Fantastic.

But to Trumpbots, this won’t matter.

They will justify any liberal idea this leftist RINO proposes as if it’s no big deal.

Today, the United States experienced a tsunami of “conservatives” now OK with higher taxes, guys in women’s restrooms, and liberalizing the GOP platform on abortion.

Tax the Rich.

Just the liberal ones, and most rich folks are liberals, despite what their class warfare rhetoric would tell you.

I think Guy has a thing for Trump - he wants a real alpha male badly. Trumps tax plan has been public for 9 months. He isn’t abandoning that regardless of Guy’s fantasies about Trump or taxes. The only domestic tax I’ve heard about from Trump is eliminating carried interest at the cap gains rate and taxing it at the ordinary rate like anyone else that works in a business. Of course the ordinary rate will be 25 not 42. But Guy can dream if he acts up enough Trump will notice him.

Trump Supporters: I don’t believe in raising taxes on the wealthy.

Trump: I believe in raising taxes on the wealthy.

Trump Supporters: I believe in raising taxes on the wealthy.


For a bonus quiz.
Who said the following:
“Right now, everybody’s so pinched that business is bad for everybody. And I think when you spread the wealth around, it’s good for everybody.”

Now all that is left for him to do - is to define the “rich” And define how much.
If he is like the rest of the Dems - he will define “rich” down to what I consider middle income.
I hope he doesn't go after a one time tax on ASSETS. Nit income , but ASSETS. He did propose that when he flirted with one of his previous Presidential flirtations - with a Reform Party run in 1999.

Trump just today:

Tax the rich
Transgenders Should ‘Use the Bathroom That They Feel Is Appropriate’
Illegals must go through a process

Remind me again how Donald is different from Bernie or Hillary?

If tax rates were lowered economic activity would increase and tax revenues to the government would increase. Isn’t that what Reaganomics was all about? If Trump is saying that the rich would pay more incomes taxes at the lower rates he is correct.

Problem is leaving the progressive income tax system intact for the next Democrat to go right back to where we are now, crony.

1) Bad economics!

2) Inevitable, no matter WHO wins (our debt after all is now $19 trillion)

3) A crowd-pleaser that is sure to get him votes.

I choke on that last one as I type it, but I believe its true.

Trump says whatever comes into his head that he thinks will sound good to the people.

The rich are already taxed... a lot.

Ted Cruz tax plan is fair for everyone and makes sense.

Trump ... doesn’t really have much of a clue.
