The effect on the middle income earners was only to the lower and not the upper end. These are people who had few deductions to begin with.The Democrats and Republicans differ on taxes as a general rule. They do agree that the poorest shouldn't pay at all. The thinking is the poor don't have the money as is and we should not tax what little they do have.
This has been the general rule since Reagan. After that the tax cuts were passed and deductions were also cut. I ended up paying more than before.
Some people here don't know we could deduct for gasoline tax and sales tax. They were cut out and any taxes to the State or local governments were cut.
Trump's taxes were for the average American taxpayer. They made out and were the target. If someone was above average they lost.
