"They" are saying this because any tax reform that is passed has to be budget neutral according to the CBO (who has never been right). If the proposal is budget neutral then the plan can pass the senate with a simple majority (reconciliation). If the plan is not budget neutral as scored by the CBO then the tax proposal will require 60 votes in the senate (which would require 8 democrats to vote yes...that ain't happening).
Didn't know this. So basically, a democrat or republican president + supermajority in congress DOESN'T have a budget, but otherwise they do? Did the Democrat supermajority over those 2 years frick up that badly?
