      Look, if there was *one thing* that Republicans were going to accomplish once they got total control, it was to cut taxes on their wealthy donors.

      It is obscene and corrupt that members of congress can vote themselves tax cuts without disclosing their profits:https://twitter.com/jamisonfoser/status/935596845182492672 …

      Whether they’ve consciously thought about it or not, it’s highly unlikely it doesn’t affect their perspective. https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/republicans-tax-cuts-congress_us_5a33fc64e4b040881bea2f81?oss …pic.twitter.com/rGMtbqgoNH

      I think an underappreciated attack line in 2018 will be the *personal* benefit many GOP members are going to get from this tax bill. "Voted to cut his own taxes by $75,000 while hiking taxes on middle class families" etc

      I’ve been banging this drum for many years, often alone. The very bad news for Republicans is it feels like the damn has burst.
