Who would have thought he would do the same thing he did in his first term again?
Less than half of the voters, apparently.
Something tells me most of his voters have no idea what he did last time
They were all trying to figure out why Obama wasn't in the oval office for 9/11
Trump: "Hannibal Lecter is a fine man." jerks off two dicks
Trump supporters: "😍😍 He's gonna fix the economy and make America great again!"
Also no idea what he’s doing now
This is nothing, wait until the Trump tariffs kick in and everything gets more expensive.

The price at which it becomes a felony won't charge. You'd have to do it in organized groups like the raids in LA a number of years ago.
Can't wait for shitty plyboard furniture to be marked up 489% because we got to import them from China/Vietnam or other SE countries.
Like seriously, what even gets made in the US that is reasonably affordable and is of a decent quality.
"A small price to pay to own the libs!" the drones say as they make boiled leather soup.
Don't forget deport immigrants (arguably increasing food costs). BIL sent me an article about 400+ illegals getting deported Tuesday night or something. Weird, I thought there were hundreds of thousands of them. They could only get that many? "The majority were criminals" Aight, cool. Keep those resources going and start processing the years and years of rape kits left waiting for testing. Start getting those citizens too, champ. Or are we only after the brown criminals? Hmm....
Well, dear leader said gas is gunna be cheap so you can drive to the grocery store and look longingly at the food you can no longer afford to buy and see the empty shelves of cheap eggs. Good thing, since you will need the extra money you will save by not buying food to pay more taxes so the rich won't have to.
Nobody in the US knows how marginal rates and progressive tax brackets work, you can sell the fools on anything and just blame the IRS because it’s the most convenient incarnation of what people hate.
It makes me angry when I see people talk about how getting a raise would be bad for them because it would put them in a new tax bracket.
Like dude, no, it won't be worse. Thats not how that works.
I mean even this post got it wrong, your taxes go up until about $1 mil, not $300k.
But the cuts could start benefiting you at the $300k bracket relative to before. What's the actual change?
Because the way marginal taxation works if you make 300k you paid all those extra brackets tax hikes before you got to 300k and started seeing the lower marginal rate.
So to see your impact you add every changed number from the left up to your income, that’s your impact.
Yes it takes a positive turn at 300k, but you’re already deep in the whole and don’t turn to actually positive until around the final bracket.
They raise taxes on the middle class to make people hate taxes so they vote for smaller government.
They’ve been doing it since the 80s. God how I wish our politics weren’t in a death spiral. It’s so boring.
Educate the next generation. My kids demonize taxes based off a short video but then get a quick education. Taxes aren't the devil, the rich dudes who aren't paying their share are causing your burden to be higher. Billionaires aren't always the enemy, but look at Amazon wages and it's an easy way to show them that hoarded wealth generally comes from keeping others down. It takes a bit longer, but elders are the only entity that can counter the bullshit they're being fed.
No guys it's cool it'll trickle down any day now just wait
Picture is incorrect. The bottom glass on the right should be cracking.
Well, something is trickling down but for some reason it smells like piss.
I don't think I can afford to prop up the wealthy any more than I already am doing now. Guess I'll need to get a fourth job to help pay off Musk and company tax relief.
Work those bootstraps
Graph is from October 2024 this isn’t some new version that was just released either
Correct. And it is still current.

If you look at "breakdown of tax propoals by category" note that it doesn't account for inflation, for example giving a reduction to everyone for tax cuts. But in the real world, that's not how it works. Tax cuts that are paid for with deficit spending like these are essentially zero-sum because the price of everything will have to increase to account for spending power. So in other words, it's even worse for everyone but the 1% than indicated.
Clown Country
but at least now baby jesus will stop shedding tears because transgenders and intersex people can now be labeled with their correct biblical gender
that will make the poor religious folks happy at least, right? they don't need grocerries, baby jesus is happy the transgenders are suffering! delicious!
It's the MAGA way.. they base their self worth on how much the people they hate are suffering.
This is just peak brainworm. What does someone making nearly a million dollars a year even do with an extra 7k?? Make their scroodge McDuck vault a little deeper? Doesn't matter how deep it is, you still can't dive into it like a pool. Idiots.
No, you totally can dive into a pile of gold and swim in it and they should definitely all try it. It works better the higher the diving board is.
they use dollar bills instead of gold coins, you can get a cushy landing and swim through it pretty well.
Just work harder and become a billionaire smh
/s
That's on top of the increase starting now as well.
The tax plan of 2017 cut taxes for everyone, but starting last year they went up for anyone not making 300k or more.
Is this from the extention of last tax cuts that are still active but set to expire unless renewed? Or a new proposal on top of that policy?
Is there a source on this? Not that I don't believe it, I'm sure this is exactly what's going to happen, but if I bring it up in conversation saying "I saw it in a meme" will deflate the argument.

The last two times I’ve been to Costco they’ve been out of eggs. One of these days I’m expecting the Cash & Carry to be out of eggs too. Then the Rosaures, the Safeway, and the mini mart too. Just think of the savings in not buying any eggs at all!
“You get bird flu! You get bird flu! Bird flu for everyone!”
-Trump FDA soon
Even if we're just talking eggs, they're up about $1.50 per dozen in my area and Der Blöderfürher has only been in office three days.
