Some of the items contained in the GOP tax reform discussion are just “buying off” holdouts and serve no other purpose, Republican Sen. Bob Corker told CNBC on Thursday.
“Some of the things we’re doing, I’m sorry, are ridiculous,” Corker told “Squawk Box,” though he did not mention any specifics.
“I’m sorry, but we live in a political world,” said Corker, a member on the Senate Budget and Banking committees. Those things are “not going to drive 1 ounce of economic growth. But it’s what you have to do to pass a tax bill.”
