Here’s how it works. The Congress proposes tax increases and the President signs off on them.

Now, if we have a Conservative Congress, they will look for spending cuts, not tax increases.

Trump has already indicated he’ll cut a few of the useless departments, ie EPA DOEd, etc.

This is just campaign talk.

Yeah. All of it is “campaign talk”. He talks out of both sides of his mouth.

How do we know what he really believes?

There are no core principles here.

It does not work like that at all.

The president imposes penalties.

Then appoints supreme court justices that magically make these penalties into TAXES.

So primary taxation authority in post-republic America is the Supreme Court.

That is why discernment on the Supreme Court picks is CRITICAL.
