Poll: Most Americans now support GOP tax law

Hey, Gloom and Doomers.... more bad news....

The Republican tax cut law, which once appeared overwhelmingly unpopular, is now supported by a narrow majority of Americans, according to a SurveyMonkey poll published in the NY Times.

Support is at 51% overall (up from 37% in December), 89% among Republicans and 19% among Democrats.

Why it matters: Republicans see selling the tax cuts as perhaps the most important part of preserving the congressional majorities in the 2018 midterms.

Democrats can't even appreciate extra money in their wallets if it came from a Republican idea...

Right, I got a 1,300 dollar a year raise from the tax cut - what is not to like!

From this morning:

This is like the survey conducted by Reuters where they cannot find many people who have been positively effected by the recent tax cut. Of course this is no surprise since it doesn't go in effect until next month.

And now a bit over half way through "next month" the New York Times is reporting that tax cut, which once was overwhelmingly unpopular thanks to incessant negative coverage by the MSM, is now supported by a narrow majority of Americans (up from 37% in December to 51% today). I'll bet that number will continue to grow as more companies continue to give raises, bonuses and increase in benefits because of the tax cuts and as Americans continue filing their income taxes.

So, you're repeating what I say, just before I say it, eh?

well if your paycheck is a welfare check and you don't even pay taxes, you probably don't really care about the tax cuts.

Ah, I wouldn't get your hopes up. Another poll has the tax cuts at 44% favorable which is basically stagnant since January. Besides, most people aren't seeing enough of a difference in their checks for it to even matter. The wealthy and the Corporations on the other hand are making out like bandits, and it's all only going to cost us about $1.5 trillion added to the debt. Btw, democrats just took back 2 more seats from republicans in Conneticutt and New Hampshire last night which makes 39 in the last several months and even your buddy, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz looks to be in danger of losing his seat to a Democrat, oh my! So the tax cuts don't seem to be a factor at this point. Texas may be turning blue, CP.
