When Republicans passed tax cuts for literally MILLIONS OF PEOPLE, and multiple “evil” corporations were announcing raises and bonuses for their employees, haters like Joy Reid were working overtime to pretend these were horrible things and that it was a PR stunt.
Guess they’re trying to save face after spending a full year bitching and moaning about how Trump and the GOP only care about rich people.
Look at this stupid:
Corporate PR offices are hard at work, having demanded this exorbitant tax cut from Republicans. Watch for lots of Christmas bonuses and charitable donations (which of course they're doing before the bill guts the charitable deduction) and missives to reporters about the above.

Joy. Put the Twitter down, Joy.
And we thought Ebenezer Scrooge was a crabby ass.
From her tweet, you’d think the GOP had just raised taxes and corporations were going to fire a bunch of people; of course, that’s what happens when Democrats are in power but you catch our drift.
Everything the GOP does in Joy’s mind is bad, even when it’s excellent.
Stop the carnage. https://t.co/MWVubk8NXx

So many bodies in the streets, killed by tax cuts, raises and bonuses!
THE HUMANITY.
Oh, and if you thought Joy’s first tweet was looney tunes, check out her follow up:
Before you believe the bonuses and "pay hikes" are anything other than PR, do what @kurteichenwald is doing: look at the current average pay at these companies. Then check out the CEO and senior management's pay — trust me their tax cut will DWARF whatever the little guys get.

NEVER do what Kurt Eichenwald does.
Seriously.
The guy is famous for suing a kid who sent him an animated gif on Twitter and for his supposed interest in tentacle porn.
No, we’re not making this up.

We’ll pass too.

Both Joy and Kurt should absolutely write a check.
Yeah… he sold off investments for his children right before the market soared. An economic genius.
Don't do that people.

And don’t take screenshots of your desktop with a tab about tentacle porn open either.

Kurt sinking his tentacles into this story, is he?

EEEEEK.
Class warfare again @JoyAnnReid ? Give it a freaking rest.

Sorry @kurteichenwald blocked me but thanks for the tip.

Don’t feel bad, he blocked us too.
Leave it to you to complain about working people getting more money. Unreal.
— Rob Reber (@Robb_R9) December 21, 2017
So there should be no bonuses for "little guys." Joy Reid doesn't approve!
— Agatha Gregson (@gregson_agatha) December 21, 2017
Yea, I’m not gonna do anything crazy Kurt is doing. ???

Very, very wise.
LOL!
