WASHINGTON — Congressional Republicans, stunned by their own good, if complicated, fortune, said on Wednesday that they would move quickly next year on an agenda that merges with President-elect Donald J. Trump’s, repealing the Affordable Care Act, cutting taxes, confirming conservative judges, shrinking government programs and rolling back regulations.

They act as if they think nothing has changed and this is Bush II.
And maybe it is. Who knows what Trump thinks? We are going to find out quickly enough.

And if this is indeed Bush II, and the continuation on steroid of everything that happened before, then we are screwed.
I doubt the next step will be about pushing a button on a voting machine.

Perdue earlier today said: Republican Sen. David Perdue is laying out what he thinks president-elect Donald Trump's first 100 days will look like, saying in radio interviews that GOP lawmakers will not need to compromise to swiftly push through a repeal of Obamacare, the Clean Air Act, the so-called "Waters of the United States" rule, and pass the Keystone pipeline.

"If we have the majority, they don't need to compromise, we don't need to compromise on one thing, that's Obamacare," the Georgia senator said on Trending Today USA with Rusty Humphries Wednesday.

Perdue added Republicans would take aim at the Dodd-Frank financial regulation bill as well.

Now, that's helping the working class.
Repealing Obamacare will go over great. Especially if they replace it by nothing, or saving accounts, or the like.

These people have lost touch with reality. They really think they can squeeze more out of this.
