Highlights:

• “The CBO’s projections claim that the Bill will increase the deficit by $2.4 trillion over 10 years, whereas the OMB projects that the Bill will lower the deficit by $1.4 trillion.”
• “Musk calls the bill an abomination and actively calls for its defeat… He’s even threatening to support primary challengers against anyone who votes for it.”
• “The Republican base, by and large, likes the bill, and most particularly, Trump’s base really likes the bill.”
• “Voting against this bill will be political suicide, both in terms of Trump’s wrath against you and the voters’ wrath after they see their tax bill next April.”
