As Trump prepared to take the oath, the thousands who’d flocked to the Mall extended less than half the distance to the Washington Monument. Attendees reported short lines at several security gates. Morning commuters to Washington talked of nearly empty cars on the D.C. subway.
I've got to admit that I am happy with his tax plan. As long as I keep our income under $105k. whatever part of that is long term stock gains is tax free. I may not have voted for him, but his tax plan helps me smile a bit about him being elected.
There's always some ray of sunshine, even during the darkest of times.
Republican presidents usually drive up the debt more than Dems (I did say usually), but they love to cut taxes to lull the voters into compliance.
So, yeah... we will get a goodish tax break over here. We have to keep ours on the high side, but that should be simple enough to accomplish. It's interesting how he's not giving a break to the mid-high range. Well, I guess we need to see what Congress has to say about this.
I'd love for them to tackle the AMT. We get hammered by that one every year.

Obama set a record the first time with good reason. 1.8M won't be broken any time soon.
But, let's put things into perspective:
Obama got 1M or so the second time.
Trump early estimates say 900k which is well above the average.
Clinton had 250k, so he must have been quite unpopular by this lame left spin reasoning.

Trump is liked well enough to be elected, and that's what is driving the left bonkers.
