12 Ways for Trump to Improve the Tax Code and Make His Tax Cuts Permanent
Adam N. Michel The goal of the 2025 tax extensions should be to keep tax rates low and meet calls for additional pro-growth tax cuts, such as a lower corporate tax rate and permanent investment expensing.

Return of the Neocons—Trump Appoints Staunch Supporters of America’s Forever Wars to Serve in His Cabinet
Going into the November 5th election, I predicted if the Democrats didn’t cheat, President-Elect Donald J. Trump would win 31 states with 312 votes and win the popular vote by 3% and the GOP would hold the House and pick up the Senate and that is exactly what happened.

The Election Wasn’t a Realignment—or a “Mandate”
(NA) There is a lot of talk about how the election result is a great realignment and/or a “mandate” for Trump’s policies. The available evidence doesn’t support such notions. When all votes are fully counted, it looks like Trump will have won the popular vote by 1.5 points and have 1-4 point margins in the 7 swing states. That’s not the kind of large margin of victory typically associated with realignment elections in which large blocs of voters […]
