Republican Sens. Mike Lee and Jerry Moran announced late Monday that they would oppose their party's health care bill, effectively stopping the yearslong effort to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act. On Tuesday morning, President Trump tweeted, "As I have always said, let ObamaCare fail and then come together and do a great healthcare plan. Stay tuned!"
