(THREAD) The tax bill that just passed the Senate is terrible policy. But Republicans are right that passing it is better for them politically than failure. Here's why:

No offense-at least not much, but we already knew this.
-
Maybe you did. But I've seen many arguments that Republicans are digging their own political grave by passing this bill. And I don't think that's accurate.
-
I agree w you. There is political expediency for them. Less damage right away until Dems can get in and change things, etc. If atempers figure it out, they’ll most likely blame it on dems around at the time.
-
Dems will get in when it's all starting to fall apart & they will be blamed....as usual.
-
Quite possibly.
-
Hopefully our new resistance will prevent that this time.

Great perspective. So much for the"representation" part of those position descriptions.
