Should Trump let Obamacare Fail?

Trump stated the other day that they should just let Obamacare fail, then maybe Democrats will come to the table.

The question is, should they let Obamacare fail?

That is a question you really shouldn't ask of Trump, more so it should be the members of Congress.  Obamacare is failing and everyone already knows it.  Just look at the skyrocketing costs and the number of Insurance Companies dropping out of the whole thing.  It will only be a short time and it will either bankrupt the United States or will not be affordable to anyone.

The Democrats have thus far refused to get into the Health Care discussion.  They want to force the Republicans to pass something all on their own so they can go out and use it as a political tool for election season.  The same way it was used against them.  The Democrats know that they made a huge mistake by ramming the bill down the throats of the GOP and the American People without the help of the GOP.  It cost them the House and Senate in very short order.  Now they are looking and counting on the American People to be stupid.  They know that Obamacare is failing system that they own.  They are counting on the GOP to pass something without their support.  That way they can blame them and win back the House and Senate.  Thus far they have not been interested in actually helping.  They know that if they come to the table and sit down and work on a bipartisan bill that actually helps the American People they can't use it against the GOP. 

The problem for both sides is this, the GOP has evolved into multiple facets of the party.  So they are not going to pass a bill without help from the Democrats.  It is actually a wonderful thing for the American People.  The bill should be a piece of work that covers people from all over, and to do that the Democrats have to come to the table.  So the Democrats want to sit back and make the GOP go on their own, but the GOP is to diverse to pass without the help of the Dems.

In the face of this what should happen?  I believe that yes, Obamacare should fail.  The people who passed that bill should own it right to the final day.  They don't want to help fix it, they want to be political.  Own your mess and come to the table and do what you should do!  Work with the other side and put the American People ahead of your sorry butts.
