Graham: ‘I Would Rather Politically Die than Prop Up ObamaCare Because It Can’t Be Saved’

‘We can get reform to a broken ObamaCare system’

EXCERPT:

GRAHAM: "Here’s what we have to decide. Is the House in a position to make changes for a two or three year period until we can replace ObamaCare with Graham-Cassidy. If they’re not in that mindset, then there’s nothing that Mitch McConnell can do. The President is in that mindset. The President is willing to continue the payments until we replace ObamaCare with Graham-Cassidy if he can get flexibility for the payments in the interim. Not throw good money after bad. Clearly Alexander Murray is not selling in the House. Can Senator Johnson working with House members come up with a better temporary deal? We’re talking about a temporary deal, whether there will be one or not, how much flexibility can you get for two or three years of CSR payments. Nobody on the Republican side is talking about propping up ObamaCare. I would rather politically die than prop up ObamaCare because it can’t be saved."
