Budget Director Mulvaney: 'Tax Reform...That's What's Going to Save the Country'
CNS News ^ | 09/13/2017 | Susan Jones

President Trump is launching an all-out effort to move tax reform through Congress, quickly.

In two tweets on Wednesday morning, President Trump urged Congress to get going: "The approval process for the biggest Tax Cut & Tax Reform package in the history of our country will soon begin. Move fast Congress!" the president wrote.

And then: "With Irma and Harvey devastation, Tax Cuts and Tax Reform is needed more than ever before. Go Congress, go!"

The president wants the biggest corporate tax cut he can get, and it doesn’t have to be revenue-neutral, White House Budget Director Mick Mulvaney told Fox News Tuesday evening.

"I know the president keeps pushing Congress to go faster. He's frustrated how slow it’s been going, and he’s pushing them just today to try and get the Ways and Means Committee, the Finance Committee in the Senate, to go faster.'

Supposedly, The GOP can’t do tax reform yet because they haven’t done a budget. After being on vacation most of last month. Lazy bums.

Paul Ryan, just trying to coast until the next election.

He doesn’t have his hand up. He doesn’t want to be called upon. He just wants to bury his head in the sand, and make it through the next election.

Maybe do a little work out now and then.

Ryan just wishes Trump would go away. Ryan really wanted Hillary to win, because then Ryan could coast to the next election.

oooh... Poor Ryan, now he has to man up. Good luck with that!

Well if you like what the Republicans in Congress came up with to replace Obamacare then you'll love what they do to the tax code.

Trump has got to stop saying, "Come on, Congress. Pass something so I can sign" and start saying, "Here, Congress. This is what I want you to pass. Get it done so I can sign it." Otherwise Congress will screw it up.

Paul Ryan want a snowflake disgrace!

“Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell Launch 200-Day Plan on Trump Agenda”

http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2017/01/28/paul-ryan-mitch-mcconnell-launch-bold-and-aggressive-200-day-plan-to-implement-trump-agenda/

Speaker Paul D. Ryan (R.-Wis.) and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R.-Ky.) told reporters Thursday at the Republicans’ policy retreat here that they are committed to a 200-day program to implement the agenda of President Donald J. Trump.

Ryan said no one should be shocked by the ambitious agenda.

“We ran on these issue in 2016, so there’s no surprises here and the president agrees to this agenda,” he said.

Paul Ryan FAILED!!
Paul Ryan is a snowflake JOKE!

Here is the release from DCCC on Paul Ryan’s Spectacular Failure. {It is a .pdf}

DCCC is the official campaign arm of the Democrats in the House.

They did a great job listing in detail Paul Ryan’s Spectacular Failure.

This is Paul Ryan in action, er, or, inaction!!

“Dem campaign arm mocks GOP for ‘spectacular failure’ of 200-day agenda”

http://thehill.com/homenews/house/345580-dem-campaign-arm-mocks-gop-for-spectacular-failure-of-200-day-agenda

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) in a memo mocked the House Republicans’ “spectacular failure” to accomplish their 200-day agenda.

“After 100 days of unified control of Washington, there were already early signs of Speaker Ryan’s out-of-touch priorities and failed leadership,” said the memo, from Tyler Law, DCCC national press secretary.

“At the time, the Speaker argued repeatedly that a 200-day evaluation was more appropriate.”

But the DCCC argued that Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) has “achieved almost nothing since” President Trump assumed office.

I agree. Them passing something never makes it better. If they actually pass anything it’s guaranteed that the middle class gets screwed and more is given to the moochers.

Instead of relying on Congress, why doesn’t the President release his own detailed plan and challenge Congress go passs it? Leading from behind didn’t work on healthcare and it is likely to fail as a strategy for tax reform as well.

Tax reform will save the country?

I’d lean more toward Jesus alone as our only hope.

Nope, reforming taxes will not save this country.

This country does not have a problem collecting taxes. This country does have a national SPENDING problem. If you want to save this country, that is what you have to fix.

I know “pro growth”. In other words give tax cuts to the rino establishment who are trying to give us open Borders and who are working “with the Democrats to get things done.” Some how this is the only “conservative” reform the support.Let them buy some media and end this amnesty BS and stop spending so much money and I may give them some tax breaks, but, not until then. I am at the point where I am ready to raise taxes on them!

That (spending) horse has left the barn, the county and the state.

All the swamp creatures can do at this point is point fingers at each other.

Nothing of the supposedly Trump agenda will get done. No wall. No tax reform. No 0bamacare repeal. No MAGA.

BUT...we get DACA being made law, the debt cieling raised again and the supposedly peoples president cutting deals with the Democrats.

Winning....not so much.
