    The first Republican tax bill was a hit-and-run job. With this second tax bill, Republicans backed up and ran over working families again.pic.twitter.com/W0j2AeOoKO

        Rich people make lots and lots of money by using the infrastructures and institutions our taxes pay for. Giving them tax cuts means they don't carry their fair share of the burden, and we make up for it with cuts to Social Security and Medicare.

        Who’s trying to cut social security and Medicare? Democrats like to say republicans are, but what bills are the republicans trying to pass to make cuts?

        During elections GOP always say Dems will raise your taxes while GOP cut taxes ONLY for the top 1% which raises the deficit. Besides GOP wanting to take away your healthcare. Don’t listen to talk. #BlueWave

        And then he robbed social security to fund it. Our social security, not theirs. Don't forget their was a penalty for not having it which Trump got rid of. Damn crooks who don't work for us.

        There’s a Republican candidate in MI telling voters that the Democrat candidate wants to take away their Medicare! We need to educate voters that if you rely on programs designed by Democrats, you need to vote for the correct party on Election Day!

        What can we stil do to protect the midterms against hacking? First, we can micromanage county election officials to provide sufficient paper backups for touchscreen voting equipment and e-poll books, which are vulnerable to denial-of-service attacks. 1/ pic.twitter.com/zREPhsckxU

        You have to "pay taxes", to actually get a "tax cut".
