Faster than Montezuma's Revenge
And now with 100% more shit than ever before the Republican controlled House voted to pass the Great Repblican Tax Scam of 2017 as amended in conference where all kinds of secret shit was added. Now it will go on to the Senate where Mitch the Turtle and Slippery John Cornyn have openly bought all the necessary Senate votes to pass the Piece of Shit in the Senate.
The House on Tuesday approved the most sweeping tax overhaul in decades, voting along party lines to enact deep and permanent tax cuts for corporations and temporary cuts for individuals. The vote puts Republicans one Senate vote and one presidential signature away from their first significant legislative achievement.While this bill will have little effect on the Senate as few Republicans are up for renewal, it should effectively decimate the Republican majority as it is as popular as a shit sandwich in a diarrhea ward. Unfortunately it will not be until 2021 that we will have any realistic opportunity to throw out this piece of shit along with more of the shits who voted for it.
The Senate is expected to approve the $1.5 trillion tax bill on Tuesday night or Wednesday, clearing the way for President Trump to sign it into law by Christmas.
House Speaker Paul D. Ryan of Wisconsin, speaking on the House floor, called the vote “a turning point” saying “this is our chance, this is our moment.” When the bill passed the House, a giddy Mr. Ryan smiled broadly and banged the gavel with force as he declared victory.
Passage of the bill came over the strenuous objections of Democrats in both the House and the Senate, who have accused Republicans of giving a gift to corporations and the wealthy and driving up the federal debt in the process. The final vote tally can be found here.
Twelve House Republicans also voted no on the bill, including lawmakers from high-tax states like New York, New Jersey and California.
