Mr Trump flew out of Washington on Friday and headed to his Mar-a-Lago club where he will spend the holidays. It was there, according to CBS, that the President admitted something most Americans already suspect – that better-off will get most from the Republican tax package. The news network said that directing his comment to friends dining nearby at the club, Mr Trump said: “You all just got a lot richer.”
The nonpartisan Tax Policy Centre predicted that nearly three-quarters of the savings from the tax overhaul would go to the top 20 per cent of earners, those making more than $149,000. More than half the savings would go to the top one percent, people who earn more than $732,800.
The bill has modest public support and a majority of Americans appear to realize it will help the most wealthy.
Trump's approval rating at the end of the first year is lowest for any president in American history. In the next year's midterm election, more Democrats will unseat Republicans. Is Trump going to have a change in how he performs in 2018?
As to what to expect from Trump in 2018, here is the link to how the Independent of UK sees it.
