You are confusing amendments to the Constitution with making/repealing laws.
The republicans merely need to hold onto the majority in both house and senate, which they will, easily. The reason the law hasn't been changed or repealed now is because the current president will not sign what the house and senate pass. They could/should impeach him, but that would be considered racist and we can't have that now can we... So please take your conjecture and misinformation somewhere else. Oh and just for fun. Any Republican President could simply tell the IRS to stop collecting the life tax, just like Obama tells government agencies not enforce the laws he chooses. Then the law will collapse in on itself with lack of funding and w/e democrat holdouts in the senate or house who refuse to vote for its repeal will be blamed for shutting down the government, which will happen if this scenario comes to pass. But considering every single democrat I know is a massive hypocrite they will all whine and cry about Republicans blah blah blah.

Repealing federal laws requires a simple majority AND presidential signature or 60% to override a veto. Budget reconciliation is just the tax associated with the mandate. Really, none of that has anything to do with Trump, which is why I asked in the first place. Offline

Which means republicans will either have to win ~2/3 of both house and the presidency or stop stonewalling and come to the table with real alternatives.

Altimaomega said: » Shiva.Viciousss said: » Every GOP candidate is running on that platform, thats just a cop out. What policy unique to Trump has he proposed that would make a better America? Nope not a cop out. A cop out is you not ever posting anything relevant and thinking I need to justify anything to you. You want me to go more in depth tell me who you would vote for and why. Am I the only one that appreciates this cop-out^2? It even attempts to change the commonly held definition of cop out. Which if he honestly believes might help to explain why he so confused over how what he failed to say is a cop out. If you don't think you need to justify any claim you make then you shouldn't even be talking, just go live in a box where no one will question you. And you definitely shouldn't get upset if anyone makes any fallacious/ridiculous claim as no one else needs to justify anything to you as well, cant have double standards. Think about what you said here. You basically attempted to dismantle the vehicle of intellectual discourse, and you did it all to give yourself the right to ignore a question. Thats crazy man. Why is this so hard, repealing the law is different than reconciling the mandate tax. They can reconcile the tax, but that doesn't repeal the law and has nothing to do with Trump. Either you don't understand the difference between budget reconciliation and repealing a law or you're just being a dumbass. Either way, you never answered the question I asked, and I really don't care anymore.

That was wrong. The fact of the matter is is congress can repeal the law with a majority vote. The President could stop the tax. So what exactly are you arguing couldnt happen? Offline

I simply tossed in the reconciliation part for fun because that is ANOTHER option. You are the one spreading misinformation here. Look. Altimaomega said: » Oh and just for fun. Also..

We realize that ***is stupid and wrong, but apparently the proper way to oppose the sentiment is with a Care Bear care beam. No matter. Bigots lose in the long run one way or another. So, it's not about bringing about a lasting change in the right way, it's about winning. Glad we got that cleared up. Not only are you just as bigoted as the bigots, but you don't see yourself as a bigot, even if we point it out to you. Phoenix.Amandarius

After Crushing Defeat, DNC Quirk Still Gives Hillary More New Hampshire Delegates Than Sanders
Socialism at work. It's only fair. Why should Bernie get to keep all of the delegates that he has earned? Hillary worked hard for votes too. The DNC is so crooked. The fix was in for Hillary a long time ago. Voters be damned. I thought it was already obvious that the democrats/liberals don't give a damn about the people and voters.

Speaking of dumb things this is what they are doing at Ivy League schools:

Definitely sure not serious but this is a course available to anyone. Considering the obesity epidemic in the US, more people should climb some trees, move some limbs, quit scarfing down Donald's droppings etc. Lakshmi.Sparthosx said: » Just put us all in a warehouse with Gunsmoke on the TV.
