    Maybe if you give them a chance. They’ve had power with a significant major for like 2 years in the last 20.

      I see what they do when they are given a chance. They do the same tax cuts for the rich and fund genocides. It isn’t just republicans that got us into this mess, they are working together for the same rich donators. Thinking they can be your allies is most dangerous thing you can do in politics.

        “The same tax cuts.” I don’t like giving a break to low millions earners either but linking to an article describing how the bill raised taxes on high millions earners doesn’t actually support your both sidesing.

        See that part you missed about significant majority.

        The bill now faces an uphill battle in the Senate, where moderate Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin has expressed major concerns over a variety of elements of the plan.
