President Donald Trump marked Tax Day 2018 by trumpeting the law he signed last year, even as the overhaul remains unpopular, according to a new poll.

‘ENJOY!’

Trump said on Twitter, “Employment is up, Taxes are DOWN. Enjoy!” and, “So many people are seeing the benefits of the Tax Cut Bill. Everyone is talking, really nice to see!”

Trump’s rosy assessment of the law is contradicted, however, by the latest Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll. The survey found that more people view the Republican tax overhaul as a bad idea than a good one. But Americans see the GOP as better equipped than Democrats to handle taxes, trade and other economic issues, the poll found. It found that 27% of respondents thought the law was a good idea, while 36% thought it was a bad one.

Trump himself asked the IRS for an extension on his 2017 tax return, White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said, “as do many Americans with complex returns.”

TROOP TERMS

Trump said it looked like California Gov. Jerry Brown wasn’t “looking for safety and security” along the state’s border with Mexico, tweeting “he cannot come to terms for the National Guard to patrol and protect the Border.”

But Brown, at an event in Washington, said his state was “pretty close” to an agreement with the administration to send between 200 and 400 of the state’s National Guard troops to the border. Brown, a Democrat, has said he wouldn’t allow troops to help build a barrier at the border or enforce federal immigration laws.

ABE ARRIVES AT MAR-A-LAGO

Trump welcomed Japanese Prime MinisterShinzo Abe to his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida, for a two-day meeting. Abe reportedly raced to arrange the meeting after Trump agreed to talks with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, and is seeking to ensure Japan’s interests will be reflected in any deal-making between Washington and Pyongyang.

Addressing reporters shortly after Abe’s arrival, Trump said he’d meet Kim “in early June or a little before that, assuming things go well. It’s possible things won’t go well and we won’t have the meetings.” Trump also said five locations were being considered for the meeting, and that his administration has already had direct talks with North Korea at “very high levels.”

Trump said he and Abe would “sneak out tomorrow and play a round of golf if possible.”
