"In American politics, the southern strategy was a Republican Party electoral strategy to increase political support among white voters in the South by appealing to racism against African Americans.[1][2][3] As the Civil Rights Movement and dismantling of Jim Crow laws in the 1950s and 1960s visibly deepened existing racial tensions in much of the Southern United States, Republican politicians such as presidential candidate Richard Nixon and Senator Barry Goldwater developed strategies that successfully contributed to the political realignment of many white, conservative voters in the South that had traditionally supported the Democratic Party to the Republican Party.[4] It also helped push the Republican Party much more to the right.[4]"
So, that's why the deep south, former Confederate states, suddenly flipped parties. It's not because they had a change of heart and now love blacks and other minorities, lol.
And yet, at the end of the day, he's still President.
You do realize the guy is supposed to work for us, don't you? This isn't high school anymore, Trumpeters. It isn't just about Trump getting elected. He has to DO SOMETHING to earn his keep.
Oh, Trump is going to get a bump from this tax bill, for sure. It won't be in the ratings, but he doesn't care about the ratings as much as he cares about the bump to his earnings. This tax "cut" is going to yugely impact the earnings of the rich, and he is right in that category. We peons may see a few bucks more temporarily, but the rich are going to see it permanently.
Just wait till the facts of this act shake out, then we will all see how it really was crafted.
The Trump tax cut is unpopular because most Americans instinctively know it's fiscally irresponsible to borrow $2 Tril from the future to fund tax cuts that mostly benefit those who already have plenty of money.
You don't like him anyway. Your polls are meaningless, and those paying too much tax finally got a break.
Envy of successful people won't help you become one!

True, but Congress and Trump have been crowing about the tax bill for the last week or so, with intense media coverage. His approval numbers haven't budged.
His signing of the tax bill certainly did not move the markets.
