12) Slashed and capped SALT deductions for high-tax blue states, letting the fine folks of those states finally see what Democratic leadership and wasteful spending for decades has got them. They haven't ever had to really feel their 10-14% state tax rate because the rest of America has subsidized them. Now they get to direct their anger towards their elected Democratic leaders. (I really like this one.)

Love him or hate him... President Trump is defying the norm and getting his agenda accomplished at an unprecedented rate... despite 91% negative news coverage, and an ongoing coup attempt by the deep state. Truly astonishing.

Here's to you, POTUS.

How they were able to get #1 in the tax bill after the summer debacle is beyond me, but its a start.

I had heard rumors of eliminating the Obamacare Mandate. Were they actually able to do that?

In this full employment economy..people can afford to but their own insurance.. if they do not insure themselves... they can look in the mirror and blame themselves... not our beloved President Trump!

I don't disagree but what happens when these people end up in general hospital with sickness that could have been avoided with preventative check ups? Who will pay their medical costs?

I'll tell you who..........the tax payers.

Fit. I just don't think we can force these people to insure themselves. If they refuse to insure themselves maybe they should only receive the most basic palliative care.
