Trump whines about filibuster rule after Obamacare repeal goes down in flames

President Donald Trump complained about Senate rules after the Obamacare repeal failed to pass hours earlier.

The measure failed 49-51 after three Republican senators -- Susan Collins, John McCain and Lisa Murkowski -- broke with their party, and Trump called for an end to the filibuster rule to pass it later.

"If Republicans are going to pass great future legislation in the Senate, they must immediately go to a 51 vote majority, not senseless 60," Trump tweeted shortly before 10 a.m.

"Even though parts of healthcare could pass at 51, some really good things need 60. So many great future bills & budgets need 60 votes," he added a few minutes later.
