Something tells me Senator John McCain doesn’t appreciate the way Senator Mitch McConnell is running the Senate these days.
After calling for regular order on health care, that helped Democrats sink two Trumpcare zombies that would have destroyed America, McCain is now calling for regular order on tax reform.
This is bad news for Republicans, who want to use reconciliation to jam through a massive tax cut for the wealthy.
McCain must be driving McConnel and Trump crazy.
The evil twins Mitch McConnell and Donald Trump, must be cursing McCain under their breath.
This is so delicious!
Senator John McCain of Arizona is laying down the same marker on tax legislation as he did on health care, demanding regular order and support from both parties -- a stance that has proved pivotal in thwarting Senate Republican efforts to undo Obamacare.
“We need to do it in a bipartisan fashion,” McCain said Tuesday of planned tax legislation, arguing that the major congressional reforms that have stood the test of time since the 20th century have included buy-in from both parties. “I am committed, as I’ve said before, to a bipartisan approach, such as we’ve been doing in the Armed Services Committee for the last 53 years,” he told reporters in the Capitol.
