"Last night, when most of you were in bed, the US House of Representatives passed one of the pieces of domestic legislation in modern American history." ???? Yeah, they passed one of the pieces.

I think Michael meant to write "one of the worst pieces," don't you?

Or one of the most "appalling" or one of the most "cruel" or one of the most "offensive" or one of the most "destructive" .... so many possibilities.

This Republican Tax Scam bill is once again an example of the Republican Way. While Democrats believe in a helping hand - Republicans help only themselves.

The good news is the fight over the bill isn't over and it can be stopped. Undoubtedly when the Senate finishes their slicing and dicing, it will be dramatically different from what the House just voted on, bringing on another round of infighting and deal-making and threats and bribes from Trump.

There's every chance the bill may never pass the House a second time. If it does, we will be a government of the billionaires, by the billionaires, and for the billionaires.

I feel like Newman on Seinfeld, who said the mail keeps coming and coming and coming....The Trump horror show is like that. The horrors keep coming and coming and coming.... It's hard to be hopeful.
