'Downhill from here': Writer claims Trump's pride and joy will take down the GOP

American voters dislike the provisions of President Donald Trump's "one big beautiful bill" so much that it will be the undoing of both Trump and congressional Republicans, according to a new opinion piece on MSNBC.com.

"A recent Washington Post poll showed a plurality of Americans oppose the version of the Republican megabill that narrowly passed the House of Representatives in May, and that’s at a time when two-thirds said that they have heard little or nothing about the legislation," wrote Editor Ryan Teague Beckwith, adding, "It's only downhill from here."

Trump is betting his presidential legacy on the megabill, but "voters said they dislike most of the major provisions, such as cutting taxes for corporations and the wealthy, and spending billions to build new migrant detention centers," Beckwith wrote. "The few things they like, such as tax breaks for parents and on tipped income, are so paltry they aren't likely to give Trump or the GOP much of a boost."

Beckwith cited the reasons the House version of Trump's bill will leave Americans worse off than they were before his second term, writing, "It would cause 16 million Americans to lose health insurance, according to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities; It would lead to 4 million fewer Americans getting food stamps, according to the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office; and it would increase the deficit by $2.4 trillion over the next decade, according to the CBO."

GOP senators are currently hashing out their challenges to the bill on life-altering issues like tax cuts and Medicaid. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) called the Senate Finance cuts to the health care entitlement "deeper and more devastating than even the Republican House's disaster of a bill."

Beckwith predicted that the bill will be the death of the GOP in its current form if it's signed into law. They'll be voted out of office as millions more Americans are unable to "see a doctor or feed their children and fruit is rotting in the fields while immigration officers swarm farms, factories, churches, schools and courthouses around the country to deport hard-working immigrants without criminal records."

"That will be Trump's legacy," Beckwith concluded, as well as "the legacy of every Republican who votes for it."
