>>The US government publishes revenue collection figures. Those collections have greatly increased. Are you saying these figures are lies?<<
Nope. I am saying that under both the Reagan and Bush43 revenue was less than if taxes had not been cut.
Look at the growth trend in revenues until the 2000 tax cuts - there is no reasonable way to claim the tax cuts increased revenues. The red area is reduced revenue.

Photo editing? Colored in a block of red over the title. What a liar chart! No one makes a chart like that and publishes it, least of all the Heritage Foundation.
Both Reagan and Bush came into their first term on the heels of a recession.
Do you not remember Carter’s malaise of 1980? Or the dot-com and market collapse of 2000?
