All I can think of is concessions made to get the BBB passed.
I assume that is why, but I wish President Trump would come out and say so.
Reagan did similarly. He signed into law the prohibition of civilians being able to buy machine guns made after 1986. That meant we could only buy machine guns made before he signed the bill (which was in a larger bill he needed to be passed).
That means that if I want a full auto UZI, I'll pay around $20,000 instead of the $1,600 I was going to pay in 1987. I always figured Reagan had a machine gun collection and wanted to make it huge before he left office. But I think it was nothing but a DC negotiation.
And a huge slap in the face of the 2nd, nonetheless.

Yes, this and that despicable QUADRUPLING of SALT deductions to $40,000. That is a massive subsidy of BLUE STATES’ taxation. Meanwhile, the NATIONAL DEBT CONTINUES TO RAPIDLY INFLATE.
All hail Linda Graham and his fellow neocon ZEEPERS!
