Midterm year. it s going to be a bigger challenge, i think, in the midterms, don t you think? i think the midterms are going to be more difficult because of the gerrymandering, because of these voter i.d. laws. but i ll point out some examples. in new hampshire, are we picked up seats, we picked up seats in the state legislature, in new hampshire, after a voter i.d. law had been passed. and this is the 33rd. this seat last night was the 33rd seat that democrats have flipped since trump became elected. the seat before that, democrats won that other seat before that ruby red seat by 60%. so, yes, there are some challenges. but democrats are energized. and also, i want to point out one thing. it s women and people of color that are running, too. particularly in virginia. tara dowdell and cornell belcher, thank you. i ll be on late-night with seth meyers later tonight. tonight, senator al franken ....
Going to get killed in this bill. i m guessing you might have been skeptical of that claim. and with good reason. nbc news commission did an analysis of the tax bill passed today by the house, and it found that trump and his heirs potentially could save more than $1 billion if the bill becomes law. the analysis based on two things. the first is trump s 2005 tax return first revealed by rachel maddow. if the tax bill had been that year, trump would have saved $20 million himself thanks to the repeal of the alternative minimum tax. also based on the assumption that trump is, as he claims, a billionaire. because the house bill repeals the estate tax. trump s heirs would be able to inherit their father s wealth tax-free. it is definitely possible that his heirs don t stand to inherit nearly so much. this week, the magazine cranes reported the trump organization had fallen steeply in its list of the largest privately held companies from number three to ....
Also the turnout from and look, i think we had great candidates in virginia, but that was also a lot democratic, right? you had parts of identification for dems were better than ten points than it was last time, it was a lot more liberal. a lot browner than what it usually is. that s been our problem in mudd te midterms before. so what that electorate looks like. right. and how much that s a question of persuasion versus motivation. that oklahoma state senate seat, that was getting out the base in a very low turnout election, because it s a special election in a state senate, not even in a midterm year. it s going to be a bigger challenge, i think, in the midterms, don t you think? i think the midterms are going to be more difficult because of the gerrymandering, because of these voter i.d. laws. but i ll point out some examples. in new hampshire, are we picked up seats, we picked up seats in the state legislature, in new hampshire, after a voter i.d. law had been passed. and ....
The rich in terms of tax cuts. i mean, what this republican bill and you look at both bills, what you see is just an extraordinary amount of money that is being redistributed upward from people who don t have very much or have almost nothing to people who have everything. people who have never had in the history of america more. and corporations corporations who are flush with cash. american corporations, are right now pulling in half of the profits of all corporations in the entire world, even though we are one-fifth the size of the world economy. and what are these corporations doing? what they do with all this money is they buy back their shares of stock in order to raise the price of the share of stock. and by raising the price of the share of stock, they re not helping all americans. because the top 1% owns about 40% of the value of the shares of stock. and the top 10% owns 80% of the entire stock market. so once again, chris, however ....
