He wrote on Twitter early this Saturday, “We are making great progress with healthcare. ObamaCare is imploding and will only get worse. Republicans coming together to get job done!”


No, no, and no.

Republicans are not coming together to “get the job done” of “making great progress with healthcare.” Actually, what’s happening is that a powerful small group of Republican leaders are working feverishly to remove as many safeguards as possible from the healthcare system as quickly as possible.

Subsidies to ensure that poor people don’t die a preventable death due to lack of healthcare? Out the window! After all, these “coming together Republicans” have to protect the interests of their rich buddies before those of the poor, right?

With the Republican healthcare plan including massive tax cuts for the wealthy at the expense of the subsidized health care programs that serve the poor of the United States, it can hardly be said, Mr. President, that you’re making “great progress with healthcare.”
