‘GOP admits to being out of ideas’: RNC buried in mockery after demanding health care plan from Clintons

The Republican National Committee challenged Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton and Democratic lawmakers to come up with their own health care plan, if they didn’t like what GOP senators were cooking up — and social media users pounced.

The RNC’s official Twitter account issued the challenge to the Clintons, neither of whom currently hold elected office, along with Sens. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), Joe Manchin (D-WV) and Elizabeth Warren (D-MA).

“Our healthcare system is collapsing, but Democrats refuse to bring anything to the table,” the RNC tweeted. “Where’s THEIR plan?”

Democratic lawmakers have said they would not participate in any efforts to repeal the Affordable Care Act, which Republicans have threatened to do since it passed into law and President Donald Trump promised to do immediately upon election. Twitter users heaped mockery on the challenge, and pointed the RNC to health care reform plans posted on the campaign websites for Hillary Clinton and Sanders.

1. Did you see HRC's reply to that idiotic GOP tweet? She gave 'em a plan :)

Stupid idiots stepped right into that one.

2. Everytime she does something like this, I think what a missed opportunity.

Smart, funny, to the point, and clearly has the sense to have someone managing her Twitter account.

4. Great reply from Hillary. The Republicans look like idiots.

I hope that Republicans don't force their horrible bill through.

9. Not to diminish Mrs. Clinton (the real winner of the election) in any way, but ...

making Republicans look like idiots is a lot like shooting fish in a barrel. Mostly you just have to stand there. They pride themselves on out-stupiding each other.

5. "RNC challenged Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton and Democratic lawmakers to ....

... to come up with their own health care plan ..."

Didn't she already do that in like 1993? they really are that fucking stupid...Dammnnnnn.

[Boomerproud]

8. They have had 24 years to come out with their plan.

I'm very happy she responded. Yes, they really are that fucking stupid.

6. Ask Rump. I'm sure it'll fit into 140 characters. nt

[Astraea]

7. Uhh.....

We already have a plan. It's called the Affordable Care Act. If that's not good enough for you, I'm sure single-payer healthcare will do.

10. I thought it was the ACA

Wasn't that the Democratic plan
Okay...
Actually... it is the Democratic plan since it's in place
Republikkans just do not know how to govern

[WinkyDink]

11. The arrogance. The stupidity. The...have I mentioned stupidity?? THE ENTIRE PARTY IS DEMENTED!!!!!!!

[ProudLib72]

14. Is this really going to be a RW talking point?

McConnell hid the repuke plan from all Dems, so why didn't you Dems do anything to help out? Seriously? I mean are they that fucking stupid?

[NastyRiffraff]

15. Yes, they are

that fucking stupid. For seven years they fought the ACA, said they would have a "better" plan. They didn't then and still don't. Now they're whining because the DEMOCRATS won't help them.

Nobody told them that governing is hard.
