do a bipartisan thing. but the republican leadership doesn't believe this is viable. there are some senators who say we should start from scratch and do it in a bipartisan fashion. i can tell you the white house doesn't believe that's realistic. >> let me jump in there. that's why the white house and some folks at the white house like this idea of doing repeal first and replace later. they believe. and i don't know if this will end up being true. but they believe if they could get the repeal part of this off the table, with purely republican support, it is that repeal word that is radioactive that democrats don't want anything to do with it. they think, they hope, they speculate if they get the repeal part of it done, they might have democrats working with republicans on the replace part. but i think you can make the counterargument that a republican only effort it repeal only poisons the well further and would make it harder for depps s democrats to come back to the table. >> it seems like the bargaining chip, it seems look aharshbarg
