Rand Paul: Paul Ryan ‘Trying to Pull the Wool Over the Eyes of the President’

Sen. Rand Paul on Paul Ryan’s Obamacare Lite: Speaker ‘Trying to Pull the Wool Over the Eyes of the President’

In the interview, Paul accused Ryan of misleading President Donald Trump on the process and the level of support in the House for the bill that House GOP leadership—at Ryan’s direction—put forward this week.

Leadership knows this too, they say, as all the “hard no” votes have told the Speaker’s office or the whip teams they cannot vote for this bill. But Ryan is plowing forward, stating at a number of press conferences this week he is confident he will receive the 218 votes he needs to pass the bill—even though he clearly does not have them right now.

When asked what Ryan’s strategy is here, Paul told Breitbart News it makes no sense—and that he believes that the Speaker is deliberately misleading President Trump into thinking he has more support for this bill than he has, and that its fate is not in crisis.

Ryan: 'Growing Pains' to Blame for Disunity on Healthcare Bill

House Speaker Paul Ryan on Wednesday attributed the disagreement among Republicans over the party's plans to repeal and replace Obamacare as "typical growing pains."

In an appearance on Fox News' "Tucker Carlson Tonight," Ryan said ."

Ryan reiterated the position of GOP leadership the repeal and replacement will be made in three phases. The first phase introduced this week will use the budget reconciliation process, which requires only a 51-vote majority to pass the Senate. The other aspects will require 60 votes, and Republicans have only 52 members in the Senate.
