Has anyone asked this asshat what his/the Democrats' plan for tax relief might be? Furthermore, aligning himself with Pelosi and Booker might not be the best strategy this year...

But, hey, I'm cool with it.

If they are ‘crumbs’, then why do they want to take them away from us?....................

That’s good, then they should all run on the platform of taking them away. Yep, do that.

Said a representative of a party that threw the middle class overboard decades ago.

They say the cuts are crumbs. Do they intend to increase the tax cuts? It seems so counter to their DNA.

Sure, when you’re used to taking bribes and kickbacks to the tune of several million dollars, these seem like ‘crumbs’.

This is the old “friend or foe” test in action.

If someone complains at your most minor flaws as “hanging offenses” They are your foe. If someone sees even your greatest successes as “a stopped clock is right twice a day” stuff, they are your foe.

The D’s speak against this tax cut at their peril. People are leaving their bubble in droves.

Because your money must be redistributed for a level “playing field.”

The GOP gives us “crumbs” while the democrats give themselves loaves and loaves of our money.

Hypocrite Democrats complain about tax reform bonuses being crumbs while refusing to compromise regarding their undisciplined, unconstitutional spending in Omnibus spending bills.

And speaking about unconstitutional taxing and spending, spending that the corrupt, post-17th Amendment ratification Congress cannot justify under its constitutional, Article I, Section 8-limited powers, we’re never going to hear the Democrats and RINOs mention the ultimate tax reform.

Repeal the 16th and ill-conceived 17th Amendments.

Patriots need to work with their state lawmakers to support Pres. Trump in leading the states to repeal the 16th & 17th Amendments.

What a great platform the democrats have this year.

Tax cuts suck, vote for us and we will repeal them

American citizens suck, vote for us and we will increase the number of illegal coming into America

Christianity sucks, vote for us and we will outlaw it

White working men suck, vote for us and we will replace them with minorities

The Constitution sucks, vote for us and we will abolish it

Freedom sucks, vote for us and we will enslave you

Surely you won’t miss those ‘crumbs’ when the Dems take them back. A mere pittance of your paycheck, of course, for the common good.
Can’t wait till today’s youth have to start paying for all this folly. 51% isn’t too much to contribute to society.

I love it when these Leftist morons start believing their fake polling. They always drop the fake “moderate” posturing and expose their real selves.

Progressive/communists do not lower taxes they raise them, it is what they do.

I wonder if so many of the TN people who finally figured out Al Gore are still around to vote in 2018. The number of TN conservatives is on a downward path.
