NY Post ^ | 5/09/18 | Mark Moore

President Trump on Twitter Wednesday predicted the Republican Party will win the midterm elections in November because of the “sooo strong” economy and Nancy Pelosi confirming she supports a​ ​tax increase, ​asking, “why wouldn’t we win?”

“The Republican Party had a great night. Tremendous voter energy and excitement, and all candidates are those who have a great chance of winning in November. The Economy is sooo strong, and with Nancy Pelosi wanting to end the big Tax Cuts and Raise Taxes, why wouldn’t we win?​,” the president wrote.​

Pelosi, the House minority leader, was quoted criticizing Trump’s tax cut plan during a town hall meeting Tuesday, saying 83 percent of its benefits go to the 1 percent.

Pelosi put out a statement afterward clarifying that Democrats want to make the middle-class tax cuts permanent. They expire in 2025.

She really doesn't know when to shaddap. ​

“Working class democrats will not go for increased taxes.“

Who does? It seems that the company headed by arguably the wealthiest person on the planet doesn’t seem enthused, either.

If I actually believed that more than 20% of what I pay would actually be spent for the purposes of making my life and the lives of fellow Americans better in an equal and fair manner, I might be willing to reconsider.
