D Donor-Voter Disconnect on Display at Debate

[william the wie]

Gail and I watched the D Debate last night where the fix was obviously in. The donor base wants Trump impeached, possible and probable D voters don't. I would suspect the disconnect is SALT. The donor base want total deductibility for state and local taxes so they can ignore flyover country and live like kings on the coasts where the fun stuff is easier to find. If tonight is as much a disaster as last night the Ds are going to lose big because Salt deduction cap will destroy the blue wall. The blue Wall tax base will take another big hit eight months before the election and that means the donors will go out on strike.

It will be interesting to see how they try to spin eliminating the SALT deduction cap as something other than a huge tax break for the wealthy.

I have no idea.
