    First @realDonaldTrump signs a massive $2 trillion tax giveaway that benefits the wealthiest 1% of Americans, then he tells hard-working federal employees that he can't afford their expected pay raise in 2019. Workers deserve better from their President.https://cnn.it/2omI3hN

        Good; the 1% pay the most taxes and deserve the biggest decrease; AND: the average govt worker makes twice what the average citizen makes; plus perks and everything else; they do not need any increases. SO; the Donald is right on the mark like always.

        Uh, no. Federal civilian workers with no more than a high school education earned 34 percent more on average than similar workers in the private sector, but federal workers with a professional degree or doctorate earned 24 percent less. That's far from twice as much, pal.

        Plus, those comparisons include food service and other minimum wage workers in the private sector who could also use a decent wage increase at a time the top 1% you defend are raking in more profits than ever recorded in history.

        Thank you Rep. Adams. I believe if this administration (I use this word with great contempt) would curtail its golfing and other expensive activities its Cabinet has indulged in, there would be $$ to go round.

        Seriously - if anyone thought Trump would support anyone other than the rich, you have to be dumber than a rock. Trump is in the @Whitehouse for only one reason - to make laws that put more money in the pockets of the rich while walking on the backs of hard working Americans.

        Nice misleading tweet. Yes the tax reform benefited the top 1% of Americans. It also benefited millions of other Americans as well. Are you opposed to millions of Americans having more disposable income?

        Giving tax breaks to the wealthiest and denying tax breaks/pay raises to federal employees is horrendous!

        The 1% also hire the most people and spend their money putting others to work. They have a lot of forms that need to file and the Federal workers handle that giving them a job so they can get paid. The average American person is tired of paying too much in taxes.
