Sounds like a few Republicans finally realized that you can't cut taxes for the rich, raise spending and reduce the debt at the same time. The Trump circus continues!

The GOP-led House Budget Committee voted to reject a sweeping package for President Donald Trump's agenda on Friday, dealing an embarrassing setback for Republican leaders.

The vote in the Budget Committee was 16-21, with five conservative hard-liners joining all Democrats in voting against the multitrillion-dollar legislation. After the vote tally was read, Rep. Jodey Arrington, R-Texas, the committee chair, adjourned the hearing and told members they would not be meeting again this weekend.

Well, no. They opposed this because there aren't enough cuts to start reducing the deficit spending and the debt. so they want MORE cuts than what is proposed.

Yes, but if they weren’t hell bent on tax cuts for millionaires billionaires, those spending cuts wouldn’t be necessary.

Dog and pony show. In the end, every single republican will get behind this bill and it will pass.
