The next time they can try again isn't until next year. And that's midterm year. It's dead. ACA is law of the land for basically ever now.

So much for coming back to it again in the future. Healthcare reform is dead, time to fail at tax reform too next.
Complete control of government but completely incompetent as well.

They need to move on to tax reform. Healthcare is done. They are going to be out of time to make any changes to healthcare that can't be filibustered. Any tax reform they try will be filibustered as well if they don't hurry and get it done through budget reconciliationThey will just try again next week. This is only a small win.

It probably can't pass the house without moving much closer to a full repeal bill, or it will get blasted with calls of "Obamacare-lite" (which it already is)People celebrating this don't seem to care that it was pulled because it was still too much healthcare.
That doesn't seem like good news.
@jonfavs: Republicans have tried and failed to kill Obamacare for seven years.
Trumpcare died in 17 days.
Trump isn't bringing up healthcare again anytime soon per @costareports

Costa on MSNBC: Trump says bill wont be coming back in near future & hell see if the Dems want to work with him on healthcare.
Nick Merrill @NickMerrill
No spin to be done here. This is the chief example of something hard that Trump won by calling easy. It was a farce, & he's been exposed.

Trump on the phone with the Washington Post, already trying to spin the failure

"I moved on her like a bitch. But I couldn't get there." - Donald J. Trump, 2005 and today
They pissed off the moderates too. A healthcare bill designed for the freedom caucus would piss off moderates even more than this one did. Remember that MORE reps actually said No once the last-minute freedom caucus concessions were in.People celebrating this don't seem to care that it was pulled because it was still too much healthcare.
That doesn't seem like good news.

Shame that forcing through huge tax cuts should be easier.
