Julie Pace: ‘Constant Shifting’ from Trump ‘Is Hugely Unhelpful’ to the GOP on Health Care

‘They want to put a bill on his desk and have that bill signed’

RUSH EXCERPT:
PACE: "It kind of depends what day you ask them that question. There have been some days recently where they have been pretty down on this, where they can’t exactly see how they’re going to get back, particularly with Senator McCain being out at the — a crucial vote for this. Look, they planned to spend the next couple of days trying to see if there’s a way through here, trying to see if repeal and replace could get the votes, trying to see if repeal only could get the votes. When you talk to Republicans, though, they — mixed messages. The constant shifting from the president, sometimes within the same day, is hugely unhelpful because Republicans also want to move forward on this. They want to put a bill on his desk and have that bill signed. But it’s really unclear day to day what bill the president actually wants to sign."
