and yet, conservatives will eat it up. while screaming cry more libs, and crying about owning the left whatever they think that means as majority poor members of the working class 💀 you can't make this shit up

I know people who voted for Trump because they thought these tax cuts would apply to them. With them not being super rich, it’s never going to happen. Can’t convince them otherwise though.
-
It's because they all think that they're temporarily inconvenienced billionaires, with rivers of money about to pour in, any time now.. any day... so of course they vote for anything that will benefit them based on their expectation of being part of that group

Last time they gave a few $1000 that expired after a few years. They'll probably do something similar again.

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine had a great way of exposing that attitude through the Ferengi. Quark, the proprietor of Quark's Bar, mistreats his employees again, and they are pissed. Station chief Miles O'brian tries to rally them to form a union of bar workers and to strike, and one of them, Rom, actually says:
Ferengi workers don't want to stop the exploitation. We want to find a way to become the exploiters.
The lie of the "american dream" - don't rally against rich people, for you might once become one of them^[your chance might be less than one in a trillion].

I haven't heard them explaining this. Have they said that this will help the rich pay the poor, or have they dropped all pretence yet?
-
Conservatives don't care, all they hear is "Donald trump is winning and that's great!"
Nazis are fucking stupid.

Might be time to just worry about state taxes and not federal.

Wow look at all the corruption they're uncovering, that's crazy how much money they are saving us Americans. I can't wait to recoup my money the government is saving...

Any vestiges of actually good things the federal government does are being wittled away. F***ing pathetic
If only we could have stopped this somehow
You still could, but it requires taking to the streets in protest. The days are ticking away as he consolidates his power. It won't always be an option.
The government has always been run by the wealthy, half-assedly protecting workers rights at best. The only logical choice remains - unionization.
