What did Tom Carper get for all his prodigious “bipartisanship bridge building” and what how have his Republican friends across the aisle reciprocated all of his overtures of friendship?
I’m seriously asking because the reconciled House and Senate tax bill is even MORE rapaciously Republican than the original version.
House and Senate Republican leaders have reached an agreement in principle that would lower the corporate tax rate to 21 percent beginning in 2018, several people briefed on the plan said, a central component of the $1.5 trillion tax plan they hope to vote into law by next week.
The agreement would also lower the top tax rate for families and individuals from 39.6 percent to at least 37 percent, a change that would deliver a major tax cut for upper-income households.
“We are so close right now,” President Trump said at the White House. “So close.”
Nice work Senator. Let me know when you get tired of all your “friends” on the GOP side pissing on your head.
