A stake through the serpent’s heart if it comes to pass.

I want the biggest stake possible.

That's nice, but how about we deal with getting jobs back in the country. There are certain businesses that are not going to survive the impact of COVID-19 (or more to the point, the political reaction to it). Some will not come back.

There is also the issue of the physical property destruction by Antifa/BLM, which will cause numerous businesses to either not re-open or move to another location.

I love Trump, but at some point we’ve got to control the deficit.

The key is cutting spending. Increasing taxes alone doesn’t help with deficits, because it depresses the economy. Indeed, that adds extra spending in the form of unemployment expenses.

Biden would not only increase taxes, but he’d also increase spending—a double whammy.

I think the key problem here is baseline budgeting. For any department, the defalut is for expenses to always go up, because the baseline is last year’s spending plus a CPI kicker. And, as often happens, when government runs under continuing budget resolutions, even less thought is given to the actual budget amouints.

It’s a nice thought but all Trump is doing with that campaign promise is being the politician everyone says he is not. We all know that the only chance this has of happening is if we retake Congress with a unbreakable majority and keep the Senate with the same majority.

Thank you President Trump for this prediction.

But we MUST win control of the HOUSE of Representatives to have a chance at a new tax cut.

THAT must be a priority too.

He should cut taxes by eliminating the IRS and income tax.

Trump would go down in history as the greatest president of the past century.

I could deal with taxes as they are for another 4 years if he would instead focus on cutting spending and reducing deficit. Drain the swamp and trim our bloated government.

Trump knows how to sharply delineate the difference between himself and Biden, who is telling audiences he’ll raise taxes.

I remember Mondale insisting he would raise taxes during the 84 campaign. He ended up winning a total of 3 electoral votes, from his home state of Minnesota.

This smacks of bribery of the voting public, which I view as unethical, but, on the other hand, Biden has promised the exact opposite, which act I don’t view as unethical, which sort of puts me in a quandary. (Not about the policies, about the announced plans prior to the election.)

Damn, POTUS. You’re making it real difficult for Biden to hold his fragile coalition together. What about good sportsmanship, and being a good loser and all that? RINO’s insist that those are among the highest virtues.

I’d like to see taxes at pre-WW1 levels.

On the subject of taxes...
Has anyone working received paychecks that had no federal taxes taken out since President Trump signed that EO?

I hope he can pull this off. The tax cuts need to be huge and wide so that the American public can see the cause and effect of it. Skimpy tax cuts don’t get noticed.
