Trump also wants to abolish the Estate Tax (a tax that only effects the richest 0.2% of Americans) and this act for example will give Donald Trump's own family an extra $7 billion dollars.

Trump family would get $7B windfall from estate-tax plan: analyst | TheHill


And Trump's infrastructure plan is nothing but a $1 trillion dollar giveaway for his business networks and fellow billionaire elites. And for every dollar these billionaires invest in Trumps plan regular Americans tax dollars will give these billionaires .82 cents, that means these billionaires only spend .18 cents for every dollar they invest (and then these billionaires keep the entire investment as their own personal property.)

Robert Reich (TRUMP
It's funny how when Trump was running for president, the left would have us believe, because he did not release his tax return, that he is not even really a billionaire. But NOW, when it comes to how much taxes he will save from his own tax plan, he is suddenly a multi billionaire again.

As to the estate tax, I never really understood why we need to repeal it. I have protected my children from the government through an irrevocable trust so I don't care about the estate tax either way. I would imagine that anyone else who is subject to the estate tax has done the same.

Great job, Mr. President!
Let's see..

I did not vote for him because I had that luxury and I knew he would win here anyway. The biggest thing he has done for me is Neil Gorsuch and Hillary not being in the people's house. I knew he was not presidential and embarrassing but she was not a choice at all for me.

Welcome, DF, and thank you for sharing your story with us. Don't worry, in time, you will begin to see life through normal eyes, and all that delusional thinking will be just a bad memory.
Unhinged are we?

Trump prevented a Hillary rule. Trump really doesn't have to do more than that. It's win/win all around.

What he has done, and I must admit, to great effect, is show the world what a brainless and incompetent nitwit he really is. Trump is shaping up to be the worst president in US history, and most certainly the dumbest!
1. Nominated a new Supreme Court justice.

2. Illegal immigration has dropped significantly after he took office.

3. Cutting costs. Other presidents last Obama just gave blank checks and handed out money like it was free candy.

4. Completed a historical trip where he forced new allies with Saudi Arabia and strengthen our relationship with Israel

5. Significant job growth.

Get what? A large number of conservatives and Trump himself seem to be operating on a "if Obama did it, I hate it" platform. It's pretty hard to "get it". What are you for?
