Democrats need Tax reform to fail so they can succeed!

A story in Politico last month kind of came and went, but we feel it’s worth another look, as Pelosi is out in the streets chanting KILL THE BILL!

 

From the Article:

House Democrats have spent weeks publicly lambasting Republicans for trying to muscle through a partisan tax overhaul. But privately, Democratic leaders have no intention of engaging with Republicans even if they offered, sources close to them say.House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) is convinced another GOP crash-and-burn would likely hand Democrats the House next year, so there’s no political upside to playing ball.

“You will be in the majority” if Republicans continue to stumble, Pelosi said during a closed-door caucus meeting on Tuesday, according to sources in the room.

And this line

The strategy puts Democrats on the tax-writing Ways and Means Committee in an awkward spot — haranguing Republicans for refusing to work with them while their own leaders hope the GOP continues its party-line push.

Not shocking, but still disgusting.
