Republican leaders have evidently decided that most Americans deserve more of what they’ve had over the past few decades — more income stagnation and more inequality. Polls have repeatedly shown that most Americans disagree, but Congress is forging ahead anyway. It’s an affront that deserves to be a defining issue in next year’s midterm campaigns.

In other words the vote the senate holds will be meaningless if the house isn’t on board and we all know they aren’t and never will be

Drain the swamp fire all Republicans starting with Mitch McConnell! Tax reform seriously which will increase our national debt and to offset this they go for cutting Social Security, Medicare, or Medicaid, see how much they care about you deplorable’s. And I do believe they gave himself something in this tax reform. They give Sosa security at two percent increase and then offset it by upping the premiums for Medicare, so much for cost-of-living right. Republicans want to do away with so security medicare and Medicaid that’s your primary goal and that’s what they’re setting us up for and a fascist nation.

Her seat isn’t up until 2020, but after this she should be a prime target for Democrats. I think that’s the real reason she opted not to run for governor next year. The climate is terrible for any Republican

Proving, as always, that she’s a liar and a con-artist just like the rest of the GOP.

“But the vote on the continuing resolution to fund the government and the bills McConnell plans to attach to it, won’t happen until later in the week, making her promise Monday to support the tax bill a giant leap of faith sewage sandwich, served with a side of shiv, and garnished with toxic waste for Americans stupid enough not to have been birthed from a billionaire womb.”

Fixed.

The hard right in the house are corrupt phonys. Dangle tax cuts in front of them and most will vote over their objection to ‘bailouts’ in a heartbeat.

Collins: But he PROMISED!!!
Corker: How did THAT get in there? I’m shocked!
Flake: I hope you didn’t forget I’m still a Republican.
