I saw Senator Cornyn and he said Tax Reform was necessary, and that if overall rates were reduced, then current special deductions and credits could also be reduced to produce a revenue neutral result on a static scoring. He added that there wasn’t time to do this in the Debt Ceiling bill, so tax increases were off the table.

That stuff almost always works out to a revenue net plus. Sneaky devils.

That's exactly what he said but those facts won't stop people here from screaming "RINO" and calling for his political scalp.
