Reaganomics? He wants to bring it back?

Facebook is a twitter about some speech he gave today about 'his' (we all know what I mean by 'his'. I HATE saying or writing that name!) tax plan.
Apparently, "he" wants to bring back Reaganomics.
Please tell me this is wrong! Please tell me that the repukes are getting all giddy for nothing!

If they are right, please tell me we are getting more of our like minded people registered to vote?

That is what the repukes are saying that the orange slug is modeling his tax plan after. They are saying he said it during a speech today. I have not found it yet ,but that sounds like such a dumb idea that may be true.

Trump doesn't care about policy. So he hires GOPers who flatter his ego, and let's them do their thing which is the 36+ years of reaganomics. Last time we had a bout of that trillions of dollars were stripped out of the economy with the great recession. Make America Suffer Again! Seems the more appropriate slogan for Trump the Insult Dog's campaign.

keep chipping away at it.

But that orange slug wants to restart it in full again. That means all the chipping will be wiped away.

He gave it PEDs.

Sad part is that his minions will, I'm sure, think that it's something new and shiny.
