Theft of two Supreme Court seats. Presidential election 2016 in which Russian dictator is big winner. Tax-code "reform" that wasn't.
Tax rates were lowered as a handout to GOP donors, multinational corporations. Losers-everyone else. Lost federal revenue used as excuse to ignore infrastructure, health care, education and to threaten loss of our Social Security again.
