US fiscal deficit in 2017 - USD$666B

http://www.marketwatch.com/story/us-ends-fiscal-2017-with-666-billion-budget-deficit-2017-10-20


The US fiscal deficit in 2017 is already USD$666b.  Trump tax plan will add more to its current deficit.  However, the Senate only managed to pass the deficit of USD$1.5T in the next decade.  Therefore, Trump couldn't get his $5T tax plan fully implemented.

On Oct 19, the Senate passed a budget of $4 trillion in a 51-49 vote which will allow the Republicans to move ahead with the tax cuts.

The proposed plan calls for three tax rates, 12%, 25% and 35%. This is likely to add $1.5 trillion to the deficit over a decade.
