Tax cuts and the Rich.

That doesn't make any sense.

I agree his message makes no sense, but his entire movement is based in jealousy and grievance just the same. In fact, the more successful someone is, the less likely they are to be a Trump voter.

Why do they need tax cuts when they always use loopholes to get out of the taxes they have to pay? This is not rhetorical question.
And why take money from the safety nets to do it?

You see, the rich and famous are never satisfied with what they have and they always go for more. The tax cuts that
Trump will eventually execute on are almost 100% for corporations. What corporations do with it is mostly buy back
their own stock on the stock market. This benefits no one and does not create jobs. But, the executives of any corporation
own as lot of their company's stock. They get it from stock options and stock awards for special work, etc. So, if the stock
buy-back makes the stock go up 5%, it's a lot of money added up if somebody owns 500,000 shares becomes $2.5 million
with management doing nothing. A total waste of money. Trump will be the first in line to collect that tax benefit with his
corporation. It's your tax money going to a place where it will not do anything good.

I am not sure your source there, but Trump lost households with incomes over 100k and college graduates.

Even Fox News Exit Polling Analysis found that to be the case: https://www.foxnews.com/elections/2024/general-results/voter-analysis

In 2020, the Biden voting zip codes accounted for over 70% of the country's GDP with the average Biden voting zip code generating 11 times the GDP of the average Trump voting zip code: https://www.brookings.edu/articles/...an-for-the-nations-political-economic-divide/

Basically, the economy over the last 40 years or so has transitioned from a labor based economy to a knowledge based economy. This has allowed us to outpace most of the world in income and gdp growth, but at the same time, there are people that have been left behind that do not have the skills or aptitude for a knowlege based economy. Those people are Trump's strongest base of support.
