EAT YOUR HEARTS OUT, DEMOCRATS – AT 11:09 A.M. ET:  Now wait.  Wasn't it the Democratic Party that was the "party of the people"?  Yeah, I remember that, sometime back in the 1930s.  Uh, I get the feeling that it's a little different today.  The Dems, led by Barack Hussein Obama Jr, don't even like the people, at least those without Ivy League educations.

The Trump administration, whether we always love the president or not, is producing results the Dems can only dream of, if they dream at all.  From the Washington Examiner: 

The number of companies offering employee bonuses, pay hikes, and increases in benefits in reaction to President Trump’s December tax reform victory is now over 100, with thousands of workers impacted and charities too.

Less than a day after Americans for Tax Reform put out an initial list of 40, it jumped to 52 as more company plans poured in.

And by the end of today, ATR’s John Kartch told Secrets that the list will hit over 100. "Small businesses from across the country are sending me news of their tax-cut bonuses, wage hikes, and charitable donations. Many of these were only announced internally. There is a broad and deep tsunami building," added Kartch, ATR's vice president of communications.

Kartch is asking that firms who have decided to spread the anticipated wealth let him know. “Please help ATR expand this list – if you know of any companies missing below, please send to jkartch@atr.org),” he put in his blog post.

Grover Norquist, ATR's president, said the bonuses are nullifying Democratic attacks on the GOP tax package. He told Secrets, "Every announcement of another company raising wages, hiring, paying bonuses, investing in America is another nail in the coffin of the Democrat attacks on the Republican tax cut. This drip, drip, drip is added to the daily reports on stock market gains, the bigger checks in pay envelopes and the jump in your 401K and IRA."
