Budget for the Plutocratic Oligarchs

The Trump Budget is out and as the Clay Bennett cartoon below demonstrates, you are royally screwed if you are not a rich, pampered plutocrat. While this budget will never pass Congress (even Reactionary Republicans know what it takes to win reelection), it is a sad testamanet to the hyprocrisy of the Trump Administration who promised his base their lives would be better. Unfortunately, his base is the group that would be the most adveresly affected by these plans. Look on the bright side. It is less than two years to the midterms and less than four years to the next Presidential vote.
