More Of The Same Drivel From Repugs On Taxes & Tax Reform.....

we're going to let the people keep their money.

Well where has that gotten us in the past?

Every time the Repugs work on taxes they say the same thing. And every time - we get the same results.

Remember GW Bush. He told the American People that and what were the results. A massive recession that almost dragged us into a bigger depression. How many people lost their jobs? How much were we in the hole.

It literally took President Obama his two terms to help us climb out. And guess what the chasm between the wealthy and the middle class and poor widened more than it ever did.

So People - don't fall for this again. Don't let the Repugs and Trump tell you this tax reform is about you. Cause it isn't. It is a massive give away to the top 1%'ers and the Corporations. They are in the process to try and fleece us more than they ever did in the past.

Surely you'll be able to file your taxes on a postcard - because that's all you'll be able to afford if we let them con us again with this tax reform talk.

We need to fight the Repugs and Trump with the fervor we fought to kill their healthcare repeal and replace attempts.

The Dems Need To Get In Front Of This Tax Reform Bill From Trump Immediately.....

they need to really push massive tax breaks and savings for the middle class - well beyond what the Repugs and Trump think that they are giving up to the middle class with their proposal.

This way they have a real negotiating stance against the Repugs. if the Dems don't do this they take the chance of the Repugs and Trump painting them into a corner that - the Dems don't want to give tax breaks to the middle class.

If the Dems push for massive tax breaks to the middle class - the Repugs won't be able to use that against them.

I'm Confused - Trump Says They Have The Votes For Healthcare.....

says - they'll do this early next year. Keeps talking about a Senator in the hospital that's a 'yes' vote. Is he referring to McCain? or somebody else? McCain is a definate 'no' - unless it is put through in regular order. And I thought next year they are going to have to have 60 votes and it is subject to a filibuster.

What the hell is he talking about?
