The good news at least as of tonight is that RyanCARE appears to be dead in the water in the House. If it makes it out of the House, it will not get 51 votes to pass anyway. The bad news is that none other than slimy Ezekiel Emanuel (aka Rahm’s brother) is now advising Trump on RyanCARE. This comes just days after Fox News hired Emanuel to try and push RyanCARE on the gullible people who still watch it.
