As President Donald Trump's first year in office comes to a close, the assessments are rolling in.

Latest Attempt to Repeal the Obama Healthcare Act has Failed

The latest attempt to repeal the Obama-era healthcare act has failed after a dramatic night in the US Senate, reported BBC.

President Donald Trump said the three had "let the American people down".
