Trump branded, browbeat and prevailed. But his big bill may come at a political cost

  • President Donald Trump used a combination of persuasion and pressure to secure the support of almost all congressional Republicans for his multitrillion-dollar tax cut legislation, despite its widespread unpopularity in 2025.
  • The legislation followed major Democratic laws like Obama’s Affordable Care Act and Biden’s Inflation Reduction Act and involved Medicaid and food assistance cuts to balance costs.
  • Senator Thom Tillis warned the bill would cause drastic coverage losses, exposing Republicans to attacks similar to those faced by Democrats after Obamacare, while Trump pledged to protect entitlement programs.
  • Nonpartisan analysts project 11.8 million more uninsured by 2034, early polls show the bill deeply unpopular among independents, and the Tax Policy Center forecasts tax breaks of $150 to $10,950 across income groups.
  • Trump’s legislative victory faces political risk as Democrats plan to emphasize healthcare losses and tax favors to the wealthy in upcoming campaigns.
