This isn’t a tax cut - it’s a deduction cut.

Very well said.

And as many of us feared, the Senate version is even worse than the House version on how it screws over the middle class, home owners, etc.

Two days ago, Politico reported that Trump's aides were telling the rich donors and corporations not to worry about the House version, because it is the Senate version "that really matters." The same Senate version that even eliminates the lousy $10K cap on property taxes that isn't even indexed for inflation.

Unlike others here who say it has no chance of passing, I think it probably will pass in some fashion. Washington and the stupid GOP always seem to do the wrong thing, and they will find a way to burn us all again.

They should rename this: "The Mark Zuckerberg Wants Lower Taxes So You Have To Pay More Act"

Some analysts are calling Tuesday’s election results a “blue shift”.

As more and more taxpayers awaken to the fact that this tax package is not just a tax shift but a tax SHAFT expect that trend to continue.

The GOP can kiss the midterms goodbye if they pass any version of these bills. And expect a 1-term Trump Presidency.

And I write this as a MAGA Trump supporter.

Why don’t they just reinstate the Bush tax cuts that were allowed to expire?
They act like all we want is a simple postcard when all we really want is an actual tax cut.
