Wut?

If they had to cut medicaid and the ACA both job creators and great lifesavers for many, than those tax cuts for tge 1% are class theft. The 1% by definition have enough. The whole Big Beutiful Scam bill is ~4.5 Trillion over 10 years. And the cuts are pushed into the later part of the decade beyond the sooner health cuts in addition to the government jobs culling. The greedy wealthy are hurting the rest of us is actually an easier sell than hey help these needy people. We need to push the serious detail that these tax cuts for the already comfortable slow the economy as they can't and dont spend their money quick and local the way most of us do. The wealthy shuffle it amonst their inbred circle trading art, extra homes, property and other luxury
items and often in far away spaces later on. Joe Public can understand tge 1% didn't need extra if it means cuts to job creating services like health care, research.
