Discussion: Debate Moderator Skewers Trump’s Tax Plan: ‘Your Numbers Don’t Add Up’

Discussion for article #246858

If there were ever any doubt that Fox News was the propaganda wing of the Republican Party, this should dispel it. Regardless of the truth or falsehood of what Wallace displayed, it’s not something Wallace or Fox does for Republican-approved candidates. It won’t do anything to stop the true Trumpeteers, either.

Department of Environmental Protection. We are going to get rid of it
in almost every form," Trump said. "We’re going to have little tidbits
left,

Clean water (ask Flint)
Clean air (ask LA)
Clean safe food (Chipotle)
Elect a republican and you won’t have anything to worry about EVERYONE will have equally dirty air to breathe, contaminated water and food to drink and eat. So march on down to the poll and kiss clean air, food and water good bye if you vote for the GOP

Of course the numbers don’t add up. I mean good grief this is the GOP we are talking about. This is the party that took 3 yrs of Bill Clintons surpluses and in the 1st year of Bush II drove the budget into the red. And the Bush GOP gave the rich a $750 Billion tax cut. Remember that folks? That was during the time the US was involved in two wars.!

Honestly…I think this was more or less just proof reading Trump ahead of the general. His numbers are so absurdly off base, they have to be corrected. He is going to save $300 billion by negotiating good drug prices? If Medicare got every drug for free it would only save $78 billion. What, the drug companies are going to pay 3x the value of their drugs just so they will be used??

ait it amazing that a Republican ‘president’ wants to kill what a Republican president created?

i was looking her up now via Wiki,

Whether its Michael or Ron, usually when a Reagan question comes up, those two are often the goto sources…but rarely (and sometimes for good reason) does anyone ask a Nixon or Eisenhower relative about their thoughts on this version of the GOP.

Just curious now…

Julie donated to Obama ('08) and Romney in '12.

Trish gave a donation to McCain.

Ah well, I just took a guess.
McCain had some hard words for trump today I hear. About time after the way trump insulted him.
