RE: From the quote, it appears that his attempt will be to smear Trump when he places him in the same company with Sanders and Clinton, who are repulsive people.
I think the attempt is to show that Trump’s tax policy ( at least when it comes to the very wealthy ) is quite similar to Hillary and Sanders, which is to add more “fairness” to the code.
It is NOT an attempt to say that Trump’s politics and policies are equal in all respects to Hillary’s or Sanders’.
People who love Trump might call it a smear. I call it an observation that one cannot help but make.
Exactly!.....But it's only one of several that can be made..
We still have a lot of time to peruse present and past policy statements, and I suggest that we vet each and every candidate.
Right now, it appears to me that many are watching the shiny objects and ignoring a great deal of information.
“I think the attempt is to show that Trump’s tax policy ( at least when it comes to the very wealthy ) is quite similar to Hillary and Sanders, which is to add more “fairness” to the code.”
Williamson referenced “economic-policy views” and “cookie-cutter progressives” when he mentioned Sanders and Clinton, and that involves much more than just taxes. He then goes from the general smear to specifics on taxes.
Which, when done by someone who has nary a clue what Trump's tax policy would be, is absolutely worthless. And when Trump's ideas on such policies are clearly written down in Time To Get Tough, it's really irresponsible of Mr. Williamson to remain so ignorant.
