Senate Democrat: GOP budget math 'as fake as Donald Trump’s tan'

Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) blasted Senate Republicans for using a controversial accounting measure while seeking to advance President Trump's massive domestic policy legislation, saying it relies on "fake" math.

"The only way for Republicans to pass this horribly destructive bill, which is based on budget math as fake as Donald Trump's tan, was to go nuclear and hide it behind a bunch of procedural jargon," Wyden, the top Democrat on the Finance Committee, said in a statement late Sunday.
