Tax bill passed and headed for the president’s desk

[Darth Omar]

(Reuters) - The Republican-controlled U.S. House of Representatives gave final approval on Wednesday to the biggest overhaul of the U.S. tax code in 30 years, sending a sweeping $1.5 trillion bill to President Donald Trump for his signature.

In sealing Trump's first major legislative victory, Republicans steamrolled opposition from Democrats to pass a bill that slashes taxes for corporations and the wealthy while giving mixed, temporary tax relief to middle-class Americans.

This is supposed to be reportage by Reuters but they couldn’t help but put the spin on it.

At any rate, the historic tax reform bill gets passed without a single democrat vote.

Political ramifications?

The over the top hyperbole is an indication of how bad democrats didn’t want this thing to pass.

For strictly political reasons.

In November 2018 when the economy is steaming along at 4, 5, percent or more and employers are begging folks to work the GOP will fail to capitalize on this act's success.

Leave it to the GOP to blow anything.

But for Trump. He’s pretty good at reminding voters of things lol.

If that's the case should we expect to see democrats who have their taxes cut returning their money to the federal treasury?

Nah, the minimum amount anyone other than the top gets cut won't make any difference, come next April when the average Joe sees his piece of the "biggest tax cut in history" is peanuts the realiy will sink in, as I noted, a gift for the Democrats

Will you hail Trump? Or just employ cognitive dissonance and pretend he had nothing to do with it?

Why not NeverTrumpers like yourself?

Can you really call yourself a NeverTrumper if you enjoy the fruits of his policies? How are you really different than any liberal here when it comes to Trump and his policies? Please explain

 

[Teflon Don]

It is more fun for met watching Never Trumper pussies like Cawacko cheer Trump's tax cuts than the liberals whine about it.

If it didn't pass, they were safe and could claim the people knew they were telling the truth.

Speaking of gifts, WHEN you get a greater return/lower liability, are you going to send whatever that amount is back to the government you believe needs more money?
