If Trump and the GOP extend their 2017 tax cuts, the top 1% will make out like bandits — taking home an extra $165 per day.
But the bottom 60% will get shafted — getting only an extra $1.10 per day in exchange for massive cuts to Medicaid and SNAP.
It's reverse Robin Hood.

The federal civilian worker payroll totaled $271 billion in 2022.
The annual cost of permanently extending Trump's tax cuts that primarily benefited rich individuals? $400 billion.
Keep this in mind as Trump and DOGE lay off thousands of federal workers.
