Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, Paul Ryan is taking Democrats completely out of the equation to getting to a yes on the Obamacare replacement bill. The House Speaker appeared on CBS’ This Morning saying “I’m trying to get this bill passed…Nancy (Pelosi) and I see things very, very differently. I don’t want government running health care. I don’t want that to happen. I want a patient-centered system.”

The Speaker’s views appear to be contrary to the views of the White House considering the comments of the White House Press Secretary, Sean Spicer. Earlier this week, the Press Secretary expressed President Trump’s willingness to work with Democrats on the bill if Republicans fail to come together on the bill.
“If this Republican Congress allows the perfect to become the enemy of the good, I worry we’ll push the President to working with Democrats. He’s been suggesting that much,” Spicer said.
