Trump and the GOP had a race to see who could be first to surrender to the Dems and Trump won! By being first, Trump has enhanced his negotiating power to dictate the terms of surrender on the upcoming tax reform debate. I can see his point, why drag out the inevitable since the Dems run Congress, so let’s cut to the chase.
I don’t really blame him. The democrats were going to stall, and the GOP too, and in the end make him look bad, so he undercut them. The man, like all of us, is tired of delay and inactivity.
