"SNIP..............
I happen to believe he doesn't care what the plan is," he said.
"I don't care what he said, but I know that if he can get something through, hes not going to [say], I'm an ideological guy on healthcare. "
Republicans tried to revive their healthcare bill this week after the original GOP plan failed to win enough Republican votes in the House.
Negotiations between lawmakers exacted some concessions for conservatives, including a path for states to opt out of some ObamaCare provisions. But no vote has been scheduled, and whether the party has enough support to pass a bill remains unclear.

No, he doesn't give a damn if anything replaces it as long as it's overturned. The Republican Party as a whole agrees with him, they've had seven years to come up with a workable alternative and they've done nothing.
That's right, nothing.
They need to be pilloried for this. No one has the guts to do it.

This is who he is. He sues people for far less. He is petty, spiteful, and vindictive and has the thinnest skin on the planet.
