        The effective corporate rate is already LESS THAN HALF than when America was "great". But who needs history when there is money to be made?pic.twitter.com/GLid6RCHOd

        It hasn't worked for the last forty years! Why would cutting business taxes even more suddenly start to benefit middle class workers?

        Serious question: does Trump know what Middle class means? He prob thinks a fam making $250k/yr is on the poverty line. 😒

        nope. not at all. if it doesn't address cost burden (which it doesn't), then it isn't helping middle class.

        The old trickle down theory.Never worked before, why would it work now? Trickle down is the whole reason why Trump's voters are impoverished

        Businesses could use $ to expand, hire more ppl, raise the wages. Or, use it to raise CEOs salaries, bonuses, etc. (?) 🇺🇸
