Republicans in Congress and the White House have fully embraced the bizarre belief that passing legislation people hate is the pathway to earning votes.
“Forget whether people like the ACA repeal plan, just do it,“ GOP leaders exhorted, “Voters won’t care if they hate what you’ve done, as long as you’ve done something.”
The same cuckoo’s nest cheerleaders are making the same argument for passing tax reform.
There’s no doubt that the current tax bill, like ACA repeal, is widely despised. Indeed, it’s the most unpopular piece of tax legislation in over 40 years. CONT.
