Paul Krugman: The Entire Republican Party Is Rotten To The Core [View all]

The latest Republican tax bill is not just an unprecedented transfer of wealth from the bottom to the very top, but a fundamental restructuring of American society, from public education and health care to the separation of church and state. According to Quinnipiac, just 25 percent of the public approves of the legislation, yet it's expected to pass as early as Friday.

Paul Krugman believes only a party as rotten to its core as the GOP would draft such a bill, much less sign it into law.

The Nobel Prize-winning economist has been railing against the proposal for weeks, and uses his latest column to remind readers just how disgraceful its rollout has been.
