Whatever their reasons, I am sincerely grateful for their apathy

I can only imagine the discussions we'd be having if HRC were POTUS, instead of bitching about how slowly tax reform was progressing, we'd all be grabbing our ankles in anticipation of how to pay for the "free everything" she was promising on the backs of the taxpayers.

If this circus continues they'll be a backlash that could affect some Midterm seats. It's only been 3 weeks so let's see what happens...This Flynn/Russia thing could be a serious problem for the administration along with what's happening at some town hall meetings, congressman canceling and sneaking out the back door to avoid their constitutes. There's something in the air.

.....WTF were most of these Bernie fucktards thinking when they either stayed home or refused to vote for HRC on November 8th.

'How bad can it get? We can ride it out until we get our way!'  Well, now they are finding out how bad it can get, and they can see where it can get much worse. And, they are no longer so certain that they can ride it out for all that long. ;)

...according to Speaker Ryan, they are not going to even take up tax reform until they dispose of the GOP’s Obamacare “repeal and replace” pledge, but even Trump now says that may take until next year. Likewise, any corporate tax reform that does happen will be done on a roughly deficit neutral basis, meaning that the average effective corporate tax rate is not going to change much at all.  

Here is what one of the most outspoken fiscal responsibility champions in the House GOP had to say:
“You’re not going to be able to grow your way out of this one. It’s too big,” says Rep. Tom Cole (R., Okla.). He expresses worry about relying on rosy growth projections, through the use of so- called dynamic scoring, to assume tax cuts would stimulate the economy to materially offset upfront revenue losses. “I worry we’re so in love with dynamic scoring, and it never works out the way the tax gurus tell us it’s going to.”
