What is that unfamiliar feeling?

Optimism? Hope?

Hey y'all.... things aren't looking good for the big ugly bill even if trump's out there lying desperately about it on TV.

In the past hour or two, I've heard Robert Reich say that the bill is in trouble, and Simon Sanders Townsend just said "Donald Trump's budget bill is on the brink of collapse."

Obviously, we'll see but I am glad they are talking about how bad it is and how much trouble it is in in the Senate on MSNBC, at least.
