Today it's the one big beautiful bill that was going to fix pretty much everything.

The largest tax cut in American history, protection for Medicaid, border security, air traffic control, and even an end to wokeness.

All of that straight out of the White House's own description of what the bill can do, by the way.

The problem is it's hard to argue that any of that would happen if the bill doesn't get passed.

And the deeply divided Republican caucus is still making changes to it as we speak.

It is in danger, which is probably why Trump himself marched to Capitol Hill today with a

couple of warnings to the Republicans standing in his way, number one, to the moderates

who are demanding state and local tax deductions, salt.

He said, quote, let it go.

He even called out New York Congressman Mike Lawler by name, saying, quote, end it, Mike,

just end it. And order number two went to the freedom caucus

Don't F around with Medicaid, he said bring us to the hill today. What did Donald Trump get out of this meeting?

Well, it's clear, Katie, that he hoped that he was going to be able to close the deal today,

that he was going to be able to walk into that room and look at the dispirited factions of the Republican caucus

and tell them the time for fighting is over. Get out of your corners, come to the floor and vote yes.

And while there is some signs that he may have moved the needle more in that direction.

He has by no means close the deal.

There are a number of House Republicans, both on the conservative side of the ledger

and those more moderate Republicans from blue states that are worried about the state and local tax deduction,

who are still no votes and still want to see demonstrable changes in this bill before they're

ready to vote yes this despite trump in that meeting specifically calling them out specifically

telling them that the time for grandstanding was over and that they all needed to come together
