My understanding is that as a practical matter passing TPA means exactly that: the supposedly yet-to-be negotiated deals will pass.
Winner winner, chicken dinner. 51 votes in the Senate and 218 in House is a breeze for Team K Street. Obama has 42 votes from the black caucus in his back pocket if needs them. He’d prefer of course to have the GOP carry his water and drive a wedge through their base.
That is the part that is MOST curious.
WHy would the GOP support a bill that they have
to pass to read?
Did they not learn from ObamaCARE?
WHy would the GOP be so utterly stupid as to defy their
voters, take the blame for this bill,
and at the same time increase the probability
of the DESERVED death of their lying party,
while making further erosion of the US Constitution?
