I believe I heard 2.6 million Trump voters on the West Coast didn’t vote because they knew Trump was going to win.
That’s my story and I am sticking to it.
What, who will pay for the free obamaphones and ebt cards?
I want my taxes for the last 8 years back.
Time is still in business??
Right.
Those are known as being like ‘jobs created or saved.’
Votes not cast are still votes for Trump, but 2.6 million didn’t show up to the polls knowing that their vote either wouldn’t count or Trump would win anyway.
I TOTALLY AGREE with this...
Liberals should not pay taxes this year, so they can all be exposed to the fines, penalties, and criminal enforcement actions of the IRS!
A little Karma can go a LONG WAY to reforming things.
65 million multiplied by zero is still zero.

the majority of Dems already don’t pay taxes, so I’m not sure I’m seeing the big threat here ...
Or how about: anyone who voted for Hillary! doesn’t get ANY federal benefits? No child care credit, no food stamps, no subsidized rent, no subsidized college loans, no medicaid, no medicare, no SS. Methinks it would more than offset any failure to pay taxes by Hillary! voters.
By and large, the majority of people (real and imagined) that voted for Hillary aren’t taxpayers anyway, but net recipients of other peoples’ tax dollars.
Time for them to stock up on ammo, gold and heirloom seeds hehe
Reddit/r/the_donald has a policy of using ARCHIVE so that they don’t send their readers to anti-Trump fake news sites.
Might be an idea for FR!
Go ahead and stop paying your federal income taxes. See what happens. There are two parts of the Federal government that are efficient, the military and the collection division of the IRS. The IRS can almost squeeze blood out of a turnip.
The USA is a Republic, not a democracy.
BINGO!
Conspracy and suborning people to commit crimes are themselves crimes.
This could be a way to pay off the national debt of $20 trillion.
Maybe Time should look at the penalties and interest charged.
26 United States Code section
Sec. 7201. Attempt to evade or defeat tax Any person who willfully attempts in any manner to evade or defeat any tax imposed by this title or the payment thereof shall, in addition to other penalties provided by law, be guilty of a felony and, upon conviction thereof, shall be fined not more than $100,000 ($500,000 in the case of a corporation), or imprisoned not more than 5 years, or both, together with the costs of prosecution.
That would make them ineligible to vote in most states, except maybe Virginia.
Great idea!
That is an interesting point. The Republic was structured with certain anti-democratic safeguards, including the Electoral College.
