"Because all the other tax cuts for the rich simply weren't big enough to do the trick."Exactly.Like the "Twilight Zone" episode in which a dissident in a future totalitarian state is about to be executed on television pour encourager les autres, but first he gets interviewed."You don't learn, do you?" he asks. "History teaches you nothing.""Oh, but history teaches us a great deal!" says the 1984 O'Brien type conducting the last interview. "Hitler, Stalin and the rest, their mistake was not in going too far. Their mistake was that they did not go far enough!"Until Donald Trump is gone and the Republican Party gets a sharp lesson in how far it can't go, looks as though we're all living in the Twilight Zone. And down the rabbit hole with Alice too.

Yes, and if not for the blue (city) part of New York and other east coast elite locales (MA to give only one example) and CA supporting all those deep (should I have said derp?) red places, they'd be truly fucked. Yes, MS, LA, AL, etc., I'm talking about you, assholes.

Only hoping it was prescience: Remember Will Ferrell/Kevin Hart flick, Get Hard, about rich guy prepping for a stint in the slammer? Exec. Producer was our own Secty. Mnuchin. I suggest popcorn night for staff, cabinet & Congressional leadership in WH screening room.
