President Trump better do this if these despicable rhinos don't do their job. I'm so disgusted with congress.

[kimmiekash]

These Members average $180k a year, Health subsidies worth maybe 4k ... a joke

[KeepItReal]

Absolutely the right thing to do!!! Let Congress suffer for their inaction and corruption!!!

[moviemakerwannabe]

I'm confused by this because Rand Paul said less than a week ago when asked about the fairness of them getting a different deal on health care that he didn't have a different deal it was the same as everyone else has. Does he just not know what the difference is?

What percentage of congress makes 6 figures?? What percentage makes 7 figures??? Doubt they feel it in there pockets.

Fernando Garza do you have any idea what you are saying?this is not about trump anymore it's about the stupid Senate that is not doing any crap, and the hard working Americans are just sick and tired of this.

[andreakae]

Or give the same subsidies to every American. Congress is full of millionaires who won't be all that affected by this. Instead of punishing people president should be helping people who need it.

What do you republicans ha ve on your hands?

[ktr]

Maybe this threat from Trump will help to get Democrats to come to the table to help pass healthcare legislation.

[djdj-tict]

year right, very presidential Mr president.

[mortarpestle.]

"Vote for me or I won't pay you!"

[yukiinu]

next he's going to hold his breath until his face turns blue, and stamp his feet on the floor until congress doe what he wants.

[warmarinedisipline]

ITS ALREADY LAW Congress shall make NO LAW ....

[JamesBond-ukcj]

GOD BLESS, PRESIDENT WILL WIN A 2ND GOWDY 46TH PRESIDENT

[mrpoolplayer]

Our illustrious leaders have no intention of getting "we the people" a good insurance policy. They don't vote in a positive manner for us, they vote positive & plenty for themselves. They are TERRIBLE people.

[nevahess]

Seven years worth of health repeal.The President should resind their coverage and perks, pull this particular rug out from them, put a boot in their butt and get to work seriously, no more dilly dallying.

[jessd]

One of the few things I actually agree with.. Doubt this will lead to single payer but again, this is about the only thing I agree with I've seen from Trump.
