>Off the top of my head, Trump's corporate tax cuts in 2017 might be one of the most clearcut examples of something that benefitted corporations over individuals, was lobbied for by corporations, and was high profile enough to have public polling while being so blatantly unjustifiable that said polling demonstrated the public was clearly against it.
The 2017 tax cut law was extremely popular among republican voters, so I think that goes towards what I am saying.
- applfanboysbgon 6mo agoI suppose that was a bad example because Republican voters don't have a single policy they stand by, only party loyalty. eg. Republican voters were staunchly opposed to war in Iran until Trump did it and then support skyrocketed.
- Jtarii 6mo agoI agree that the US is in a strange place currently. The cult of personality Trump has hopefully goes away with him.
