get SALT back
Hey dipshit, it was your Tax “Cuts” and “Jobs” Act that took SALT away.
I don’t know who’s the bigger goddamned morons: this goddamned moron, or the goddamned morons who don’t realize he’ll say whatever he thinks will get him elected.
Contrary to their claims, it doesn’t just affect the rich. It many of us in high tax states, and was politically motivated.
Here in Massachusetts, paying the average property tax plus state income tax on the average income already hits the cap, then you have various excise and sales taxes. Sure, we choose higher taxes to pay for a higher quality of life, but Trump’s SALT cap means we pay taxes on taxes, which is just wrong. For the people who oppose changing or removing this, are you really saying an income of $46,000 is rich?
It does need to go but I would never trust the person who created it in the first place, nor give him credit for backing out his own spiteful action
The SALT reductions weren’t designed to target the rich; they were designed to punish blue state voters for not worshipping the moldy orange god.
Blue state economic successes are proof that Conservative ideology doesn’t lead to prosperity; ergo they must be demonized.
It’s not like he even knows what he’s talking about. He’s at the “just says shit” point in the dementia.
His handlers wrote that, that was much too coherent!
I hope Nassau Colosseum collected their fees & expenses up front, otherwise they’ll join the long list of venues trump hasn’t paid.
WHAT THE HELL DO YOU HAVE TO LOSE?
Well, quite a lot considering I’m not an almost 80-year-old incomprehensible lunatic
Why does he want New York to go back to the 70s? Wasn’t it kinda shit then?
It was brutal. It was his “personal Vietnam” because he avoided STDs.
Traveling to long island sucks ass to begin with. Imagine doing it for a weird nazi rally
He finally put his plan together, which appears to be “make the country so shitty people flee FROM the US”. It’s a bold strategy Cotton.
WHAT THE HELL DO YOU HAVE TO LOSE?
“What the hell do you have to lose” is one of those great little artifact statements from 2016. The kind that kinda could plausibly work for him back when he was a “political outsider” but I don’t think it really works on anyone these days.
Even among his cult, there’s an understanding and an acceptance of the fact that Trump essentially runs the republican party now. Everyone’s bowed down, everyone’s paid homage. Almost definitionally now, being in the republican party means you are pro-Trump. That may very well be the only metric upon which GOP politicians are judged in the modern day.
“What the hell do you have to loose” is one of those kinds of statements that worked in the context of “the establishment running the party
aren’t racist enoughdon’t have your best interests at heart so why not give me a shot?” that comes with a kinda tacit admission that “I’m probably not going to be much better”. But in 2024 Trump’s just not the outsider anymore. He is the republican establishment.Among the many other delusions he is clearly trapped in, I think he’s also trapped in the delusion that he’s some kinda evergreen outsider, despite the fact that he served four years as president and another four basically running the GOP opposition. I think that delusion is not helped by the fact that the republican base is so rabidly anti-intellectual that you kinda have to present yourself as “an outsider” in order to get anywhere, but if it’s an outsider your looking for Trump just aint it.
What is SALT
State and Local Tax for those who don’t want to click a link.
Sure, but context here is important. He’s pledging to get rid of something he put in place to begin with.
