I think we have a winner
It wasnāt Tom Delay who said that about drowning the government in a bathtub, it was Grover Norquist, and the quote was more like āI want us to shrink government to a size so small we could drown it in a bathtub.ā
As for Corker, leadership probably told him he didnāt have a āfree voteā this time because theyāre not sure Cochran and McCain will be back in time.
Corker and Rubio got the deals they wanted. Will similar deals be made when they finally get around to dealing with the thing in the White House? Or will they just act like nothing is happening? Iām beginning to think that this Tax Bill wonāt matter in the long run because the GOP will not prevent what is essentially a soft coup from going on until The Constitution is just a quaint historical document and nothing more, and we are governed by Putin through Trump. I will stop feeling this way if I see just one GOP senator step up and show substantial, not just verbal, opposition to whatās going on. Otherwise, I have no faith at all that they will do ANYTHING to stop him, even if Mueller can prove complete and overwhelming criminal wrongdoing.
Will there even be a next administration?
does " enterprising spirit " mean legislatively stealing from the actual producers
of wealth and sending it to those who started the thievery in the first place ?
Why? So much for a patriot is just another Republican who bows to the whims of corporate America and the wealthy. Or he seeking a job with a corporation after he leaves office . Didnāt he just resign a coward.
Exit stage right, Snagglepussy. you are a real hard ass right up to the final vote Then you fold like a Robert Hall suit.
Just wanted some attention?
Just as much of a liar, crook, con, corrupt as the rest of the Republican lawmakers.
He just wanted the spotlight for a while longer - gawd, they are all just as bad, corrupt as Trump. Every one of them!
How much money is he getting for his vote?
Well, we knew it that you will all follow suit and follow the dear leader no matter how much you hate him. Party before country.
As predicted, they all roll over. No surprise.
So, I posted this 22 hours agoā¦
Welp. Quite a dramatic shift in the last 22 hours it seems. Iām glad I have kept breathing
In other words, āAll my post Senate rightwing welfare job offers were drying up.ā
If you want live like a Republican vote Democrat. If you want to live like a Democrat, vote Republican.
Laurence OāDonnell just suggested that Corker (Foreign Relations Committee) may be hoping to get Secretary of State if Tillerson is booted. Thatās the best explanation Iāve heard for Corkerās sudden change on this bill.
I want media outlets to explain to us all the ways past tax cuts have made us domesticly more productive - ever
show us all the companies that hired thousands of middle class paying jobs in america due to tax cuts
Of course heās going to support it! The reason is perfectly clear! Heās going to primary trump in two years!
watch who he goes to work for next - youāll have his motive

Corker: For 2020, I have moderates and now I have Trump supporters and people think I am the only Fiscal Conservative in Amerikkka.
