All of this “over the cliff” garbage is just that.
The Republicans caved in weeks ago and are waiting until the very list hour to finally make it public so that it will look like they fought almost to the death to capitulate to the enemy (Democrats).
In that way, they can say they did the best they could.
I expect the “breakthrough..(ie. “cave in”) to occur about 11 pm on the final day before the cliff is reached.
Another goof!
Last = list
