McConnell: 'Impossible' to promise every member of middle class gets a tax cut

[red dog 1]

14. McConnell today on Face the Nation: ".We followed the regular order. There were multiple hearings..

...The Democrats were there...Days of hearings...Days of amendments...The Democrats offered amendments in committee ad nauseam......The process on the floor, the reconciliation process, is regular order...That's how they passed Obamacare......It's - it's - we didn't do anything that you could call a foul on process."

JOHN DICKERSON:
"well, they - "

McCONNELL:
"Well, they didn't -- didn't -- well, let me just say they didn't -- they didn't like the fact that we repealed the unpopular individual mandate from Obamacare, but yet they didn't offer a single amendment to take it out, and they had the opportunity to do it."

DICKERSON:
"Well, they had twenty-five days of debate on Obamacare...And you said the process at the time was arrogant and that they were pushing an unpopular bill through...This bill is unpopular.
Why isn't it the same thing?"

McCONNELL:
"Well, we'll see how unpopular it is when people start noticing they're paying less in taxes, the economy's growing, there are more jobs and opportunity..."
