Trump: GOP Senators 'Look Like Fools' Over Health Care Vote
Jul 30, 2017, 12:24 AM
President Donald Trump slammed the Republican faction of the Senate Saturday morning, tweeting that their failure to get the 51 votes needed to pass legislation like Friday's "skinny" repeal of Obamacare made them "look like fools."
In his latest tweetstorm, Trump called for the end of the filibuster rule that requires 60 votes, saying it is "very outdated." But abolishing the filibuster wouldn't have allowed Republicans to pass the proposed health care legislation, anyway.
