senators defined their
Speaker 1: own voters, giving them a middle finger. They proudly stood
Speaker 1: with Obama and the Democrats instead of the people who
Speaker 1: elected them. It was, and is, the political betrayal of
Speaker 1: this short century. M
