I know this is silly to even discuss at this stage, but isn’t it abundantly clear in the Constitution that congress sets the tax rates? Of all these issues, it doesn’t get any more cut and dried than this topic.

Yep, it’s clear 0bambam doesn’t give a whit about the Constitution, especially in these last two years knowing he won’t be impeached and convicted.

Is there really any way for the president to do this? Aren’t tax rates and how taxes are levied straightforward and not subject to executive decrees??? I would be shocked if a president can legally increase the tax rate, or change tax exemptions or deductions by executive decree.

Congress, who needs Congress? We have the Supreme Ruler, King Hussein, and the Bureaucracy! If Congress doesn’t wake up, this will likely be the State of the Union in our lifetime.

Well, except in the case of immigration and naturalization!

Oh, I’m sure there is some loophole, and judges bought and paid for who would side with the leftists.
It’s sickening what congress won’t stop.

True, except that it is now abundantly clear that there are no cajones in Congress to stop him.
