'There is a lot of angst about this whole health care bulls*** we are dealing with,' said one Republican congressman who asked to remain anonymous. 'But you aren't going to hear members say 'WTF Mr. President, what the hell did you do that for?''

Instead, President Donald Trump strolled into the Senate Republican's lunch last Tuesday reinvigorated by the end of special counsel Robert Mueller's probe and with a surprise announcement to make: He wanted to put health care at the top of the GOP agenda.It was a declaration that elicited more than a few snide grumbles from lawmakers and aides. Health care? They wondered. Really?The last time they tried that it, ended in disaster.

Republican lawmakers describe a President that behind the scenes is like a Maitre D' at your favorite restaurant, a willing tour guide and listener, but also a force of personality who commands meetings and has the propensity to talk endlessly about everything and nothing.

Again they are asked to put America first before this out of control POTUS.

Like CNN is going to keep anything a republican said confidential. lol

Why the hell not?

Gutless Old Pensioners

Fake News. This feckless piece of dog crap shld not be quoted if he or she doesn't want the name revealed.

He likes you “Trump “ if he likes you and don’t cross him but if you do God help you he and his machine will destroy you !

Republicans are such cowards. They all hate Trump, but none of them have the courage to stand up to him. They fear losing republican vote, and most of all, republican money.

Puppet master pulling the strings. There to afraid to speak up.

Stop cowering to Trump and stand up for whats right.

Sorry I see trump as incompetent unethical unqualified cruel propaganda conspiracy theories pusher trumppenceresign

Shame he's not acceptable to the right people. None of them appear to be armed.

Party over country

CNN FAKE NEWS NO COLLUSION

As he notes, Of course you won’t hear any GOP say “WTF Mr. President, what the hell did you do that for?' Because SycophantGOP RuseRepublicans tataCharacter MondayMorning

April’s fool ya’lls!

It's very unusual and surprising to see a positive article about President Trump on CNN.

President Trump has been doing all the right moves for America and the American people! President Trump wants to have the' best' coverage for 'all' Americans ! Even those with preexisting conditions dont belive the 'left' and there 'lying' leftist' 'activist' 'networks!

realDonaldTrump Isn’t this the crux of most of the country’s problems- that no Republican congressman will say, “WTF, Don?”

I’m sure this happens a lot.

Oh I get it. I get it.

Well when ur trying to make money from the Whitehouse and they're just lining up to kiss ur mafia ring to be allowed to do business, ya gotta keep the doors open and the cops away.

Thank you Mr. Trump for making fools of your entire Party. This will save lots of time and money for The DNC in 2020.

WTF liar in chief.

You want to fix health care put Congress and the Senate on Obama care and make them pay for it out of their own pockets .

That's because Trump didn't do anything-the Governments before him did; but i wouldn't expenct fakenews CNN to understand that. CNNsucks

Cnn is this the new Russia COLLUSION lies

First and foremost, if you don't have enough guts to tell the President what you just told the media, then sit down until you grow a pair to tell it to Trump's face.

Reputincans like to remain anonymous,but they can’t hide

That’s a shame he has to be anonymous to voice his own opinion! Actually it is gutless and a characteristic of the GOP these days!

Either speak up or shut the eff up

More fake news

My question is republicans have been campaigning on repealing ACA for 8 years. And they say they haven’t come up with a plan yet? How shocking.

Fake news

This is a good thing. Trump is pulling his party down with himself. They are just fine with that. Dems don't need to do anything other than stop infighting. GOP is falling hard. Just get out of it's way.

Because he isn’t a typical politician. That’s why, Mr Anonymous.

Socialized medicine like about 50 other programs are best run by government for every person. Left to the healthcare industry, they will look to bankrupt you for their shareholders. Sad.

Can you imagine what would happen if the Republican members of Congress did their job of putting country over party and actually stood up to Trump and his bullshit? In order for that to happen though, a lot of them would have to ask Trump for their balls back. MondayMorning

Stop peddling misleading bs.

More unnamed sources. A Democrat who wanted to remain anonymous told me that Kamalla Harris likes to eat her boogers. *eye roll*

You guys need to deal with it just like every industrialized nation thank god I live in Canada I would be dead if I lived there

CNN can provide a public service here. Please ask this question of every politician - Why should the federal government be involved with health care?

Why not?

Obamacare was awful.

More made up bs from

I've got another 'word' I could use in place of accessible...

That is the one Republican congressman that isn't interested in doing what he was elected to do. Get off your tails and govern for God's sake.

If he's so damn accessible, then why are they afraid of upsetting him?

Congressman don't get to remain anonymous. It's the first problem we need to deal with: the increasing lack of a public record and a public legislative process.

Another unforced error by realDonaldTrump. He was having a good week because of the Mueller Report and be voluntary ruins it by proposing to take health care away from 20 million Americans.

Stop being chicken shits and speak up. Stop putting party over country! Speak out.

Unnamed sources are usually fake sources.

Lets force people to drive a Ford and fine them if they don't....that's Obamacare in a nutshell.

This is probably the dumbest thing il ever read in my life... and of course it’s comes from CNN

That makes y’all cowards

Intel Republicans dismiss Mueller's intelligence findings before seeing themHouse Intelligence Committee Republicans concluded a year ago that the Trump campaign exercised “poor judgment,” “took ill-considered actions” and at times acted “inconsistent with U.S. national security interests' There was collusion between the Hillary Clinton campaign and Russia though. We know that for a fact Idk if the report has anything worth reading. Maybe not.

Irrelevant, the US president took $500 million from the Chinese gov’t to allow ZTE to do business in the US again and told his idiot base that he is draining the swamp and that he is a patriot.
