That's like bringing a date to see your wife in the hospital (Hindsight is 2020)



They knew they could only afford to lose two votes and Rand Paul and John McCain were already "no's." Then last night, Maine Senator Susan Collins said she wasn't falling for it. One reason was the CBO score, which technically hasn't come out, but they did release an estimate yesterday showing that "the number of people with comprehensive health insurance would be reduced by millions." Yeah, nothing specific, just millions. –Stephen Colbert

As this point, the folks at the CBO must be so tired of analyzing healthcare bills, they're just free-balling it. "What, a new bill? Yeah, let me run the numbers. Yeah, yeah everybody dies!" –Stephen Colbert

So that's it. It's over! And, "The GOP Is already eyeing the next chance to revive the Obamacare repeal." What! What! Already? Graham-Cassidy isn't even dead yet! That's like bringing a date to see your wife in the hospital. –Stephen Colbert

slash the tires on all the ambulances (But Rhode Island isn't!!)



Senate Republicans announced today they will not hold a vote on the Graham-Cassidy bill to repeal and replace Obamacare after they were unable to secure enough support. But Republicans plan to come back with a new plan where they just slash the tires on all the ambulances. –Seth Meyers

President Trump said today that getting relief efforts to Puerto Rico after the devastation caused by Hurricane Maria is tough because "It's an island." And then, proving he just learned it, yelled, "But Rhode Island isn't!!" –Seth Meyers

I haven't been this excited about something being dead since Bin Laden



Thank you for joining us on a day of great relief for many millions of Americans. Because the Graham-Cassidy healthcare bill, a bill I've been speaking out against all week, it shall not pass. Senator McConnell decided to pull the vote. They didn't have the votes. I haven't been this excited about something being dead since Bin Laden. –Jimmy Kimmel
  
Today was President Trump's 250th day in office. Or, as he put it, "longer than any President in history." –Seth Meyers

when a dog barks, you actually understand what he is trying to communicate


  
Congressional Republicans are trying to repeal and replace Obamacare with a new proposal called the Graham-Cassidy Bill. Yesterday Donald Trump tweeted his support for the bill saying, “I would not sign Graham-Cassidy if it did not include coverage of pre-existing conditions, it does, a great Bill, repeal and replace.” Now there are two things wrong with that tweet. One, it doesn’t cover pre-existing conditions. And two, he didn't have to capitalize the word “Bill.” –James Corden

Meanwhile, today North Korea’s foreign minister responded to Donald Trump’s speech at the United Nations saying that Trump’s threats to destroy their country are just “the sound of a dog barking.” Now that's not fair because when a dog barks, you actually understand what he is trying to communicate. –James Corden
