Biden vows to repeal Trump tax cuts on 'Day One' if he captures White House
Fox News ^ | 6/23/2019 | By Vandana Rambaran

Former Vice President and current presidential candidate Joe Biden promised Saturday that on "Day One" of a Biden presidency he would repeal President Trump's 2017 tax cuts and close $500 billion on tax loopholes.

Speaking at the South Carolina Democratic Party Convention, Biden said that "Income inequities are at an all-time high and made worse by Trump's tax cuts and enormous giveaways to the top one-tenth of the 1 percent ... and it's time we start to reward work over wealth."

Outlining his policy proposals in this visit to the early primary state, Biden said the GOP-backed tax cuts, which have been heavily criticized in some quarters as beneficial only to the rich, have no socially redeeming value. He vowed to "put that money to good use."

Biden promised that, among other things, residual funds from the tax break would be put toward initiatives such as green energy research and development, two-year college tuition grants and a public-option health insurance

But we won’t have to wait that long for the stock market to crash. That will happen on Nov 5, 2020 if Biden wins.

As long as he stays in the bubble, trump is a shoe in.

On the other hand, if this turns out to be a winning strategy, this nation is done. Stick a fork in it - and move to the country pronto. As usual, the voters would be the problem, and they are everywhere.

Before y’all laugh, remember that half the population pays little or no income taxes. Naturally, many of them are going to cheer Biden for “sticking it to rich people.”
This is simply the politics of envy in its pure form.
Biden knows his base.

Watch the major market indices throughout 2020. Of course, they follow a lot of the foolish press hype and silly polls (as they did in 2016).

Aren't the “Trump Tax Cuts” in law? Seems to me that Biden is a loon to suggest that he can unilaterally rescind Federal Law. I guess maybe he thinks that he will get a RAT Congress and Senate next year too.

The President alone cannot repeal the tax law, can they? It would have to expire or be repealed by Congress, and then signed by the President, would it not?

Put aside some cash to pick up stock bargains if Biden or any other democRAT gets elected in November 2020.

[Biden] vowed to "put that money to good use."

Yeah, you stupid Deplorables don't know how to put your own money to good use! Paying the mortgage? Buying a the car? Savings? Paying the kid's tuition? Taking a vacation? NOT ONE of those things is a "good use."

Who was it that said "We’re going to take things away from you on behalf of the common good.” when referring to earlier tax cuts?

Correct. The Senate will stay GOP controlled, and the House will be back in control of the GOP.
