Democrats Erupt In Anger After ‘Corrupt’ Tax Bill Passes The Senate

**SNIP**

Many Democratic senators said they weren’t able to read the entire draft of the tax rewrite, which contained handwritten notes and crossed-out pages, ahead of the vote. Others promised they would keep fighting against the bill, which still needs to be reconciled with the House version before it becomes law.

"This Congress doesn’t work for working families,” Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) tweeted early Saturday morning. “It works for corporate lobbyists & campaign donors in backroom deals & 1:30 a.m. votes.”

She added, “This corruption is hollowing out America’s middle class & tearing down our democracy.”

Didn’t seem to bother them for ObamaCare, where they had to pass it to see what was in it.

The only thing ‘hallowing out’ the middle class is getting bent over and screwed by Democrats to form the lower socioeconomic class they so desperately need.

Hey, Senator Warren, you disgusting putrid puss bag - here’s a bottle of douche. You can either nurse it, or guzzle it down. Either way, I don’t much care.

What difference does it make? None of the America-hating commies was going to vote for it anyway.

This is nothing but bloviating by the corrupt Dem senators. So they couldn’t read the bill before they voted, they wanted no part in drafting it and weren’t going to vote for it anyway, so what is the big deal. It’s just the samo-o-same-o for the party that has self identified as the resistance. Their leaders say do this and they do, they say don’t do that and they don’t. Talk about a group of people who can’t think for themselves.
