Author Stephen King blasted President Trump’s tax reform plan Thursday, saying Trump “couldn’t give [a] shit” about “the working man.”

“Trump's no friend of the working man. If you're working for wages, brothers and sisters, he couldn't give Shit One about you,” King tweeted.

“Check his tax plan. Same old same old. The fat man's busy dancing while the poor man pays the band.”

Trump unveiled his tax reform plan Wednesday, which calls for three individual tax rates of 12 percent, 25 percent and 35 percent.

The plan also lowers the corporate rate from 35 percent to 20 percent and nearly doubles the standard deduction while repealing the estate tax and the alternative minimum tax.

Democrats blasted the plan, with Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer Chuck SchumerJacobin editor: Primarying Schumer would force him to fight Trump's SCOTUS nominee CNN's Toobin: Democrats are 'wimps' who won't 'have the guts' to add Supreme Court seats Republican senator says plans to confirm justice before election 'completely consistent with the precedent' MORE (N.Y.) saying it would provide a financial “windfall” for wealthy Americans and Sen.

"It seems that President Trump and Republicans have designed their plan to be cheered in the country clubs and the corporate boardrooms," Schumer said from the Senate floor, adding that the plan should be called “wealth-fare.”



King, a frequent critic of Trump, has previously called for him to be removed from office and said one Trump’s recent tweets is evidence of a “f---ed up mind.”
