Trump will not be blamed if this whole thing collapses.

McTurtle and his lieutenants will.

Whaaa! Come on Marco, let’s see you stomp your feet and hold your breath until you turn blue. That’s what little bratty 4 year olds do when they start laying out their demands.

Snort, as if the RINO was ever going to vote for the GOP bill.

Rubio's problematic on immigration, but he's pretty level-headed (from a conservative standpoint) on other issues. The tax credit here is pretty much an attempt to shore up a segment of the GOP electorate, the white working poor, that will see little tax benefit from the bill unless the credit is passed. In closely-contested FL, it's a GOTV gesture that's essential for statewide GOP candidates to be re-elected.

I hope I'm wrong, but I expect that, without Rubio's change, this tax bill will cost the GOP its majority in both houses in 2018. Part of the reason Moore lost to Jones was probably because of this tax bill. From an optics standpoint, it looks like the GOP is in thrall to the globalist open borders plutocrats. GOP-leaning working class whites with household incomes under $40K will look at this bill and wonder why they even bother to show up at the polls. That's why the child tax credit refundable against payroll taxes is essential.
