Orrin Hatch Rips into Sherrod Brown in Committee Meeting: ‘This Bullcrap You Guys Throw out Really Gets Old’

Orrin Hatch Rips into Sherrod Brown in Committee Meeting: ‘This Bullcrap You Guys Throw out Really Gets Old’ (Mediaite)

During a Senate committee meeting Thursday evening over the GOP tax bill, two senators — a Democrat and a Republican — acted as if they wanted to get into a steel cage to settle their differences.

In an absolutely vicious back-and-forth, Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) and Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-UT) straight up lit into each other as emotions ran high over the highly criticized and largely unpopular tax proposal.

Hatch got things going by disputing that Republicans’ tax reform legislation was nothing more than a giveaway to the wealthy and corporations, highlighting that he comes from working-class stock.
