This is literally from whitehouse.gov, I can't belive this is an official post from the executive branch. I feel like it needs to be shared for posterity. (infosec.pub)

Can someone check my math? I’m estimating Trumps first term tax cuts saved the top 1% at least $100b durning his first term. Trump is complaining about less than $9m being spent here. $9m is 0.009% of $100b. Did I get that all right?

But you aren’t a conservative. If you ever argued with one about this it will boil down to: taxes are theft, the rich are entitled to those tax cuts.

The only right they understand is might. Like a pinata it only trickles down after beating it with a stick.

I would argue they don't understand it, they just need to respond to it. they would be better at war if they did. they are beyond 'understanding'.
