McConnell works to salvage tax bill
By Alexander Bolton - 11/30/17 10:38 PM EST

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) has his work cut out for him to save the Senate tax bill, which stalled Thursday evening after three GOP rebels threatened to effectively kill it.

After weeks of careful negotiations, Senate Republicans are locked in a huge behind-the-scenes fight over what the tax bill should look like.

To pass the bill, McConnell and his leadership team will have to craft substantial revisions and they have only 24 hours to do it, give or take, or otherwise postpone the effort altogether until next week.

It's the revolving door of d-bag monkey wrenches trying to derail even the most minute progress in DC. Now it's Corker, Flake, and Johnson. Always 3 votes.
The Republic is lost.
