The Dems need to prepare a clear, simple, straightforward presentation showing exactly how Trum]p's FIRST TAX CUT was

spent by the billionaires and millionaires, showing how it was not used to help the overall economy but how it was used by the elite to put more unearned money in their own pockets instead of building up infrastructure, making better jobs, investing in small businesses etc. It was an UNEARNED WINDFALL for the richest folks in the nation and foreign investors. Even some of our wealthiest, although they still took the money, said they didn't need it and some didn't want it. The GOP is literally taking food and medicine from the poor so that the rich can buy more property and yachts to get, yet, more tax breaks.
And it will blow your mind to know how many poor MAGAs actually want that to happen, thinking it won't happen to them.
