Another reason, other then Flynn flipping, that Trump will be gone soon...

[Kablooie]

Once the Republicans pass their tax plan they will be guaranteed massive campaign donations from the, soon to be even wealthier, 1%.

Their work will be done so they won't have to keep protecting Trump.
They will want to decimate him as quickly as possible so as to have time to recover before spending their humongous budgets to win their 2018 elections.

The rest of their agenda will simply be to insure all new laws protect the wealthy and continue to shovel more of our savings into the pockets of the obscenely rich.

A simple philosophy and a lucrative one.

1. If the tax plan goes through

I think they will be screwed regardless. The damage done will be too severe for most of them to remain in power during the 2018 races. Their constituents will vote them the hell out.

3. They can all get cushy lobbiests jobs after this.

And be set for life hob bobbing with their rich compadres.... Wait, they are Republicans... Rich Aryan brothers.

5. Maybe. But it's best to never underestimate the stupidity of the american electorate.

They voted for a well-known con-man because he "tells it like it is".

7. Unfortunately, most will not realize how bad the tax plan is until 2019 and after.

11. +1

16. It depends on when the "cuts" go into effect.

I don't think they have enough time for it to go into effect in 2018

[Calista241]

17. I dont think so.

If Unemployment is still at 4.5% or less, economic growth next year is 3%+, they’ll probably be able to make a decent case for re-election, and it’s all thanks to Obama’s economic recovery.

It’s going to take longer for tax plans to be implemented and have an effect on the economy.

2. Fuck them and their tax plan. nt

[Volaris]

4. I'm not sure it will pass; they need it done by this friday, right?

If it fails (and they can only afford to lose 2?), thats the entirety of their agenda FAILED...and then it's only 6 weeks till its time to defend that failure to the voting public. And it's not like Donald is gonna start behaving himself for the sake of their majority so....

6. I was on Congressional lines over an hour last night

talking to my senators to vote NO. Many other constituents are doing the same, but it needs to be hard driven now. There are so many talking points, I had to make a list not to miss any. Rachel parroted most of them last night.

It's seriously desperation time.

12. Ours would sell his mother and praise God for his guidance.

[Kablooie]

9. I expect Republicans to ignore constituents on this because it's

TAXES!!

If there was ever a wet dream for Republicans it's this.
It will seem to stall until the last minute then it will pass.

[oberliner]

8. Trump is not going anywhere

[Hortensis]

13. Agree. No time soon. He's still too powerful.

Courtesy of Republican voters, he is still head of that party. And the 2018 midterms are coming up fast, and all observers say those will be all about turnout. (Except those more focused on election tampering, of course.)

[oberliner]

14. Let's hope for some major sweeping electoral victories in 2018

That's what we've got to focus our attention on, in my opinion.

[Hortensis]

15. Yes. +10,000.
