president. and it s shown weaknesses in the president. he didn t kill the king here. i don t understand. today senate republicans take a stab at dismantling obama care after failing to pass anything yesterday. in the afternoon the senate rejected a repeal option that would have provided a two-year delay of implementation. the vote was 45-55 with 7 republicans oh posing the. a similar bill passed in 2017 but was vetoed by president obama. later in the day they decided to block a democratic measure that would order lawmakers to return to health care bill to committee. when the senate returns this morning, will will be ten more hours of debate followed by a so-called vote-a-rama. senators will be able to offer amendments to be voted on without debate. while democratic senators chris
