Hell Freezes Over:Bernie Sanders Admits That GOP’s Tax Cuts are a Boon for America’s Middle Class
IWB ^ | Chris Black

The self described socialist and Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders, an actual communist (he spent his honeymoon in Soviet Russia by his own volition) who keeps blathering about “millionaires and billionaires”, a strange dude who never had a real job in his life until he was like 40 years old and then  started working for the government, and now he’s basically a one percenter himself (he owns like 3 houses and he’s worth millions of dollars) admitted on Sunday that President Trump’s tax reform is actually pretty good for America’s middle class. To make things even more interesting, comrade Bernie aknowledged that tax cuts will positively affect 91% of hard working Americans on the very fake news outlet CNN, which adds insult to injury to any respectable marxist millennial who thought “Bernie is our guy”.

Sanders was asked by  CNN host Jake Tapper if he regards it as a good thing that 91% of America’s middle class is going to benefit from tax relief following GOP’s tax reform legislation, which is one of President Trump seminal campaign promises. Tapper enquired:

“I understand you’re not a fan of the tax bill, you don’t like the large corporate tax cut and you’re not happy with the tax cuts for the wealthy, but according to the Tax Policy Center, next year 91% of middle income Americans will receive a tax cut – isn’t that a good thing?”

we should have made the tax breaks for the middle class permanent

No. They should have made all the tax cuts in the bill permanent. Bernie is class warfare trash. He wants the top wage earners to pay all the taxes. He will go after their property next.

To expect that these tax cuts will last 10 years is rather unrealistic.

As soon as the Democrats get power they will raise taxes. It’s what they do.

Talk about making the tax cuts permanent is just political showmanship.

The only things permanent about taxes is that there will always be taxes and the political class will use the tax code to get campaign funds.

They couldn’t be permanent unless it got over the sixty vote hurdle. They should put a bill up to make them permanent in January and dare the democrats to vote against it

Not surprising that he would admit it. He just doesn’t LIKE it.

Bernie hates the Middle Class. He doesn’t want a booming economy for them; he wants to take away all they own, give unlimited dictatorial power to the government, and spread their wealth around until everybody’s poor.

Because the poor are the easiest to control. For socialism, you want the elites talking down to everyone else, making the rules, not living by them, and the poor who are forced by need to do what the elites demand. And lies. You need lots of sweet sounding lies.

Well fortunately, this senile old rape-fantasizing Marxist creep will never be president.

The bill is timed to last only as far as Trump expects to be president.

After that, it will be up to the contenders for the presidency to extend the tax cuts, or to just let the cuts fade away.

So, who will flinch first? Will republicans call for extension, and will democrats dare to let tax cuts fade, thereby raising taxes to taxpayers? The way I see it, the democrats are being set up for a bruising battle, that they'll end up losing, because, who is going to let democrats raise taxes on them?
