corporate tax cut is number one. they ve been pretty clear about that. but at this point what they want is any sort of legislative achievement or a win or a deal. and if it ends up being a tax cut for the rich, they ll take it, i think. well, they re in the trough. they re heading for it. they ve got a stock market which is booming based on the discount or the expectations they will get this tax cut. they almost have to deliver. well, i don t know if that is i don t know if that s true. i don t know if they ll absolutely get it. but i know certainly they re all trying to rally around that. and even more than that, they know that dronald trump has the party and its base still loyally to them personally. so this is both the legislative aspect where they have to be going back there in 2013. but there s the political aspect where they know who just came out of that primary and they know that even though the country at large may have an approval rating problem with him, that s not
