It takes real incompetence to pass a tax cut bill that is this unpopular https://t.co/n3AU12YxYv pic.twitter.com/rGTeFLR9f8— Michael Cohen (@speechboy71) December 19, 2017
Speaking of Republican incompetence:
After years of false starts and failed promises, House Republicans had another one Tuesday: They passed a tax bill with provisions that were struck down by the Senate parliamentarian.
Even though House Republicans had already congratulated themselves in a series of speeches, the House will have to vote again on Wednesday, after the Senate passed a new version of the final tax bill, 51-48, on a party-line vote with John McCain (R-Ariz.) absent. (our emphasis)

who was tax cut designed to help?
--63% say corporations and the wealthy
--7% say middle-class
Barring extreme political malpractice by Democrats (something that's always to be considered), this monstrosity will be one of several anvils that will bring Republicans down in 2018 and beyond. Here's some preliminary, generic evidence in one demographic:

If you think your vote doesn't count, take a look at the Virginia House of Delegates outcome: Dems won by ONE vote. ONE.
Diva - That's right. And two more contests are still undecided due to recounts.
