'We have no interest in playing identity politics,' a GOP aide says(CNN) CNN host Erin Burnett was incredulous Friday after the Senate announced the 13 Republican senators who will be responsible for crafting President Trump's new health care plan -- and of them are white men. "Thirteen men are deciding the future of American health care tonight," Burnett announced on her show, "'OutFront." "They are the Republican senators who will take the House bill passed (Thursday) and craft a Senate version called Trumpcare. The CNN host then showed pictures of the 13 senators, who include Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, Finance Chairman Orrin Hatch and Ted Cruz of Texas. "There they are," Burnett announced, before launching into a scathing critique.
