Gaetz doesnโ€™t give a shit if heโ€™s confirmed.

He lives for the fact everyone is talking about him.

He wants to be Governor of Florida.

New analysis by CAPAF provides rough estimates of who benefits and shows that Trumpโ€™s plan to cut the corporate tax rate down to 15 percent would:

Give the largest 100 U.S. companies (the Fortune 100) a total estimated annual tax cut of $48 billion. They reported $1.1 trillion in profits in their last annual report.
Give 10 of the largest U.S. companies alone, including Meta, Comcast, and JPMorgan Chase, a total estimated annual tax cut of $23 billion. They reported more than $520 billion in profits.
Give the five largest U.S. oil companiesโ€”Exxon Mobil, Chevron, Marathon Petroleum/ConocoPhillips, Phillips 66, and Valero Energyโ€”an annual total estimated tax cut of $2.5 billion. They reported more than $90 billion in profits.
Give the five largest drug makersโ€”Johnson & Johnson, Merck, Pfizer, AbbVie, and Bristol Myers Squibbโ€”an annual total estimated tax cut of $3.1 billion. They reported over $50 billion in profits.
Give five of the largest Wall Street banksโ€”JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Citigroup, Wells Fargo, and Goldman Sachsโ€”an annual total estimated tax cut of $4.1 billion. They reported nearly $113 billion in profits.
Give five of the largest grocery companiesโ€”Kroger, Costco, Albertsons, Target, and Walmartโ€”an annual total estimated tax cut of nearly $1.7 billion. They reported over $29 billion in profits.

Trump wants to extend his tax cuts for rich individuals, which would add $4.6T to the deficit.

But he wants to go even further, cutting the corporate tax rate to 15%.

It's yet another absolutely shameless giveaway.

Itโ€™ll disappear from our history books.

Just like the 1921 Tulsa Massacre.

MAGA: I voted for Trump because of the economy and prices being too high.

Also MAGA: what's a tariff?
