Asian Americans Are Very Concerned About the ‘Trumpcare’ Vote on Twitter
The House of Representatives voted to “repeal and replace” the American Health Care Act, a.k.a. Obamacare, by 217 votes to 213 on Thursday.
“They’re not even doing it for the party,” President Donald Trump said as he celebrated with Republican House leaders and rank-and-file members in the Rose Garden at the White House, according to NBC News. “They’re doing it for this country because we suffered with Obamacare.”
The legislative victory comes just a few days after Trump’s 100th day in office.
“[I’ve] only been a politician for a short period of time. How am I doing? Am I doing okay? I’m president. Heh! Hey, I’m president!” Trump asked the people in the garden.
“Welcome to the beginning of the end of Obamacare,” Vice President Mike Pence told Republicans.
The new American Health Care Act — which guts key points of Obamacare including coverage subsidies, Medicaid expansion and the mandate that Americans buy insurance or receive a fine — is now being passed on to the Senate where the plan is expected to go through some changes.
The House chamber erupted in applause after voting hit the 216 mark, with protests from Democrats chanting “shame” and singing “Na na na na, Na na na na, Hey hey, goodbye”.
The Asian American community on Twitter chimed in and echoed the same sentiments — even conservative commentator and blogger Michell Malkin doesn’t support the bill, so you know it’s bad.
Finally, Americans of all political affiliations are united…in contempt for Beltway crapweasel Paul Ryan.#VoteNoAHCA

Disgraceful: Republicans in the House just voted to strip 24M Americans of their health care. I will do everything in my power to fight it. https://t.co/nEA10fBlEz

#Trumpcare hurts veterans, seniors, women, people w/ pre-existing conditions, kids. Only way it could be worse is if it also killed puppies. https://t.co/DaGRMiabaz

Rape, postpartum depression, c-sections, surviving domestic violence are pre-existing conditions. Being a woman is a pre-existing condition.

It sucks. It truly does. But they’ll be out next year. There’s that.

#TrumpCare squeaked through the House by four votes. Now we will fight until the end and kill the bill in the Senate. Lives are at stake. http://pic.twitter.com/EezrmXYKCo

217 Republicans just voted for a bill they know will force millions of sick Americans into bankruptcy, or worse. We will remember. Shame! http://pic.twitter.com/W78LBhtvhg

Congrats @GOP! Thank you red staters for sacrificing your health so that people like me might get a tax break. http://pic.twitter.com/nI3FzbrZB4

I wonder how many Republican reps are crossing their fingers that the Senate acts like big boys & kills the bill they just passed?

Called my senators to ask them to keep fighting this awful health care destruction bill. 202 lines were busy; had to call district offices.
