"...a number of conservative wins, including the elimination of essential health benefits"

[Miles Archer]

Meadows reported Thursday night that, while he was still leaning no, there are a number of conservative wins in the new legislation, including the elimination of “essential health benefits” that require insurers to cover basic health care services. There also were certain “assurances” that the president and his staff made that could persuade conservatives, he added, though he wouldn’t elaborate.

When Meadows was asked about Trump’s book, The Art of the Deal, and how walking away from a negotiation was textbook Trump, Meadows said that in order to get the best deal, “you always have to be ready to walk away from any negotiation.”

“Yeah, I read his book too,” Meadows said, acknowledging that “the bill has improved.”

What conservatives view as improvements, however, are clear losses for moderates. A large bloc of rank-and-file Republicans could flee from the bill, especially if it’s clear by Friday afternoon that Republicans, as is likely, don’t have the votes for passage.
