MAGA House Republicans will put anything Trump wants in the bill. But Senate Republicans aren't completely insane just horrible people.

The bill will probably sail through the House with only Republican votes. Then Senate Republicans will have to turn it into a budget reconciliation bill so it won't require 60 votes.

There's 3 or 4 "moderate" Republican Senators who don't to lose re-election who will try to make the bill less extreme.

Hopefully this will prolong the process as long as possible.
