Yep that's pretty much it. It's not only a hit job to get Hillary elected, it's to demonize business people and gain the support of the illiterates to force them to give more money to the government.

Exactly. While he didn't say it, he basically did.

And yet in the 2000s they didn't when we had the Bush era tax cuts. In the 1980's we saw jobs cut with the use of junk bonds for the M&A and hostile takeover craze and many (especially seniors) taken to the cleaners with the S&L crisis despite the Reagan bull market and tax cuts... Care telling me again how trickle down economics truly work in practice again.

Speak for yourself. As a Christian, to me paying taxes is a way of loving my neighbor. It's my personal contribution to make sure that children get schooling, that the elderly are cared for etc.

One undecided leaning supporter of Trump now won't vote Trump in November, he is offended as a tax payer.
Thanks for article. I read it.

It is a good example how many of the undecided voter finally paid attention to what Trump says.

Around the Country Trump lost far more undecided voters than he gained.

A player plays.

Further an impartial umpire is refereeing a level playing field.

Trump is not playing.

Not supporting America's tax bill is unAmerican.

The umpire is not impartial.

The playing field is unlevel.

Hence the poor players pay the taxes for him.
