From Talking Points Memo

Republican plans to repeal the Affordable Care Act without a replacement — which health care policy experts predict could cost 30 million people their health insurance — will also bring a major tax break for high-income Americans.

Beginning next January, everything done by the Executive and Legislative branches in Washington will include a major tax break for high-income Americans…and once they get Scalia's replacement seated, that'll be true of the Judicial branch, as well. If Congress votes to declare some date National Prune Day, there'll be a rider in there to make sure the folks who own WalMart and our President get another tax cut.

I don't know what some people thought they were getting when they voted in Trump and kept a Republican House and Senate but that's what they're gonna get.
