Trump’s new tax law could cost gamblers even if they lose money
Trump Tax Bill could affect gamblers
President Donald Trump’s approval rating fell to two of the three polls he has taken since his signature tax cuts and spending bill passed in Congress on July 3.
The final version of the bill, signed on July 4th, emerged after nearly four days of conflict among Senate Republicans, along with vast cuts to Medicare and declining funding for Medicare. The bill also extends tax cuts in 2017, expanding the immigration enforcement budget.
Gallup Poling shows that Trump’s approval rating at the six-month mark on both terms is simultaneously lower than any other modern president of the administration, at 38% and 40% for each period, respectively. According to the voting company, the average is 52% since John F. Kennedy in 1961.
Let’s take a look at the polls and averages released since the Trump bill passed.
