I’m actually ok with that since dems have taken the House. Republicans have looked the other way for 2 years and let him do whatever he wanted. Not anymore. He will finally be held accountable
Trump rallies are the greatest & pay off producing a very important cushion of 53 senators.
Why 53 is a good number ?
It takes Collins and Murkowski out of position when they appose Trump's agenda. It also takes out Romney as the spoiler. A position John McCain played and Romney, IMO, was looking forward to playing. All three could be a no vote and the V.P would break the tie in critical votes to make 51 needed for judge and cabinet appointments assuming democrats continue to block vote against the Trump agenda.
You forgot about Cory Gardner of Colorado. He is clearly on the bubble along with a couple other Rs in blue states. Not to mention, of course, that the thrashing Trump earned for the GOP in the midterms has lowered his stock with them considerably. He may not find them so amenable.
Thanks for the advice but I have family and friends all over the country. And guess what, some saw a few hundred dollars more but not many. How many do you know who got thousands of dollars.
Now you admit, so did see savings, instead of none.

The tax cuts benefited the rich more than the middle class. Plus how are we going to pay for the added deficit. And yes our deficit matters. Republicans were supposed to be the deficit hawks. They just wimped out and gave in. Pathetic. And there are many who didn’t even see a tax cut.
... Maybe if you would get a job
Tax revenue is at an all time high. Government spending will be addressed in a major way in 2019. The Dems will oppose any cut in spending and will scream about starving children and massive unemployment. They will then claim the tax cuts are not working and there is no such thing as trickle down. Their solution will be to propose massive new unnecessary spending programs.
Pelosi has promised to repeal the tax cuts bit by bit.
Meh.
The rallies only keep the true believers true. The senators who were elected and appeared in them would have won anyway, because Trump was very selective in choosing which candidates to throw a rally for. He avoided those candidates he either didn't like or stood a poor chance of winning.
And most of all, none of them expanded his base support. 2020 will not be like the 2016 election. If Trump fails to gain more new voters in 2020, he'll lose. He's simply too unpopular to win again as a fresh surprise candidate.
The rallies are Trump's best tool, but he had better start using that tool more wisely if he wants to be re-elected.

Were you also one of those who said Trump had zero chance in 2016??

Some of you are so funny. Perhaps I'm part of the 1% who benefited. Trickle down economy does not work. It just makes the rich richer.
