#GOPTaxSCAMStories - from $800 refund last year to $5150 owed this year

Middle-class tax cut, my ass. @GOP/@realDonaldTrump's new tax plan can suck it. Last year we received a reasonable $800 refund. This year we owe $5150. #GOPTaxSCAMStories #TrumpTaxCut #trumpsucks #TrumpTaxScam

Must admit, having quite a bit of schadenfreude watching people who voted against their own interests because they thought others would suffer realize there's not so much winning. #GOPTaxScamstories #GOPTaxScam

will still vote for Trump despite getting dicked over. My best friend lives in Dallas and told me all of his colleagues are angry at the Taxes but still don't think Trump is at fault.

#GOPTaxSCAMStories I’m a Republican in CA. Just finished taxes. W/ $1,500 of add’l taxable income in 2018, I’m paying almost $5k more to IRS. WTF?! Thought it was gonna be bad, but not this bad. If Republicans are raising my taxes, I need to start voting for Dems in 2020.

How much you get back doesn't tell the story. A lot of what tRump's tax scam was was playing with the tax tables. W tried the same thing.
