This is what Trump and the GOP consider a "Victory":

1/ Increasing the deficit by $1.5+ trillion, paving the way for massive spending cuts on Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, education, veterans programs and more,
2/ giving the largest tax cut to corporations (from 35% to 21%!) which will lead to higher profits for shareholders and not higher wages for workers,
3/ exacerbating our already staggering income inequality with greater tax breaks for the wealthy than low-income and middle class Americans (83% of the benefits go to the top 1%),
4/ reopening the Alaskan National Wildlife Refuge to oil drilling, creating new incentives for corporations to send more jobs overseas and keep money in foreign tax havens,
5/ providing new tax benefits for pass-through companies that don't pay out wages or create jobs (such as real estate investors),
6/ imposing higher taxes on an already devastated Puerto Rico, increasing the earnings of customer-abusing Wells Fargo by 18%,
7/ disproportionately hurting taxpayers in Blue states and cities like New York and San Francisco (they "deserve it"),
8/ preserving the carried interest loophole (which members of both parties and Trump himself have said for years needs to go),
9/ revealing that their years of decrying increases to the national deficit were all a sham, doing nothing to actually simplify the tax code like they promised,
10/ and building in new loopholes and gimmicks to enrich their wealthy donors, the Trumps, and THEMSELVES.
