I hope it fails.



List some things that make it horrible.


I don't even think you can read the full bill anywhere yet, I haven't read it.

People need to remember half the gop is still full of liberals. The neo cons. Thats why its appeared as a uni party. For a long time you were given a choice between a liberal and liberal with an R.

Trump should publicly announce that today, he's courting replacement candidates for Chip Roy's seat. Send someone from the administration to Texas and have them open an office. Begin the process of replacing him in earnest with every R in Texas willing to help.

If Ralph Norman is the same, do the same thing in SC.

Have you ever thought about them circling the wagons for a good, conservative bill, not a complete piece of shite like this one?

As always, you people are attacking the ones opposing things that suck, instead of attacking the ones supporting it.

So court replacements for the guy opposing a terrible bill and trying to uphold conservatism...

What a shock. It's completely typical that your bitch arse shows up white knighting for Chip Roy.

Did you check in on what the Lincoln Project thinks of the bill?

It is a pretty shitty bill, and it won't pass the Senate as is regardless.

It keeps all of the Green New Deal in place

It doubles SALT cap

It raises the debt anywhere from 3.3 to 5.2 Trillion in the short term and drastically more over the course of a decade

Doesn't touch Medicaid or Obamacare stuff


Sometimes concessions need to be made, its part of working Washington. But those things are not good no matter how you slice it

If they can remove some tax credits, they should remove them all. Especially co2 sequestration.

This would have taken a year to do individual bills. The only reason they are limping everything into one bill is because it will be quick

So Johnson can only lose one more, right?

Massie is already and automatic NO, so I believe the GOP doesn't have the votes. They need 219 to pass, and the House is at 219 without Massie.
