Conservatives please help explain:
Trump wanted a multi-part Healthcare Bill so repeal-replace could begin immediately and clear the path for tax reforms. They proposed starting with a plan capable of getting sure passage then dialing it in.
Conservatives led by the Freedom Caucus said no. They united with Dems to prevent action using the logic that they wanted everything in a one and done first bill ignoring the fact it would not pass. So Obamacare is still untouched except for Executive Orders.
Now it is time for a tax bill. The very same conservatives and Freedom Caucus now say it can’t be a one and done bill. Ensuring passage can only come if tax reform is multiple parts in separate bills to dial in later. So now they are delaying action on taxes.
The two big conservative campaign promises, dumping Obamacare and fixing taxes both halted by conservative opposition.
And they had to completely reverse their own logic so they could keep Congress from acting on promises.
Koch Brothers pledged up to $400 million to stop the Trump agenda. It seems to be paying off. They wanted to oppose him on health care, taxes and trade. So watch for conservatives to tie Trump up on trade bills in Congress too like they are on health care and tax reforms.
Even if they have to openly unite with Democrats again and completely reverse their own logic.
Conservative voters are sold out and most don’t even get it because their media isn’t telling them to wake up.
But they can all tell you about a baby giraffe, a doc who lost a plane seat and O’Reilly paying hush money but failing anyway.
This GOP Congress is a disaster and it is the conservatives making sure it stays dysfunctional. Constitutional Patriots are not represented in Congress.
