[h=1]House Republicans PASS Trump tax bill after president visits Capitol Hill and gives them a 'pep rally'[/h]
  • House Republicans passed their tax reform package Thursday afternoon, with 227 members for the bill and 205 voting against it
  • Members of the GOP caucus cheered when the package received enough votes, while several Democrats in the chamber trolled them
  • The vote came after President Trump briefly appeared before GOP Republicans in what one member described as a 'pep rally'
  • Now the tax reform action will move to the Senate, as a bill that includes repealing the Obamacare individual mandate has been proposed
  • House members who talked to DailyMail.com said Trump didn't delve into specifics today and didn't say which version of the tax bill he preferred

the bill sucks, they could do so much better

the truth is, while much of upper middle income families (actually just middle income families in CT) have a tax increase, the wealthiest people receive significant tax breaks

this is not how it's supposed to be, this is not what I envisioned, I've never seen something like this before

I can't defend this plan, and that SHOCKS me
