Well they need it to pass the bill by reconciliation. I am wondering if they can actually get the CBO score before the Senate recess.

Can they just somehow lie or break decorum to get around it somehow since the only one who cares about that are Dems?

I bet the number of opposing GOP Senators to this is exactly the same as the number they can spare and have Pence be the tie breaker, and I bet every single one is in an at risk district.

lmao what the gently caress

I'm throwing a concert headlined by U2, LCD Soundsystem, Metallica and Jay-Z/Kanye/Beyonce. BUT! If too many people show up it will be cancelled half an hour before it starts. This will surely not piss anyone off.

it's not going to matter either because it'll say it kills 36 million people this time and the party will vote lockstep save for 1 token abstention

That one token abstain is actually just Rubio not showing up

gently caress, i dunno

maybe when millions of people are dead from preventable causes/natural disasters/rising waters/military adventurism?

starvation might do it

americans are p lazy and fat, so i reckon we'll take a lot of poo poo, too much for it to matter
i'd say when empathy becomes necessary again so all of those happening at the same time pretty much

they actually ran a profile on most of these and most of the callers and town hall participants are actually verified republican voters

This poo poo is crazy

I really don't want it to pass but I'm also kind of ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ if it gets railroaded through by Republicans because it's going to fuuuuuuuuuuuuck enough people that it just might have electoral consequences.

Yep, in states where you have to register by party they checked at the door against your ID lol

Then when they complained, the Rep called them all paid protesters working for Soros and that they hate America

Once this and the tax cuts pass, 100% of the GOP's time is going to be spent rolling out NC-style massive and obvious voter suppression efforts in the run up to 2018. The worst will come just before the election so that they cannot be challenged until after the fact, which suits them just fine

Every single person who still allies themselves with the Republican party must be made to answer for this, we have no allies and they do not work for anybody but themselves and their donors

I don't think so. I was under the impression that reconciliation is actually codified in law and not just rules that can be changed by the senate.

But, someone else may know better.
