So the White House story is now:
“We didn’t mean to threaten Harvard, because we didn’t mean to send the threatening letter we sent, but when Harvard rejected the threats we made but didn’t mean to make, we decided to threaten them twice more.”
The country is now run by thugs and idiots.

Trump wants to extend his tax cuts for rich individuals, which would add $4.6T to the deficit.
But he wants to go even further, cutting the corporate tax rate to 15%.
It's yet another absolutely shameless giveaway.
