You don't think he can put Dems in a tough spot here? Like if his people move the new healthcare plan closer to single payer, that is what Dems want. Hard to say no to their own policy ideas. On the other hand, it would be a disaster for Dems politically.
You may say he's incapable, but I guarantee you he has no ideological objections to single payer, and all that is happening right now is he's yelling at his people to come up with something that will give him a win. He doesn't care if his win comes from 35 Republicans and 190 Democrats.
