Everybody knows the bill that passed today in the Senate is a bad piece of legislation–a transfer of money from the bottom to the top, a disaster for health care, and provisions to speed up global warming.
Almost all of the Republican Senators voted for it anyway. Some were too stupid to understand it. I’m looking at you, Tommy Tuberville. Some didn’t care. I’m looking at you Sen. McCormick of PA. Some are cynical. Step up, Mitch McConnell. Most were afraid of Trump’s wrath in the next election. That’s probably the majority. And then there was Lisa Murkowski, who knew the bill was bad, said the bill was bad, got a few baubles for Alaska, and proved once and for all that she has no integrity.
Rand Paul voted no, but for bad reasons. Thom Tillis voted no and decided not to run again. And Susan Collins, after disappointing us time after time, found the courage to vote no. Thank you, Sen. Collins.
