Behind New Obamacare Repeal Vote: ‘Furious’ G.O.P. Donors
Party operatives say it is hard to assess the full impact of Mr. Trump’s summer attacks on Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, the majority

Senator Charles E. Grassley of Iowa, who has been deeply involved in health policy for years, told reporters back home
that he could count 10 reasons the new health proposal should not reach the floor, but that Republicans needed to press ahead regardless in order to fulfill their longstanding promise to replace and repeal President Barack Obama’s Affordable Care Act.
Strange would further rattle his colleagues and be seen as a major rebuke to Mr. McConnell
and the Republican establishment in Washington for their failure to deliver on health care repeal and other issues
