Says it all

The red represents the Trump tax cuts. The blue represents the COVID Relief bill. Two very different visions of who the government is working for.

It's a tale of 2 reconciliations. TCJA gave to the wealthy, the American Rescue Plan will give to those who really need it. On @Morning_Joe, I discussed why the 2020 election might be the most consequential election since FDR in 1932. pic.twitter.com/cbUsKF9Ezh

The top 20% of households received 65% of the benefit from Trump’s tax cuts. The bottom 20% received 1%. On @Morning_Joe, I showed how the American Rescue Plan flips the script in favor of those closer to the bottom. pic.twitter.com/mAD7uO3XUn

I really don’t want to hear any more about Trumpian “populism.” It’s only populist in the demagogic sense. On policy, they are just the same old plutocrats.
