I saw this coming a long time ago. He won’t raise (increase) any taxes (well, except on smokers, they don’t count). But he will create brand new taxes. That isn’t raising a tax. Heck, he could even abolish a tax and bring it back with a slightly different name at a higher rate. So he gets credit for eliminating one tax, hey, that’s a tax cut, for real. And the new tax, that’s just new. You can’t raise that, it’s new.
