Sure they will—but Trump didn’t need to give them a ready handle to grab onto.

More critically, the GOPe is undermining both the tax cuts and the repeal of Obamacare. The tax cuts (and immigration issues and the SC nominee) are of the highest priority for Trump reviving the economy and gaining favorability with the electorate.

Drudge highlighted this story overnight, but it’s not getting any attention here. The GOPe is now claiming that tax cuts will have to wait until the spring of 2018! That is too late to have any effect on the economy in time for the 2018 election, after which, at this rate, the GOPe will be able to go back to blaming split rule in Congress as their excuse for doing nothing!

I don’t always believe everything on yahoo. That said, the Senate GOP is going to be problematic.
