oh! "This will benefit the 2%, while the 1% burns the earth to the ground"

This is like Republicans claiming that they're doing everything for small businesses, when the reality is they're doing things for contract workers who more often are just being forced into contracts that wouldn't exist without the lax regulatory reality and are abused thereof.

"This will benefit the little guy (assuming they survive their cancer diagnosis)"

I just heard this last night: buried in the "support for small business" was the repeal (or effectively neuteringO of the Corporate Transparency Act's Financial Crimes Enforcement Network.

https://www.wbur.org/onpoint/2026/09/10/treasury-launder-mon...

That program had a simple ask of every corporation doing business in America: who really owns it? No more hiding of ill gotten gains and laundering through US real estate, etc (hint: anybody come to mind who might do a lot of that)?.

They killed it. To "protect small businesses".

The Trump Regime is pure corruption.
