President Donald Trump on Friday touted the Republican tax reform law and attacked House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.) for “going absolutely crazy” to oppose it.
While Trump singled out Pelosi, he added that not a single Democrat voted for the “big tax cuts.”
“Nancy Pelosi is going absolutely crazy about the big Tax Cuts given to the American People by the Republicans…got not one Democrat Vote! Here’s a choice. They want to end them and raise your taxes substantially. Republicans are working on making them permanent and more cuts!” Trump tweeted.

Pelosi has been an outspoken critic of the tax reform law; she has called benefits from the tax reform law “crumbs” and “so pathetic,” and she has referred to the law itself as “armageddon” and “BS.” She has also said the law is not in the best interest of the American people and that it only benefits big corporations.
