Again, I reiterate, i despise MAGA for shoving this asshole down our throats.

…this should trigger some people to vote if they see/understand this fact(s)…

Don’t worry, it’s all about voters’ gut feeling that 2019 was better.

I’ve been working from home for over a decade and I was able to write off some of my living space as office expenses for years. Once Trump took office, their administration increased that threshold to the point where I couldn’t do that anymore. This increased my tax burden and it’s been the same since.
The media will tell me my own experience of Republicans increasing my taxes is lying to to me of course.

I bet I know which 5% would not have their taxes increased. It rhymes with witch.

Like how else would the government offset the revenue loss of corporate tax cuts? Oh I know, we can also gut the Dept of Education, Dept of interior…Get rid of Social Security, VA benefits, etc.

That’s ok. It’s a small price to pay to be able to scapegoat minorities.

I mean, that’s not that different than how the 2017 tax plan worked out

The Harris campaign should be endlessly hammering this in ads.

A total dumbass that doesn’t understand tarriffs will just cause increased pricing on everything tariffed – total idiot.

It’s likely coincidental that a prominent tax evader is participating in the campaign alongside him, correct?

He did that already before his term ended. That’s why the middle class has to pay an extra 1k in taxes. The tax increase would go until 2027 and he’ll just redo what he did before.

What a surprise. Get out and vote. Currently, the only way to get rid of these terrorists is to vote.

Liberal media lies … something something … it’s Bidens fault if anything Trump enacts doesn’t work …or whatever
Can I get this analysis on something besides HuffPost so I can send it around?

His last one raised taxes on millions of households, too. They’re just too fucking dumb to realize it, and accept it was a “cut” because Dear Leader said it was.

“plan”

Economists (and anyone who understands how tariffs work) agree his extreme Tariff plan is guaranteed to lead to much higher inflation. And we finally just got that under control at 3% now.

IMO, those making under 50k should barely pay any taxes. I’m fine with our middle tax brackets after that. Above $1M; there should be way more brackets. $1M is much different than 20,50,100, etc. We should be more progressive at the tops and give more breaks/lower them at the bottom.

Dems need to keep repeating this over and over. The MAGA lie is effective about Trump being good for the economy.

The GOP historically is terrible for the economy, job creation, and growth. They typically always create recessions so their rich buyers can get even richer during the decline.

I think it should be illegal to give a tax ‘cut’ during your term, then have a tax increase go into effect the next term, once you are out of office.
That was some grade A bullshit.
Graylien_Alien on
I know a guy who loves Trump and every time I see him he bitches about how much he hates paying so much taxes. I’ve tried to tell him that Trump raised his taxes but its like talking to a brick wall.

Hmm, I wonder who those lucky 5% are…

This is my shocked face.

In the meantime, his taxes are still under audit.

And roughly 45% of the country think they are in the 5% whose taxes won’t increase.
