None of your shit shows effect till next year, Trumpsterfire.

Otherwise, nice fucking job reading the speech someone wrote for you off the teleprompter without major incident.

Tonight he became the President.

My take on this is that it really undermines their core premise.

Tax cut savings that get invested in the stock market or otherwise improve the stock price do nothing directly for job creation.

It will be telling what happens to stock prices in the month after the tax plan gets killed.

PS; Trump is an arrogant asshole. Just wanted to throw that in there lest you think my analysis was incomplete.
