Not Set In Stone
Donnelly didn’t sign the letter, but he hasn’t joined with Trump’s tax plan either.
He said “I’m going to try to figure out what’s in it.”
Trumps plan is to negotiate with Democrats. This is a job that will be tough to fulfill.
“This is going to be a negotiation,” Brian Higgins said. Higgins is a Republican who spoke NBC News after a meeting with Trump.
Rep. Alcee Hastings thinks Trump will get through to some Democrats. She said “he’ll peel off a few.” Hastings is a liberal Florida Democrat.
Jim Kessler works for the Democrats. He said “I don’t expect Democrats to say that GOP tax proposals are dead on arrival, but I expect a lot of skepticism.”
Trump seems to have found an alternative besides his Party. He has met some stiff resistance when it comes to certain legislature.
But a getting some Democrat support could help his game plan.
This certainly shows the lack of unity in the Democratic camp. Tax reform is one of those things that Democrats want change on.
Trump realizes this and has made his move in that regard.
