  1. How is it the Republicans had more than enough votes to pass Tax Reform, without a single Democrat vote, but now they're claiming the Democrats are playing politics when the Republicans have the exact same Majority they had two months ago?

  2. 888strummer Strange the Senate Republicans only needed a simple majority of 51 for the tax reform bill, and they didn't need a single Democrat vote to pass it. Why don't you tell me what the difference is?

  3. David Mitchell That's awfully weird, the Senate Republicans only needed a simple majority of 51 for the tax reform bill but in this case you claim they need a supermajority of 60... why is that when there is no debate or filibuster.

  4. 888strummer The Senate only need a supermajority [60 votes] to end debate or filibuster. There is neither in this instance. The Republicans have all the votes they need, a simple majority of [51] the problem is Trump cannot you not his own party. So the Republicans blame the Democrats for their own shortcomings.

  5. 888strummer Of course you don't care, that's why you have no idea how the procedures of the House and Senate actually work. And by the way, Trump had nothing to do with the economy in his first year. You can't point to a single measure that he's actually Implement it's taken effect yet.
