Deepa Shivaram: 作为白宫记者，我认为共和党即将通过特朗普总统的税收和支出法案，其中包括延长特朗普第一任期的减税政策，并增加移民和军事方面的支出，这些都是总统的竞选承诺。然而，这项法案中削减医疗补助以及增加赤字的部分仍然备受争议，可能会对中期选举产生影响。 Tamara Keith: 作为资深白宫记者，我认为特朗普总统需要积极推销这个法案，否则人们可能会忘记它的好处，特别是由于它只是现有减税政策的延续，很多人可能不会注意到实际利益。此外，这项法案同时包含减税和支出削减，这与以往不同，可能会引发更多争议。许多共和党人最初反对这项法案，因为它增加了太多的赤字，但在总统的压力或劝说下，他们改变了立场。 Domenico Montanaro: 作为资深政治编辑和记者，我认为民主党正在将这场辩论扩大到更广泛的医疗保健领域，而不仅仅是医疗补助，这与2010年《平价医疗法案》引发的茶党运动形成对比，当时该法案是负面的，但现在却获得了创纪录的支持。此外，选民通常难以将三、四、五年后出现的问题与某项立法直接联系起来，因此这项法案的长期影响难以预测。
