Trump’s Huge Retreat on Taxes

Nomination complete- check
Backtrack on promises- check
Laugh at people who believed him- check

Quote
Less than 24 hours after he officially became the Republican party’s nominee, Trump’s team revealed that their tax plan would be the subject of some “tweaks.” Specifically, Trump is looking to abandon seven trillion dollars in tax cuts, fully two thirds of the benefit to taxpayers that he had originally proposed. In scale, this is akin to Trump’s abandoning his promise of a wall with Mexico and proposing a little more funding for border security in its place......

Trump is such a phony:

Quote
He’s not an economic genius after all. For all of Trump’s supposed business acumen, when left to his own devices he put together a terrible plan. And now, when faced by reality, he is hastily co-opting the policies of better men — exactly as he’s done before.  At what point in Trump’s campaign does he show off his famed business skills? He has failed in fundraising, in campaign management, in trade policy, and now in tax policy. This confirms that one of his greatest “strengths” is in fact an unqualified weakness.

I bet the Trump supporters will ignore that he took his new plan from Paul Ryan.

This is no retreat.  Trump has said from the very beginning that he is going to raise taxes.  He has never wavered from that in spite of what someone else posted on his campaign website.  Trump is on record again and again and again saying he will raise taxes.  Yet frauds who think of themselves as 'Conservatives' supported him anyway, pretending that the emperor had clothes.

Sad, but true.  I never in my life dreamed that I would hear 'Conservatives' [sic] for the first time in their lives defend Planned Parenthood just because Trump said they did "wonderful things".

Through all the lies of this campaign, the one thing Trump said that was true is that he could shoot someone on 5th Ave, and people would still support him.
