There will be no rational response to this, they can't justify that position and they know it. This all about following a leader blindly into the ditch, no matter whether they KNOW he does not serve their interests in any way.
That's the bizarre thing about it. Trump doesn't give a tinker's damn about anyone but Trump. He makes no sense in his speeches, just like he made little sense in the debate. What the heck do they see in this clown?
hmm..she is worth $140 million dollars, and she paid only $3.2 million? What percentage is that? 5%?
The average tax rate is what? 30%? At that AVERAGE rate, she should have paid $42 million...not $3 million.
Taxes are based on income, not net worth. She reported $10.6 million in income for 2015 and paid 31% in taxes.
I have always admired wealthy people who advocate increasing the tax rate on the wealthy, because it shows that they are in politics to help others, not just for their own interests. Warren Buffet, Bill Gates, Ted Kennedy are some examples. Unlike Trump - his idea of tax reform is to give more tax breaks to rich people like himself.
I also admire wealthy people who give a significant share of their income to charity. Hillary stated that they try to give 10%; the Obama's gave nearly 15%. Trump is suspected of giving very little (can't say for sure because he won't release his returns), and apparently he is using his Foundation as some kind of money-laundering racket.

You make a lot of sense, unfortunately, this election season has little to do with sense, at least for Trump supporters.
In a statement released by her campaign, Hillary Clinton said the couple has paid nearly $44 million in federal taxes on $141.9 million in income since 2006, and donated nearly $15 million to charity.

I admire people who give to charities on their own, b/c most charities are more efficient than the Govt.
I do not admire others who advocate raising taxes on the wealthy, for what purpose? So the Govt can take more and in their infinite wisdom use the money in shovel ready jobs? Lets see...wealthy people create businesses, that create jobs. I think everyone should keep as much money as possible and give the Govt as less as possible....unless one wants to live in a socialist commune.
