EFFORT WAS 'FAKE'...
Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) pushed back on Friday against pressure from President Trump to vote for a last-ditch GOP effort in the Senate to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act, saying that he "won't be bribed or bullied."
In an early-morning tweet, Trump warned Paul that if he failed to vote for Sens. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) and Bill Cassidy's (R-La.) health-care proposal, he would forever be known as "'the Republican who saved ObamaCare.'"
But in a series of tweets following the president's post, Paul contended that the Graham-Cassidy measure does not fulfill the GOP's longtime promise to repeal the ACA, and ultimately keeps ObamaCare's taxes and spending.
Senator Rand Paul No one is more opposed to Obamacare than I am, and I've voted multiple times for repeal. The current bill isn't repeal.
