Why call people liars when you cant prove it? You sound like CNN.Well for sure..since he keeps his taxes hidden there is no way to know..100%--but most experts agree he will make out..bigly.I laughed because i dont see how that is even comparable to war or "if you like your doctor you can keep your doctor"Link to this benefiting him please.Errr..except for the Tax Cuts, of course..where he said that the bill would not benefit him at all. I think that would qualify as a lie intended to pass major legislation that will effect every citizen, don't you?Trump obviously lies multiple times every day. So does the media.
So did every other president. So do the partisans.
But, so far, at least trump isnt lying to get us into wars or pass major legislation that will effect every citizen in this country. At least he has that. So far.
Well..since you seemed to find it funny when I said it..although I fail to see the humor..still, why not:
White House Says Trump Could Benefit From Business Tax Cuts
"Trump has repeatedly said the legislation wonât benefit him, even insisting heâd be a âbig loserâ if it passes. The House approved the tax bill Tuesday afternoon. The Senate plans to begin debating the measure and is likely to approve it later in the day.
âIn some ways, particularly on the personal side, the president will likely take a big hit,â Sanders said during a White House press briefing. âBut on the business side he could benefit.â
Sanders added that a ânumber of provisionsâ would negatively impact the president, but didnât specify which ones. Among other things, the bill would cap the deduction on state and local taxes, including property taxes, at $10,000.
Experts have said that Trump and other high earners would gain considerably under the plan. Many high-earning pass-through businesses -- including Trumpâs many companies that own real estate assets -- would see temporary tax cuts."
Trump Says G.O.P. Tax Bill Wouldnât Benefit Him. Thatâs Not True.
"President Trump likes to argue that the tax-reform legislation hurtling through Congress this week will protect low- and middle-income households, ânot the wealthy and well connected.â He puts himself forward as Exhibit A.
âThis is going to cost me a fortune,â he said on Wednesday in Missouri. âThis is not good for me.â
So surely at least a few of the most egregious loopholes that benefit Mr. Trump and real estate developers like him will be closed.
Not in the slightest.
In fact, the proposals seem almost tailor-made to enrich the president and people like him.
âCommercial real estate came out essentially unscathed,â said Douglas Holtz-Eakin, president of the American Action Forum, a conservative advocacy group. Real estate developers âdidnât lose anything they care about,â and they got even more breaks, like a shorter depreciation schedule in the Senate tax bill, Mr. Holtz-Eakin pointed out.
âLower pass-through rates and the repeal of the alternative minimum tax â those two alone are so hugely beneficial to Trump that I have trouble imagining any way that he wouldnât come out ahead,â said Steve Wamhoff, senior fellow for federal tax policy at the nonpartisan Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy. (The pass-through reference involves income that typically comes from partnerships and limited liability companies.)"
Trump proposes massive tax cuts, says he wonât personally benefit
"âNo I donât benefit. I think thereâs very little benefit for people of wealth,â Trump told reporters at the White House."
Trump's tax plan could actually benefit wealthy people like him
And on and on and on and on...
How can you possibly know how he will fare? Answer? You cant.
Will his loses on the personal side outweigh his business? Who knows.
Nice try though.
Thanks for wasting my fucking time.
