The irony of this statement, made in Pennsylvania, home of the hated school tax on property that has been the downfall of many a politician who promised to kill this tax and didn't.

When this tax plan goes through, we lose $10,000 of deductions, mostly property tax and medical.

I am retired on Social Security and my wife works a job where she is getting paid 65% of her marketable value.

Thanks Mr. Trump.

Yup. Thanks indeed.

Be careful around here though - if you are not jumping into the pit with the rest, you might be labeled a heretic.

“‘...When this tax plan goes through, we lose $10,000 of deductions, mostly property tax and medical....”
*****************************************
A late change was put in to allow up to $10,000 in PROPERTY tax deductions and the medical deduction threshold was “liberalized” and changed to any medical expense amount above 7.5% of income is deductible instead of the current restriction to amounts above 10% of income.

Just curious. How much federal tax did you pay last year?
