Trumps budget director was asked this question today.

How are you going to pay for the Texas/Florida recovery and your tax cuts? He answered, Growth. I cannot believe it. People like Trumps budget director are the most dangerous people in this country. They are the ones who have screwed up
America. They are obsessed about tax cuts. They are evil and stupid.

Obamas economy is still in place and doing well. If the republicans get their tax cuts in place, game over. Tax cuts plus massive deregulation will end the Obama economy. It will put us on a path to economic collapse. We have seen this movie before.

The Republican obsession with tax cuts and their belief it cures everything must be addressed more by the news media. Its crazy.

Republican politicians have known since Reagan, that tax cuts only cure the greed of the rich and corporations!!!

But, Republican voters keep drinking the kool-aid, hoping one day to reap their share of treasure!

To Repubs, all problems start and end with: Taxes are too high and the gov't is too big.

One way is TAX REPATRIATION , which does NOT work, but the trumpsters, the deplorables dont know that.

Goodbye America.
