I saw that meme too but pointed out it was false because Trump raised personal taxes in the states that pay most of the taxes by eliminating many/most our deductions.

Again acting more like a Democrat, Trump put tariffs on imports while cutting taxes on corporations. The idea is if you build it here you save the tariff/tax and can compete better with low wage countries. You also hire workers who pay taxes so that helps increase tax revenue.

The trouble is he acts more like a Republican with huge increases to war making rather than national defense against a pandemic attack that could kill hundreds of thousands on our own shore. THAT was expensive and caused the deficit to soar despite rising tax revenue.
