Makes a great point that re-election will be the most important issue.
Because of that, I think that getting this right will be more important than getting it done quickly. Also
-Trump can claim he kept his promise by getting a bill to Congress well within the first 100 days
-UNTIL there is a vote, promises can be made and positions waffled on. I think it works for the benefit of all in Congress to delay a vote until after the mid-term election. Republicans can have their cake and eat it, too, shifting blame on to "obstructionist" Democrats, and Democrats can look tough by voting against every unpopular/expensive aspect of any proposal.
No bill can pass the Senate in current form. Senators Cotton, Murkowski, and Collins already said any current House Bill is DOA.
Dems will delay in the Senate. cheers. I did not forecast on 100 days.
Partisan deadlock continues in Senate due to 52-48 Republcan majority.
You were right all along cheers!
