    The one and only “accomplishment” I can think of in Trump’s four year term is passing the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act at the end of 2017. Literally the first (and only) thing the guy does in office is pass massive tax legislation giving a gigantic sloppy blowjob to the real estate industry. There’s so mcuh in there for RE, it’s so transparent. Didn’t build a wall, didn’t persecute gay/trans via legislation or whatever, didn’t drain the swamp, but massive tax legislation.

      The “culture war” stuff is just their bread & butter for the base that will get them motivated to vote, but their real priority will always be making more money for the investor/owner/donor class. I’m sure this made Trump a heap of money as well, but apparently he needed that sweet sweet classified documents payout on top of that.
