Democrats Demand End of Trump Tax Cuts — or Else No Infrastructure Funding

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) said Monday he would not support a national gas tax increase unless President Donald Trump is willing to repeal some of his administration’s tax cuts.

Ahead of a meeting with Trump on Tuesday on a potential infrastructure deal, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Schumer wrote a letter to Trump, saying that an infrastructure deal must be “comprehensive and include clean energy and resiliency priorities.”

Schumer and Pelosi said that the deal must “go beyond transportation and into broadband, water, energy, schools, housing and other initiatives. We must also invest in resiliency and risk mitigation of our current infrastructure to deal with climate change.”

The Democrat leadership’s letter arises as Trump economic adviser Larry Kudlow said Monday that President Trump continues to mull whether to back a federal gas tax increase to pay for an infrastructure package.

Schumer reportedly will not back a gas tax increase unless Trump can undo the cost through repealing some of the GOP tax cuts.

Gee I thought the Dems said that the tax cuts that Trump gave were a total scam, so how come they want to end it? President Trump should tell the commie left to go F themselves

So... let me get this straight... Schumer won’t support tax increases unless Trump undoes his tax cuts (aka, raises taxes)?

Sounds like a great reason to NOT remove the Trump tax cuts!

Go suck a bag of d*cks, Mr. Schumer.

What the hell is wrong with Democrats, anyway? Why are they so anti-American and anti-prosperity? It’s truly sickening.

Obviously an attempt to get Trump himself to poison his own well. RATs did manage to get Papa Bush to break his tax pledge losing his reelection. Trying to get Trump caught the in the same trap.

I suggest that DJT stop even listening to “Chuckie” Schumer, the LOUDMOUTH from NY.

Fwiw, when I was stationed in NY State (Albany), it was said that the MOST DANGEROUS PLACE in NY was to be between Schumer & a microphone/camera.
