Trump&#8230; They\u2019re trying to really hurry this health care revival, and I\u2019m gonna tell you something about that. There\u2019s a story in the Stack here says that Pence has taken over the directorship &#8212; the energy behind, the movement &#8212; of the health care bill from Paul Ryan. Nothing conspiratorial about it. It\u2019s just that Pence has now adopted it, taken over, and is the force behind it.<\/p>\n<p>I think is that the vice president has been involved in this at a very high level from the get-go, and I don\u2019t think it\u2019s anything different that he\u2019s involved in it now. It\u2019s good that Pence is involved in this. So don\u2019t anybody misunderstand. But they\u2019re trying to push this and get something done here quickly, and Trump is deriding them for only working eight days in April and is trying to push them into a little bit more effort than eight days.

But the point of this story is that Trump is goosing \u2019em.\u00a0 The other part of the story is that Ryan is taking a backseat to Pence in this latest Obamacare effort. I don\u2019t think that\u2019s anything really new.\u00a0 I think Mike Pence is one of the prime movers and shakers on this.\u00a0 I think he\u2019s been actively involved.\u00a0 And if that\u2019s the case, you can be fairly confident&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>I mean, Mike Pence?
