The cuts are not so easily rolled back as long as Trump has veto power.
yeah no one is talking about this term. its fucked. but you just have to look at bidens last term for your answer. they didnt roll back the corpo taxes or fix the taxes for the middle class that trump and the republicans pushed through.

Democrats were not a majority in the Senate at any point in Biden's term, and even if you lump the independents in with them that only gave them an extremely narrow margin.
