either have to go to conference committee in him at the differences and get one version and have it go through the house and senate and i still think it's possible the house they have to accept the senate bill potentially particularly if republicans lose the alabama senate seat on september 12th which is a 50/50 shot right now, they would have one fewer but the second time around. this is for the white house. has to be very clear they want 20%, but these things are negotiations that ultimately it's about the vote. lauren: i'm glad you brought that out. we are but we're looking at full screen full screen with six senators who are potential holdouts. let's say that 20% corporate tax rate is not a redline for the president in a move that up to 22%, then you are doing another republican who might have been this plan. have you appease everybody with this? >> it's tricky. there's so many moving pieces at this. i have my scorecard right here. i know lisa murkowski if she

in the house they had one approach, which lost the members in new jersey and new york but gained enough in california to pass the bill. the senate keep in mind will go through an amendment a process where they will have dozens and dozens of votes over a 12 hour. hearing about a day or so so that will tell us what the final bill is. keep in mind they could boost to republican votes. they had all 52 republicans. they could lose lisa murkowski or john mccain and still pass the vice president breaks the tie. a very good chance the hopping. cheryl: part fatimah cádiz i was enamored. on a talk about johnson and danes. a lot more to be done for mainstream businesses, more for small businesses. do you think was a lower tax rates because the argument is that bill is doing so much to help big companies with the corporate tax rate but not so
