It's about to pass. Strap in for drive-by gloating, because some people's only joy comes from seeing liberals upset.

You think they'll defend it? The contours of the bill have been known for weeks now but our House Pubs have been conspicuously absent. Why would they show up now when they've been sitting on their dicks for the last few weeks?

To be fair to you, I have no doubt they'll show up to gloat. But it won't be to defend the bill on its merits. It will only be Team A > Team B. And there are two reasons for that. (1) They have no idea how the bill could be defended on its merits, and (2) Nothing matters except a "win" over Team B.

So congrats, Team A. You bought the farm. Let's see what it produces over the next few months.

Right, but it's not as if people are going to stop talking about those cuts.

Talking about it gets forgotten. The full repercussions won't happen until after Trump leaves office. Pubs will find some way to point the finger at Dems for the problems they caused. MAGAs won't care about a crisis that primarily affects the marginalized and disenfranchised segments of society.
 
Okay
Ya'll please post anything you might see the next day or two about the phasing of this thing Specifically when do we start throwing people off of Medicaid

Most of the Medicaid changes go into effect after the mid term elections.

This guy dumping stock in his Medicaid provider company holding probably eased his pain in having to vote yes on the BBB...

When you combine how this bill sucks resources from the lower and middle classes along with the looming dollar catastrophe as it continues its decline in value and the general global tariff situation - we are staring an economic cliff not seen in a long time.The devaluation of the dollar is a screaming siren and it is only getting worse.

Republican majority in Congress is now done. I look forward to next November in tossing their lying greedy shoe-licking butts out on the street to suffer with the rest of us.

Trump now has a private masked police force with billions of dollars at its disposal. Do you think that force isn’t going to play a role in the next election? I’m really fucking worried about what we’re going to witness and experience relatively soon.

At which point they will cry about the national debt and how it's going to hurt their kids.

Conservative never really meant fiscally conservative. Now it means the opposite.

MAGA is composed of the marginalized and disenfranchised segments of society.
