Why do journalists and other Democrats continue to repeat that Trump’s tax cuts are costing trillions and only helping the rich when those are obvious lies?

The answer is they lie about the economy for the same reasons they repeat the lies about Charlottesville. The truth doesn’t help their agenda and the only thing that is important to journalists and other Democrats is that they get their power back.

Receipts totaled $2,609 billion during the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, CBO estimates—$69 billion (or 3 percent) more than during the same period last year.

Individual income and payroll (social insurance) taxes together rose by $60 billion (or 3 percent).
Corporate income taxes increased by less than $1 billion (or less than 1 percent but still an increase).

So tax cuts produced MORE revenue, not less!!!

Democrats continually say that only the rich are benefitting from Trump’s policies but that is clearly another lie. Instead of calling out the lies most of the media just repeats them.

The recent jump in paychecks has come with an unusual characteristic, as workers at the lower end of the pay scale are getting the greater benefit.

What has set this rise apart is that it’s the first time during an economic recovery that began in mid-2009 that the bottom half of earners are benefiting more than the top half — in fact, about twice as much, according to calculations by Goldman Sachs.

We were repeatedly told that if Trump was elected the economy and the stock market would collapse and millions of jobs would be lost. The experts were 100% wrong.

We have been told that the tariffs would cause the economy to weaken and inflation to go up rapidly. The experts were 100% wrong.

We were told that when Trump got rid of the Obamacare individual mandate that prices would skyrocket. Instead they stabilized for the first time in years. The predictions were 100% wrong.

We were told that manufacturing jobs were gone for good. The predictions were 100% wrong.

We have been told for decades that we could not drill our way to energy independence and that we would soon be out of oil. The predictions were 100% wrong.

In 1922, we were told by the Washington Post and AP that the coastal cities and the Arctic ice would soon be gone. The predictions were 100% wrong.

We have all seen how our economy under the so called racist, xenophobe President has lowered the unemployment rates for blacks, Hispanics and Asians to all-time lows.

Under this so called sexist President women have done very well in the job market. Overall, unemployment rates are at a fifty-year low.

One of the greatest statistics is the unemployment rate for adults without a high school education is at a record low of 5.1%. The lowest it got during Obama’s term was 6.5% and the lowest under Clinton was 5.8%. and we are told that the Trump policies only benefit the rich.

With all the good news on the economy, Democrats keep telling the public how bad it is and how it will collapse soon. (they are certainly hoping that it collapses soon because all they care about is getting the power and money to the government from the people)

They tell the public, especially the young, that humans are destroying the earth, that there are too many humans and we are all going to die soon if Democrats don’t confiscate trillions more from the private sector and go back to a backwards quality of life.

I wonder why so many people get depressed and angry and take it out on other people or themselves.
When will the media ask other Democrats to tell the truth?
