Mostambitious rewrite of the tax code in over three decades. And nobody, and i mean nobody, knows precisely whats in the bill. Or what exactly it would do. In a session on the floor, lawmakers scrambling to get legislation passed before it can see the light of day, before anyone can figure out whats in it. Adding to the urgency is the increasingly unhinged behavior of the president of the United States, whose pen they still need to sign a tax bill into law. This bill that theyre debating right now, that they plan to vote on tomorrow, is why, for the past year and a half, republicans have chosen to tolerate Donald Trumps destabilizing, dangerous conduct. Nothing hes done has outweighed the singular goal of getting this thing passed. Not his bragging about committing Sexual Assault backed up by accusations from over a dozen women on record, Nick Collison his attacks on the u. S. Intelligence committee or deference to Vladimir Putin or mounting evidence his campaign tried to collude with
Shoots down the statement that donald trump is a selfmade millionaire and democrats wanting to see his tax returns if they win in november. A, quote, credible witness with, quote, compelling testimony that Supreme Court nominee judge Brett Kavanaugh assaulted her . Then he mocked that testimony. How did you get home . I dont remember. Where was the place . I dont remember. How many years ago . I dont remember. What neighbor was it in . I dont know. Where is the house . I dont know. Upstairs, downstairs, where was it . I dont know. But i had one beer. Thats the only thing i remember. Lets put aside for a second the fact that such memory lapses are not even remotely uncommon for survivors of Sexual Assault and for one men lets ignore whether or not you believe that it was kavanaugh who assaulted Christine Blaseyford. Lets take a closer look at what President Trump was doing here, provoking laughter, invoking a certain reaction from some of those in the crowd. Take a closer look. I dont k
Play. Focus of tonights angle. The democrats and many on this the left worked around the clock to kill Brett Kavanaughs nomination to the Supreme Court. But i think they made a fay natural miscalculation. They thought it was okay along the way to jettison the principle of due process, and to use victims to pursue a radical political agenda. On the first Year Anniversary of the me too movement, i think its important to remember that this all started with liberal democrat harvey weinstein. Friend of bill and hillary, and of course barack obama, and remember he, the hollywood mogul, megadonor. I mean this guy is where it all happened. And, remember, the abuse there started the cultural moment of me too. This notion of object ty fieing women and using them for the pleasure of the powerful has been long nurtured by the left. At the same time it was also prowomen as we abuse women on the casting couch, et cetera. And entertainment industry, had the target on its back. But now we see the same

A better choice, someone in the middle who can speak to their values, they would vote for someone like me. Paul lets bring in wall street journal columnist and deputy editor, Dan Henninger, Mary Anastasia ogrady and James Freeman. James, Howard Schultz is a lifetime democrat. Yes. Paul are you surprised that he is suggesting he might run as an independent . Why do that . I think hes seeing an opportunity here where poyou ha a democratic nomination process that seems currently built to anoint a progressive extreme left as he is wondering if maybe, there is still a place for liberals in the american political system. We dont want to go all the way to venezuela type paul you mean kennedy liberals and even bill clinton . Right. Not long ago there was ideological diversity within the party. And maybe it is an independent run but who knows maybe he does well as an independent. He ultimately gets democrats to start thinking maybe they ought to move to the center too. Paul interesting.
