MSNBC: Trump and His Family Could Save More than $1 Billion with GOP Tax Bill

‘After years of rough drafts and blueprints, House Republicans have actually passed an actual tax reform bill’

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
MATTHEWS: "Welcome back to “Hardball.” After years of rough drafts and blueprints, House Republicans have actually passed an actual tax reform bill, if you want to call it that. It’s actually the Trump Tower tax cut. A new analysis by NBC news shows that under the house bill, President Trump and his family could save more than $1 billion on this baby. Trump took a rare trip up to Capitol Hill to pressure his fellow Republicans to get the job done, of course, and the bill sailed through the house with only 13 Republicans voting against it. However, a new poll signals potential danger for the president and his party. A majority of voters do not support this bill. 61%, three in five, think it mainly benefits the rich, which it does. Meanwhile, over at Senate side, Republicans are full steam ahead with their own version of the tax overhaul, which according to another report would give large tax cuts to millionaires, while raising taxes on American families who make between 10,000 and 75,000 a year. That’s in the average range."
