A jubilant Donald Trump hosted Republican leaders at the White House for a victory lap after the US Congress passed a sweeping tax cut plan, declaring: “We are making America great again.”
“We broke every record,” the president said, thanking congressional leaders for driving through what he called “the largest tax cut in the history of our country.”
House Speaker Paul Ryan, in turn, credited Trump’s “exquisite presidential leadership” for the success of the contentious plan, assailed by Democrats as a giveaway to the wealthiest that risks blowing a hole in the national debt.
