Something like that. Sounds like it won't pass in the Senate?
It won't. Don't worry about the math--the Senate probably won't even take it up so the House bill is totally irrelevant. It's an attempt for Republican representatives to tout their tax cut bona fides before the election.

One of the more insane yet not implausible covering my own ass and explaining my pivot stories I’ve ever read.

In interview with The Washington Post published Friday, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said that Trump thought nuclear devastation was on its way shortly after he was elected. While discussing national security with the president at the White House, Graham said he was concerned about how to handle America's relationship with North Korea. Just then, footage of a missile launch came on the TV nearby. Before Trump declared himself "in love" with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, he had less trust in the isolated nation's commitment to denuclearization. Despite the fact that Trump would be one of the very first people to know about a hypothetical nuclear attack, he thought that Fox News was reporting an incoming missile. In reality, it was an old clip the channel was using for a regular news segment.
"That's old footage, old footage!" Graham recalls telling Trump. The senator said he changed his mind about the president and became his ally for just this reason — to make sure Trump doesn't wrongly believe he needs to rush to his nuclear button.

Oh well thanks Lindsey Fucking Graham for saving us all from destruction by a moron. Allying yourself with him was clearly the only option for dealing with that threat. :roll:

and by voting for his Supreme Court Nominee/protector, Graham ensured that the President cannot be removed from office, thereby making the need to babysit him an endless exercise
