They had tried it twice before, and Obama had vetoed it twice. Now, with a another fake in the White House, they'll get it through. That is the meat and potatoes of Trump's actual effect. It's what the Republicans have wanted for a long time, and now have the means to do. <br /><br />We will see whether the result will be a dismantling of the economic gains of the Obama years. <br /><br />My guess is: Stock market crash in 2017, and a prolonged recession lasting at least three years. That will mean Trump's a one-term President, but what a price to pay to have "achieved" it. Curtis Favillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06213075853354387634noreply@blogger.com
