Can someone check my math? I’m estimating Trumps first term tax cuts saved the top 1% at least $100b durning his first term. Trump is complaining about less than $9m being spent here. $9m is 0.009% of $100b. Did I get that all right?
I’m not a conservative. Just in case it wasn’t clear. I believe taxes are a bandaid, a stop gap that let’s the rich get away with too much, when we should instead seize the means of wealth generation.

It is closer to $2.5. trillion.
But you aren’t a conservative. If you ever argued with one about this it will boil down to: taxes are theft, the rich are entitled to those tax cuts.
Fixed it for you.

Sorry if there was any confusion. I meant for my post to be clarifying and entertaining.
I didn’t not intend to accuse you of support or dissent of anything.
but of course; the poor are not.
The only right they understand is might. Like a pinata it only trickles down after beating it with a stick.
Yup.
