Kevin McCarthy: 我认为特朗普总统现在的实力比他政治生涯中的任何时候都强。在众议院,他能够让原本反对税收法案的议员在24小时内改变立场并投票支持。我相信自由党团最终也会支持该法案,他们只是为了获得总统的关注。他们经常通过声称反对来引起注意,以便能够去椭圆形办公室见总统。这项法案的通过符合特朗普总统的竞选承诺,美国人民也投票支持了这些承诺。即使你不投票给他,你也会尊重他信守承诺。我相信,因为我们选举了特朗普总统,世界变得更美好,他正在信守承诺,美国也会因此变得更强大。议员们应该努力改善选区居民的生活,并以此为荣。 Kevin McCarthy: 从我个人的角度来看,我认为这是一项非常好的法案。如果不通过该法案,税收将会增加,经济会受到影响。此前通过的税收法案实际上增加了人们的收入,公司向员工发放了奖金。虽然国会预算办公室(CBO)可能会给出不同的评估,但我们知道实际情况是,标准普尔500指数创下了新纪录。人们开始关注法案的积极方面,而不是只关注错误。例如,尼克·莱洛纳对该法案表示支持,因为该法案改善了他所在选区的SALT条款。议员们担心在社交媒体上受到抨击,这影响了他们的决定。
