Republican policies are like a sugar boost-it lasts for a bit then you have a slump. Trump tax cut and reform was like Reagan’s and Bush’s: sugar high. Short lasting benefit to middle and lower income to suckered them into thinking Republicans care about them but the tax benefits either expire in a year or two as Trump or Bush’s did, or they are systemic and cause issues far longer as Reagan’s did by greatly reducing progressive taxation and beginning a 40 year slide into widening income inequality and a new Gilded Age!
