Dems Deserve Brickbats for State-Tax Hikes on Gop’s Federal-Tax Cuts
Filthy, vile, and disgusting. And I would add: reprehensible, repulsive, and rebarbative.
These words perfectly describe the latest Democrat scheme to shaft industrious, economically embattled Americans, all so that the Left can get President Donald Trump.
There are no depths too low for Democrats to dig to hurt this president. They were at Sub-basement Level 14 and have now shoveled their way to Sub-basement Level 15.
The Trump/GOP “One Big, Beautiful Tax Cut” includes no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, and a new tax-deduction for Social Security benefits. These promises helped Trump secure the White House and Republicans the U.S. House and Senate.
The GOP’s huge win in November 2024 gave Republicans a solid mandate to keep these promises. And they did.
Nonetheless, the Democrat-mismanaged states of Colorado, Illinois, Maine, and New York are rigging their tax codes so that this Trump/GOP tax relief does not reduce corresponding state levies. The same holds for Democrat-smothered © The Daily Signal
