 Tax reform bill last chance for Republican party |
UncleJD |
| If they pass this bill before Christmas, they may actually hold on to their majority. If they don't, it will all be over even before November since they will not be able to pass one single major piece of legislation. I'm not very optimistic that they will pass it since I believe the RINO faction of the party, who were nearly falling in line on this bill, now, after the disaster in Alabama, have a clear path back to their status-quo that they love so much. |

McCain and the two ladies from the North East are the key |

The kind that Alabama should have run, huh?

Of course you must understand that it is because of Trump's tweets that these three might not support the bill.

Right, the GOP still has the majority. So back to the 3-4
0 was from Bama.
Even though Roy tried to run to drain the swamp and fight the establishment, he lost the seat |

The Alabama GOP nominated him, then they failed to get him elected.
That adds up to -1 no matter how you look at it. |
