We lost the House partially because of this issue.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This is obviously true, and is not something we should hide from.

In many close districts, in states such as CA and NJ in particular, I think it definitely swung seats to RAT.

Unfortunately, the Trump administration had to exercise some "Triage" in order to get the all-important corporate tax cuts. It is unfortunate, but high-tax states which are "Blue" in Presidential politics ... but not necessarily at every House District level ... took the brunt.

The only solution, as I see it, is to elect enough MAGA Republicans to reduce individual taxes at both state and federal levels.

I do not see President Trump ever allowing the reversal of the corporate tax cuts; HOWEVER, I am sure he would sign a FURTHER TAX CUT that returns your deductions ... if it ever came to his desk.

Not to slide this ... but the massive (but quiet!) revamping of the Federal Judiciary by POTUS may allow him to start cutting government spending below the levels of Congressional appropriations ... shutting down programs, eliminating regulatory functions, securing the border, tapping the brakes on Medicaid/Obamacare and generally shrinking the workforce. So that may help in the long run, as far as getting future tax cuts including return of your deductions.

According to a very close friend of mine who is a political analyst, we lost 18 seats.
