Donald Trump and cult Republicans in denial about how the ugly tax bill will cause economic harm
Donald Trump says tax cuts for the rich will be 'Rocket Fuel' for fhe economy. Obviously, Trump is influenced by campaign donor.
#ElonMusk "SpaceX’s Starship 🚀💢explodes for 3rd time in a row, Musk promises more frequent launches" (This the "rocket fuel" Trump is talking about?)

Tangled in Trump budget’s weeds and pricked by its thornsOpinion letter published in the Boston Globe:
‘Rocket fuel’ for the economy, says Donald Trump and the Republican echo chamber, the GOP — with most Americans in the blast zone💥❗
The Republicans claim their big budget bill will be “rocket fuel” for the economy. But if this rocket takes off, who will get blasted in its wake?
But, everyday people have the most to lose. The Republicans have thrown in a few short-term tax credits to distract us, but that will barely make a dent for working families losing the SNAP benefits that helped them make ends meet, or communities whose local health centers have to close due to cuts to Medicaid and other funding. School districts will struggle even more to provide enough teachers, supplies, and training to meet the needs of their students.
Meanwhile, communities all across the country currently enjoying the benefits of renewable energy investments — jobs, cleaner air, and a safer, more resilient grid — will watch those dreams go up in smoke.
The rocket is on the launch pad. Citizens must speak up before it takes off. The only folks actually getting in the rocket are billionaires. The rest of us are the collateral damage inside the blast zone.
