True. Sometimes (frequently) the use of Rino is a lazy way of using a perjorative with no thoughts about fundamental positions. Some are willing to sacrifice principles merely in order to get things done. Shabby way to uphold one’s integrity.

If leadership sells out conservative principles, it is they who are RINO.

conservative principles ? even President Reagan did deals. With the RINOS taxes will go up for everyone except perhaps for the wealthly blue state folks.

It should never have been one bill. Broken up and tiled right there could have been two bills both with a chance for reconciliation. Tax cuts, defense, deregulation, modest welfare reform, all could’ve passed. Next go-around could have handled the rest. Really bad tactics which have a few congress critters too much leverage.

Trump needs to weigh in biggly. But so far he seems to like spending big. He did his first term to. Trump for all his bombast doesn’t like war. Foreign or domestic.

No bill should be more than three pages long.

Little to no spending Cuts.
Johnson worked with “Pork Barrel” RINOS to craft this bill.
GOP Kicking the Spending Cuts down the road as always.
