mind you, I’m not calling this poster a plant, but if he was a plant, this is exactly the sh*t a plant would be doing.

There is a lot of misinformation going around about this bill, some are even referencing pelosi's failed wish list. Who know what's actually in it. We'll find out over the next few days. We do know that the gopE wants basically the same things as the dems, and that Trump will compromise to get what he believes America needs.
