Trump's Betrayal: How He's Undermining His Working-Class Base Openly

As president, Donald Trump has brazenly enriched himself, prompting his Republican allies to adopt an unprecedented rationale: he’s transparent about it. Trump and his party diminish the wealth of their supporters boldly. The recently passed “Big Beautiful Bill,” reflecting his economic policies, epitomizes this trend on a grand scale. Analysts from the Penn-Wharton Budget Model reveal that the richest 10% of Americans receive 70% of the benefits, while the bottom 10% experience financial losses. Furthermore, the bill threatens to inflate the national debt by over $3 trillion, imposing higher interest burdens on taxpayers and increasing the probability of a financial crisis. This phenomenon is astonishing considering Trump garnered support mainly from voters earning under $50,000, showcasing a startling contradiction in his party's approach to economic policy.
