CAVUTO: "All right. The president tweeting again. This one had a little bit more impact here. The president referring to the debate back and forth on the GOP healthcare plan. I can swear this is what my next guest said what he was here a few days ago. Talking about Kentucky Republican senator, Rand Paul. Senator, good to have you. I imagine he’s heeding that call.

PAUL: "You know, he and I discussed it. He’s open to it. We’re add an impasse. The bill is not repealing ObamaCare but being sweetened up with federal spending. That’s in context of a $500 bill definite it is. Next year the predictions are that we’ll have a trillion deficit. I can’t see loading up a Republican repeal bill with all kinds of goodies. A super fund for insurance bail why its, super fund for opiate abuse. A super fund for anybody that wants in the bill. If we have a clean repeal and have a separate spending bill that for the big government Republicans that think spending is the answer, put it on a bill that the Democrats like and they can work with the Democrats on the big government aspect to it. Let’s have a repeal bill because that’s what we promised."
