On Wednesday’s broadcast of CNBC’s “Squawk Box,” New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy (D) said he’s “not wild about” taxing unrealized capital gains, but “I’m wild about a democracy that works. I’m wild about the rich history of our country continuing for the future. I’m wild about opponents having a voice and having a seat at the table, as opposed to being thrown in jail or hunted down by our military.”
While Murphy was talking about New Jersey’s tax policies in the broader context of tax policy fairness, co-host Joe Kernen cut in to ask, “Are you in favor of taxing unrealized gains?”
Murphy responded, “I’m not wild about that.”
Murphy added, “I’m not wild about unrealized gains. But I’m open-minded –.”
Kernen then cut in to ask, “What are you wild about? Not Trump?”

He’s disgusting. Hope he goes to prison for murdering old people like Cuomo and the scum in PA.
Sounds like Murph needs to move to one of those Marxist crapholes below the border that practices “democrazy”. America is a republic. We don’t go in for mobs of idiots with big mouths carrying dumbass signs and singing dumbass songs.
Their word Democracy means Communism
“We think you might make 45 million on the sale of cookies. You owe 22.5 million. Please remit.”
You do know he’s from NJ?
“as opposed to being thrown in jail or hunted down by our military.”
They are creating the narrative that anyone the Trump administration tries to hold accountable, and the democrats have broken a lot of laws to hold onto power, will be a result of tyranny. And our side still has their heads stuck in the sand hoping no one notices them and they can glide to another term.
Before trying to tax unrealized capital gains, the poor must be taxed. If they can’t pay then they must provide services to compensate. Parasites are harmful to the nation
Geez. I clean forgot to take that into consideration. He’s already there.
The price of my building in New York City has declined because there are no renters.
Refund in cash, 41 million in lost revenue please.
Look to Britans new taxes for your future if the Marxists get in.
Democracy is when they take your money under color of law ... fascism is when you keep it.
Murphy can’t outright say a unrealized gain tax is stupid when his party’s presidential candidate is pushing it, so he dodges the question. The purpose of the proposal is to get the ignorant clapping seals to agree and vote for her. I can’t imagine moderate democrats that have built up some assets agreeing to it.
