Bloomberg via Getty Images Rep. Paul Ryan delivers a farewell address at the Library of Congress in Washington on Dec. 19. This week, Ryan and his office released a six-part video series on his decades-long quest to reform the tax code. He almost blew up the tax bill by insisting on a border adjustment tax to offset some of the cuts. And it was the Senate that played the biggest role in shaping the tax bill, with Sens. When Trump said he might try to end birthright citizenship, Ryan suggested such a move would have to come from Congress, which prompted Trump to say that Ryan “knows nothing” about the issue and should be focused on holding the GOP majority ― something Ryan wasn’t able to do.
