Who believes this pile of crap?
(CNN)
President Donald Trump told a group of Democratic senators Tuesday that he'd be a "big loser" if the Republicans' plan to overhaul the tax system is signed into law, multiple people with direct knowledge of the call told CNN.
Trump, who said he made his assumption based on a conversation with his accountant, also said the GOP's plan to repeal the estate tax was a toss-in because the plan is "just so bad for rich people."

The one piece of Trump's tax history that we know about had him paying about $38 million in taxes.
$31 million was AMT.
The bill gets rid of the AMT.
Enough said.

I would not get very worked up about this yet. The bills from the House and Senate are very different and will have to go to a committee for the differences to be worked out. Let see what they have when finished.

Seriously? We've seen both the Senate and House versions. Neither bill would likely be a "loser" for Trump.
He's obviously lying.
Of course, if Trump would release his tax returns we could calculate the effects of either bill exactly.
