First, we need to begin to describe what may happen this week as a “loss” for Trump and the country. Signing something so unpopular is far more likely to hurt him and Republicans than help them.
And this terrible, terrible bill is going to do direct, material harm to the country - our health care system is going to be weakened, close to 100m people will be paying more for health care or lose their insurance, tens of millions will struggle to eat, our existential transition to a clean energy future undermined, an unprecedented domestic political police force will be established, the fiscal integrity of the United States will be in jeopardy to the explosion in our deficit and debt, and of course the wealthy and privileged will get their tax cuts. It is a Trumpian monstrosity, an orgy of plutocratic “let them eat cake” greed, another step forward in their fanatical, wrecking ball agenda of sabotage, plunder, and betrayal.’

Signing This Terrible Bill Will Be A Loss For Trump - And America - Not A Win
Our leaders need to hear our roar of disapproval today, tomorrow, all week. Those of you with Republican Senators or House Members need to be particularly loud now
