Spicer: White House "driving the train" on tax reform. Hmmm...high on cocaine, perhaps?

Spicer: White House 'driving the train' on tax reform



http://thehill.com/policy/finance/326000-spicer-white-house-driving-the-train-on-tax-reform

White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer said Monday that the Trump administration is "driving the train" on tax reform.

The administration will work with Congress on tax reform, but President Trump has made it very clear that "this is a huge priority for him, something that he feels very passionately about," Spicer said in a press briefing.

The press secretary's comments come as Congress is shifting its attention to tax reform, since legislation to repeal and replace ObamaCare was unsuccessful.

When asked about the timing of tax reform, Spicer said, "I think part of this is going to be dependent on the degree to which we can come to consensus on a lot of big issues."

Sounds like Trump is going to ask people to get on his tax reform train at platform 9 and 3/4. After 11am.

There is a reason why no successful tax reform was done for 39 years. I don't think Trump remotely has the skill or patience to see things through.
