Attack Dog Bannon becomes threat for Senate GOP on taxes
 [The Hill] Steve Bannon is becoming a problem for Republicans on tax reform.President Trump’s former chief strategist is threatening to support right-wing opponents to every GOP senator up for reelection, aside from Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas). He argues that GOP senators are falling short in enacting the Trump agenda, blasting Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) and his conference over the failure to repeal ObamaCare. If the GOP follows up with another loss on tax reform, Republican senators know it will just give Bannon more ammunition to use against them. "There’s one antidote to Steve Bannon: success," Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) told reporters on Tuesday. A win on tax reform could quiet Bannon, Graham suggested. Posted by: Besoeker 2017-10-18 |
