Did you say “trillion”??? You missed the “s” off the end!!
Just the Corporate cut is $1.5T, and that’s before you get to the tax cut for the rich!
Not to worry, though, they are going to take the money out of old age pensioners’ healthcare...just as they raise the cost of their healthcare and their numbers are ballooning from the Baby Boomer generation. Then, in future years, when Dems try to fix that clusterfuck, they will scream “The Democrats are trying to raise your taxes, ruin your future and ruin the economy!”
Seen this game over and over and over again...and I’ve only been here 35 yrs! Reagan screwed Bush I with it, because he was too much of a dyed in the wool American to watch the country fail, then Bush II did it to Obama. Only question is, who is Trump going to fuck over....other than the American people, of course....to line his own pockets and those of his children and fat cat friends?!
Politics in America, as we have seen, has been co-opted by the rich and divisive AT THE EXPENSE of the American people. Anyone see the BBC NEWS story yesterday that 8% of Americans cannot read and write or are considered functionally illiterate to the point that they cannot hold a job?! The country is being run by the rich who get wealthy off the urban centers full of Democrats, then turn to their base of “rugged individuals” in the hinterlands who believe that the cities are full of welfare queens (after all, that’s what RWNJ radio and Faux News tell them) and their tax money is going to Cadillacs and cellphones for the “urban poor” while they toil in the fields, and tell them Washington isn’t helping them. Then, the R’s get rid of the Estate Taxes (under the guise of saving THEIR family farms!!!) and the illusion is complete and everyone with a brain scratches it while everyone without a brain wears their #MAGA hat to plough the South 40!
Trump is merely the Daddy Warbucks caricature that shows just how far this nonsense has gone!
We are shaping up for a fall.
