@slcw Of course they'd be all for it if the money was going to tax cuts for rich people. But help out non-rich people? Why, that's socialism, and we can't have that!

@StanWonn What's even worse is that these same Republicans voted for the bill in the first place. Now that it's been funded and implemented, they're in a tizzy about it.
