As a candidate, Trump positioned himself as a different kind of Republican. With all the integrity of a late-night infomercial host, Trump rinsed away the taint of decades of GOP economic mismanagement. In a spin cycle, he promised his plans would bring prosperity to a long-overlooked working class. But what Trump ultimately delivered is what all Republican presidents have delivered since Ronald Reagan: bubbly new wealth for the already rich, while putting the middle-class through the wringer.
This cycle has played out twice in plain view: First with Trump’s 2017 tax cut, which showered wealth on the richest, offering the middle class a drop in the bucket, and now with a pandemic response that has inflated the wealth of billionaires, even as main-street America reels under a Depression-level crisis.
Contrary to all of Trump’s assurances, his tax bill generated a windfall to the 1 percent. It’s the continuance of 40 years of upward siphoning of the nation’s wealth to a tiny elite. Income-tax cuts generated an extra $50,0000 a year for America’s highest earners. But the real benefit, $1.35 trillion, went to corporations — and by extension only to their top executives and shareholders.
Yet, Trump supporters still worship him as a GOD
@earl-of-trumps saidYou're right about that. Mchill, on the other hand, speaks truth.
this post sucks
@mchill saidAnd as a result, for everything he didn't do for them, these middle to lower class Republicans showered him with the one thing they had that was of value. Their vote.

PHONIES
I had it right originally, mchill, your post SUCKS
without having ONE WORD of say,,,
the desperate poor in America have had their paychecks attacked three and sometimes FOUR ways and never could have a say in it
Federal income taxes, state income taxes, social security taxes, and in some cases, city income tax stripped down the paychecks of the poor before the poor ever saw their paycheck.
ALL of this democrat party inspired and executed. STEALING FROM THE POOR - count the ways
You phonies - you frauds,
