Republicans have known for some time that they have a problem. The Trump tax cuts for the wealthy, passed in 2017, are set to expire at the end of this year. If they don’t renew them, they will have to answer to their big donors. But if they do renew them, as they almost certainly will, it will blow a massive hole in the budget, requiring a hefty debt ceiling raise. open.substack.com/pub/thinkbig

@mstarace What? The tax cuts they are talking about renewing are not for the wealthy, and way back then Republicans were criticized over how these tax cuts for the non-wealthy had an expiration date.

There's a lot of historical revisionism in this reporting.

Yes, Republicans have a problem, but it's not that as the prior reporting showed.
