Why Republicans Won’t Pass a Budget

Stan Collender: “McConnell said his plan not to do a fiscal 2019 budget was based on a soulless political calculation that his new 51-49 majority will make it hard, very hard or impossible for the Senate GOP to pass its own budget resolution this year, let alone to adopt one that will be acceptable to the House.”

“But what McConnell didn’t say was that the fiscal 2019 budget resolution will be the first that will show the bottom line impact of all the GOP policies: a $1 trillion or higher annual deficit every year of the Trump administration and beyond. Even if Congress and the Office of Management and Budget again choose to ignore the facts, the Congressional Budget Office, Wall Street and other private sector analyses will project annual trillion dollar deficits. McConnell doesn’t want his Republican members to face the political repercussions of having to vote for that.”

1. This is So Awful

Republicans by way of Trump have put our country in jeopardy. The immense wealth of the right wing paid off the Republican
members in Congress to pass this horrible tax reform and now they are paralyzing the whole country in fear of the consequences.
The Democratic leadership must do something to let the public know what's happening that is destroying the financial health of this country. The consequence could be a big market crash.

2. McConnell is one of the main reasons the United States is slowly sinking

His leadership is destroying the United States.

3. Exactly! McConnell wlll use this as a a campaign issue. Dems need to beat him to the punch.

Emphasize what the budget would look like using the GOP principles and make sure voters realize that if GOP retains control and perhaps increase their numbers Congress, they will propose cuts to Medicare and SS to balance their budget.

4. McConnell and Ryan need to be heavily targeted for removal in their next elections.

They both must be removed from office!

6. McConnell is not up until 2020, but Let's make him a powerless Minority Leader!
