Trump has never done anything wrong. He’s only run a successful business and will run the country successfully. He will pay off the right people, and take the right property to make the trains run on time. Immigration is the most important thing in America, so he’ll deport all illegals and get things done. Cruz can’t win. Trump will get things done. He’ll make America great again. He’s a fighter. There’s no one else in the race who will fight for Americans; not a single candidate. Cruz who? \Trumpgasm.

He wants to tax the rich more and the middle class less... lower corporate taxes... cut government spending and stop raising the debt ceiling.
Wow, what a ****ing communist. /s

Okay, so we have a new Conservative on the forum who calls himself Z Taxman, who is now seeking to trash Trump based on his tax stance.

Here’s Trump’s proposed income-tax plan:

Those making up to $30,000 will pay 1 percent.
Income from $30,000 to $100,000 results in a flat 5 percent.
$100,000 to $1 million income will be taxed at 10 percent.
On $1 million or above will be taxed 15 percent.
“It’s clear and fair,” wrote Trump. “Best of all, it can be filled out on the back of a postcard and will save Americans big bucks on accountants and massive amounts of time wasted attempting to decipher the tax code.”

Any time a politician talks of raising taxes, hold on to your wallets and purses.

Conservatives want to cut spending to eliminate debt, not raise taxes.

Trump and other liberals see raising taxes as the solution.

The only thing I can say about hedge fund managers is that they may make a lot of money if they make a good return on large portfolios, but if they don’t make returns they don’t. Not all hedge fund managers make a lot of money, to do so they have to know what they are doing, they are not just “shuffling papers” as Trump says.

No doubt. All the crap the GOP has put us through, and Freepers haven’t learned to spot a phony.

Obviously you’ve never heard the great Beatle’s song called Taxman, which rails against exorbitant taxes. If not, shame on you friend.

Progressive tax rates kill the small business competition and the rich survive unmolested.

Most of these rich fat cats are wealth redistributionists. Redistribution of other peoples’ money of course; never their own.

The real phonies work in DC and become millionaires on $174,000 salaries.

But please, give us another one of them as POTUS because it has worked so well in the past.

You are the ones who can’t spot the fakes.

The article doesn’t say what the tax plan is. The last time I heard Trump actually talk about it, it sounded like a lower, flatter, graduated tax. That would also amount to taxing the ‘rich’ more than the middle class. I think I remember about 4 tiers.

I actually like Huckabee’s fair tax best IF they can repeal the income tax first. If they don’t, then Huckabee is just adding national sales taxes to national income taxes. We had the same discussion with Herman Cain’s 999.

Better yet....tax the rich Democrats more. Call it the Utopian Tax, because there is no problem on earth that they couldn’t solve by spending more money.

It wouldn't matter, the don't pay taxes. See Geitner, Rangel, Sharpton etc.

The guy who voted for TPP? The guy who was the only one who didn’t know that Mitch McCONnell is a liar? The guy who voted for the Corker bill that let Obama turn the constitution on its ear and get any Iran deal he wanted through the senate? The guy who was for birthright citizenship before he was against it? The guy who wants to triple H1B’s along with Rubio, so Disney can have more Americans train their replacements?

That Ted Cruz?

Thank heavens we can vote for a pure candidate like him instead of this dastardly Trump guy.
