By Eric Mack | Sunday, 22 December 2024 10:57 AM ESTPresident-elect Donald Trump hailed Sunday as "the 7th Anniversary of the Trump Tax Cuts becoming Law," vowing to "deliver the largest tax cuts in the history of our country" by this date next year.
"Today is the 7th Anniversary of the Trump Tax Cuts becoming Law," Trump wrote in a Sunday morning Truth Social post before he was slated to speak at a salute to Arizona gathering for Turning Point Action, which will air live and in its entirety on Newsmax, starting at 12:30 p.m. ET. "'Happy Birthday!'
"Next year, we will deliver the largest Tax Cuts in the History of our Country," he added. "MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!"
Many of the provisions of the Tax Cut and Jobs Act signed by Trump in 2017 are scheduled to expire at the end of 2025. This means that more than $4 trillion in tax increases will take effect Jan. 1, 2026, charging next year's Congress and administration with the hefty task of grappling with the tax hikes.
Meanwhile, many of the provisions impacting businesses, including pass-through entities, are set to expire between 2025 and 2028.
The expiration of the cuts has the markets sinking as Congress is speaking out against extending the Trump tax cuts next year, according to Americans for Tax Reform's Grover Norquist on Newsmax.
"I think one of the dangers that people are looking at is that the tax cut may be delayed; it may get stopped," Norquist told Sunday's "Wake Up America Weekend." "We're one bad car accident away from having Democrat control of the House of Representatives, which means a $4 trillion tax increase. That's a lot of uncertainty."

But the question remains. Are you ok with exploding deficits under the GOP? Do deficits matter anymore? They used to...the GOP used to yammer on and on about them right up until trump added $8 trillion to the debt.Remember the Thomas Nine !! (10/02/2018)

I've said it before and I'll say it again, this crowd hates Trump more than they love America. And, they do not want to see him succeed.
I want the US to be better off in four years but I have absolutely no confidence, none, that the repubs in Congress and the incoming administration have the ability, moral compass or background intelligence to do so. There are way too many morally bankrupt individuals in positions of power and making ideological driven decisions. POOTWH and those that gave him money and voted for him broke our government.

So far, I think we have the following:
Canada the 51st state.
Panama Canal is ‘Murican.
Newfoundland is something or other but maybe a ‘Murican territory?
Denali is renamed Mount McKinley.

By Charlie McCarthy | Monday, 23 December 2024 09:06 AM EST
A New York Times opinion columnist and self-proclaimed "Never Trumper" conservative says it's time for President-elect Donald Trump's "perennial" critics "to drop the heavy moralizing and incessant doomsaying" concerning the next chief executive and his incoming administration.Bret Stephens, in a recent column, wrote that after nine years, he no longer considers himself a Never Trumper. He says that he and others like him never truly understood what made Trump popular and effective.
"Who, and what, is Trump?" Stephens asked. "He's a man and the symbol of a movement. The man is crass but charismatic, ignorant but intuitive, dishonest but authentic. The movement is patriotic — and angry."
Some of that anger, Stephens added, is "correctly directed at a self-satisfied elite that thinks it knows better but often doesn't."
Also, Stephens said, Trump understood during the 2024 campaign that "ordinary people" cared greatly about the high cost of living and the migrant crisis at the southern border.
The columnist basically said he and other Never Trumpers were hypocritical and ignorant when it came to Trump.
"How come so many who denounce Trump as a sexual predator were, 20 years earlier, Bill Clinton's steadfast defenders?" the columnist wrote on Dec. 17. "Why were the same people who demanded investigations into every corner of the Trump family's business dealings so incurious about the Biden family's dealings, like the curiously high prices for Hunter's paintings?"
In creating fear by insisting Trump could lead the U.S. into World War III, was too friendly with Russian President Vladimir Putin, and would ruin the Republican Party, Never Trumpers overstated the possibilities, according to Stephens.
"[We] missed that his working-class appeal would also reach working-class minorities — like the 48 percent of Latino male voters who cast their ballots for him last month," Stephens wrote. "And we were alarmed by Trump's protectionism and big-spending ways. But the economy mostly thrived under him, at least until the pandemic."
When it came to the Capitol attack on Jan. 6, 2021 – the No. 1 reason Stephens voted for Vice President Kamala Harris this year – Never Trumpers misread that, too.
"[I]f democracy means anything, it's that ordinary people, not elites, get to decide how important an event like Jan. 6 is to them. Turns out, not so much," Stephens wrote.
Never Trumpers never quite grasped that Americans also felt lied to by the left — see Biden's physical and mental decline — and saw the "torrent of Israel-bashing and antisemitism that emerged from the cultural left after Oct. 7," Stephens wrote.
Now, Stephens encourages other Never Trumpers to change their ways.
"So here's a thought for Trump's perennial critics, including those of us on the right," Stephens wrote to end his column. "Let's enter the new year by wishing the new administration well, by giving some of Trump's cabinet picks the benefit of the doubt, by dropping the lurid historical comparisons to past dictators, by not sounding paranoid about the ever-looming end of democracy, by hoping for the best and knowing that we need to fight the wrongs that are real and not merely what we fear, that whatever happens, this too shall pass."

A New York Times opinion columnist and self-proclaimed "Never Trumper" conservative says it's time for President-elect Donald Trump's "perennial" critics "to drop the heavy moralizing and incessant doomsaying" concerning the next chief executive and his incoming administration.Bret Stephens, in a recent column, wrote that after nine years, he no longer considers himself a Never Trumper. He says that he and others like him never truly understood what made Trump popular and effective.
"Who, and what, is Trump?" Stephens asked. "He's a man and the symbol of a movement. The man is crass but charismatic, ignorant but intuitive, dishonest but authentic. The movement is patriotic — and angry."
Some of that anger, Stephens added, is "correctly directed at a self-satisfied elite that thinks it knows better but often doesn't."
Also, Stephens said, Trump understood during the 2024 campaign that "ordinary people" cared greatly about the high cost of living and the migrant crisis at the southern border.
The columnist basically said he and other Never Trumpers were hypocritical and ignorant when it came to Trump.
"How come so many who denounce Trump as a sexual predator were, 20 years earlier, Bill Clinton's steadfast defenders?" the columnist wrote on Dec. 17. "Why were the same people who demanded investigations into every corner of the Trump family's business dealings so incurious about the Biden family's dealings, like the curiously high prices for Hunter's paintings?"
In creating fear by insisting Trump could lead the U.S. into World War III, was too friendly with Russian President Vladimir Putin, and would ruin the Republican Party, Never Trumpers overstated the possibilities, according to Stephens.
"[We] missed that his working-class appeal would also reach working-class minorities — like the 48 percent of Latino male voters who cast their ballots for him last month," Stephens wrote. "And we were alarmed by Trump's protectionism and big-spending ways. But the economy mostly thrived under him, at least until the pandemic."
When it came to the Capitol attack on Jan. 6, 2021 – the No. 1 reason Stephens voted for Vice President Kamala Harris this year – Never Trumpers misread that, too.
"[I]f democracy means anything, it's that ordinary people, not elites, get to decide how important an event like Jan. 6 is to them. Turns out, not so much," Stephens wrote.
Never Trumpers never quite grasped that Americans also felt lied to by the left — see Biden's physical and mental decline — and saw the "torrent of Israel-bashing and antisemitism that emerged from the cultural left after Oct. 7," Stephens wrote.
Now, Stephens encourages other Never Trumpers to change their ways.
"So here's a thought for Trump's perennial critics, including those of us on the right," Stephens wrote to end his column. "Let's enter the new year by wishing the new administration well, by giving some of Trump's cabinet picks the benefit of the doubt, by dropping the lurid historical comparisons to past dictators, by not sounding paranoid about the ever-looming end of democracy, by hoping for the best and knowing that we need to fight the wrongs that are real and not merely what we fear, that whatever happens, this too shall pass."
