The latest Trump sidestep from reality is his contention that the Senate had the votes for health care but one Republican Senator was in the hospital. The problem with this scenario is it is not true. The question is how long will his devoted supporters continue to believe these "inaccurate" statements is the real thing to watch out for. Another thing to watch out for is what the Senate does on health care now that the fever of repeal and replace seems to have broken. They quietly passed a measure that would expand Obamacare medicare protections. Can bipartisan Obamacare market stabilization legislation be that far behind? Let us hope so.
