Despite being a Bloody Pinko Commie(tm) myself, I couldn't help but giggle at the delicious hyperbole in these two cheap attempts at satire. Do bear with me.

Millennial Who Pays $0 In Taxes Outraged She Will Still Pay $0 In Taxes

New York Times Reports 18 Billion People Will Die From Republican Tax Plan

The Onion-like cartoonishness of these two stories was so delightful, I squeed with progressive glee. "Gawd, this is sooo me!", I said to myself.

But seriously. The Trump tax plan is a disaster for middle class Americans. And it may've simply been the GOP's way to flip the bird at their political nemeses. Nothing more. (Oh, and their way of showing Americans that they can do whatever they fucking please, and there's nothing anyone can do about it - because people are either too lazy to be bothered to counter them at the polls, or conversely, just too stupid to see through their shenanigans). Either way, it's a classic shoot-maself-in-da-foot case for America.

Oh by the way, I didn't believe this was possible, but Trump's tax turns out to be even less popular than the Douche-in-chief himself. Go figure.

Aaanyway. Can't wait for that trickle-down magic.
