republican party only worried about their own self interest about the are less evident public, it is by policies they have written. electing more cons or office is one the of the worst things we could possibly do. host: thanks for calling. is the washington times take on this, front page today. it die, he's t referring to the obamacare, the so-called obamacare bill. they write the president hreatened tuesday to let the obamabill collapse under its own weight. senator chuck schumer spoke yesterday in reaction to the said let obamacare fail, here is what the senator had to say. be very clear about what the president is proposing would lead.s path

the president would not be collapse," heacare is actively, actively trying to systemne the health care in this country using millions americans as political pawns in a cynical game. the ntinuing to deny surance markets their certainty they need to function, the president is playing a with the health care of our country. republican colleagues here in have a choice to make, they can follow the president down path that will to higher premiums, less of americans ons losing coverage. they can join president trump in sabotage the system and hurt millions of innocent try and make a political point that is failed

already. r they can start working with democrats. host: more headlines, second replacement has been kill gop bill, the dayton aily news, the alaska dispatch news this morning, merkowski, epublican of the state, rejecting aca repeal as flows.ican effort moving on, the press telegram out of long beach, california, is the headline, prognosis, southland patient health care bill fails, moving from california to crumbles.a.c.a. here is the president's quote, let obamacare fail. journal star from pe illinois. a.c.a. repeal effort sputters and another headline here from

to exist in our country, they to try anything they can o eradicate it just to put something else in do america health. don't understand it, i don't see why they don't tweet what is is high, premium should be no problem bringing it down with less money, but at the want to go ahead on and cancel everything because obama name is on it. they don't want obama to take of they mama. host: shern, your take on the debate in washington? caller: good morning, thank you for taking my call. believe that our democrats, ur leadership, it's time for them to step up. they need to reach across the this.e need to repair we have so many people who are

finally able to get coverage with the a.c.a. we need them to continue having that. us who have insurance through our employers, our skyrocketed, to see an't get in doctors or specialists because they won't accept our insurance whereas before all his happened, they would have accepted. we need to step up as people, we to come -- what the previous caller stated, it's frightening to me that it would come down to race, believes that. it is race, it can't be that way. we have got to step up as people demand they repair it, do not repeal it, repair it. with are finally covered this, that is my take. host: okay, about 10 minutes the before we send it to

leader mcconnell decided to work up a different bill inside office and let trump on the sideline where he stayed. t might have seemed right move back then, pushing away unpopular president whose thin more cerebrial -- reach consensus needed to repeal dreaded affordable care act tweett the din of trump's storms getting in the way. week, however -- of how difficult major legislative undertakings can do, picking ights with t.v. note host and randy is calling from michigan. good morning. morning, paul, i'd like to start by thanking you and all the men and women blind

scenes for bringing this great show. thank you, you are doing a great the nation. being only a high school graduate, i learned in civics when you have of house, senate and presidency, that you own under your pens watch. , on the aca, he made it clear he didn't want democrats.the this one here, mr. trump, you're owns it, so are the republicans, you want, you brag seven ving a plan for years, you're the guys that go 't get it done, don't blame us democrats, we asked you way back to start, you didn't us. to join we didn't invoke that reconciliation back then.

to join, thank -- for host: go ahead, john. caller: good morning. thank god for c-span because it allows us americans, real to voice our opinions. mitch mcconnell in the beginning of barack obama's presidency, said one thing he's going to toward is time making opinions. president obama a one-term president. willing to work with him on anything, he wasn't illing to discuss with him and he made his stance from the beginning. i think this is personal. this is personal with republicans, mitch mcconnell and against barack obama. they don't call it the health are plan, a.c.a., they call it the rock obamacare, that is wrong. i think president trump fhe to make america great, because we're democrats, e're republicans, we're

independents in america f. he wants to make america great he n, like he says, then would bring democrats onboard, drain the swamp, that would drain the swamp. bring democrats onboard, republicans onboard, and do a ts onboard healthcare plan, tweak what we already have and you can call it call it, ou want to make it right for the american people. great, like he said. that is my comment, start americans ether as and come up with solutions to make it great for america and stop doing bickering and fussing and arguing, it looks ridiculous, it does to me as an my life, got to look crazy to foreigners and folks from the outside looking allowing me toor enforce my opinion. host: words of john there in writes about senator o'connell, blow to the majority obamacaree failure of lowest point at the g.o.p.

speak up about that a little bit more. they never seem to talk about it. they never bring up the fact obstructionists like republicans have been is ructionists, i think it funny even the bipartisanship going on in this country, he's a carnival barker and they all know it and still support him. frustrating. that is all i want to say. host: one last caller, i think nelson from st. louis. agree good morning, i what the lady just said, president obama came in, epublicans made a vow they would do everything and they aid, i mean, everything, according to john boehner, to down or obstruct president obama. o the affordable care act was originally a republican idea took on fornt obama

himself and then republicans 145 able to submit amendments to the affordable own act, they oppose their amendments. so, the trouble, then they tried program, that is why we're having trouble with obamacare right now. opposition. host: nelson, thanks for calling. time to go live to the u.s. hour. for morning legislative business at noon today, energy on the agend a. lays before the house a communication from the speaker. the clerk: the speaker's rooms, a. hington, d.c. lays before thh ouse a communication from the speaker. 2017.9, i hereby appoint the honorable 2017. i hereby appoint the honorable bruce westerman to act as speaker pro tempore on this day. signed, paul d. ryan, speaker of the house of representatives. the speaker pro tempore: pursuant to the the spr
