    Big potential problem for GOP leaders: Susan Collins disputes Cornyn’s claim that they have her support for the GOP tax bill. (They see her as their 50th and pivotal vote) “I can’t imagine why Senator Cornyn is speaking for me,” she told me. “I speak for myself”

        They can afford to lose one. Johnson, McCain on board, others will fall in line even if Collins doesn't.

        Flake and Corker aren’t onboard yet, are they?

        Corker seemed to be heading that way, but you're right that's not 100%. Flake I don't know. He's right to criticize Trump, but otherwise he's a standard-issue tax-cutter (as defined by GOP).

        The GOP will pass it while the MSM are talking about Flynn flipping (which IS pretty fucking awesome). Still..... #CallYourSenatorsNOWPlease

        True - but Flake never said he wasn't a standard-issue very conservative Republican (with all that entails). All he's done is state the obvious about Trump as a horrible person espousing horrible hate. Tax cuts for the rich - pure GOP winning, so Flake's for it.

        So it might end up undone because of some good old fashioned misogyny and that's, pretty fitting actually.

        @SenatorCollins You have a distinguished history of thoughtful leadership. Do not sacrifice it for this travesty of a process and a bill that will have decades of negative consequences for Mainers and the rest of America.

        Then please say you don’t support taking chemo away from senior Medicare patients and gutting Medicaid. The double standard deduction is a scam you’re taking away personal exemptions. Your giving the middle class nothing compared to billionaires who will not hire.
