U.S. Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said on Sunday he was open to raising taxes on the rich, backing off his prior proposal to reduce taxes on all Americans and breaking with one of his party’s core policies dating back to the 1990s.

“I am willing to pay more, and you know what, the wealthy are willing to pay more,” Trump told ABC’s “This Week.”

WTF are you people, yes you people talking about?

Trump has stated on a gazillion occasions that he supports closing loop holes...which potentially means higher taxes for me and others...

CNN Headline August 28 2015,

Donald Trump: Tax the rich more

excerpt...

Quote:
 
"The hedge fund people make a lot of money and they pay very little tax," Trump said in an interview Wednesday with Bloomberg. "I want to lower taxes for the middle class."
In short, Trump is willing to raise taxes on himself and those like him.
Many hedge fund managers and real estate investors are able to list their earnings as "carried interest" because of an IRS tax rule. They are able to cast their earnings as investment gains instead of income, which allows them to be taxed at a lower rate.
"You've seen my statements. I do very well. I don't mind paying a little more in taxes. The middle class is getting clobbered in this country," he said.

If you people keep regurgitating what the press spews to you it's going to be a very embarrassing several months until November....

Apparently, Clone believes that a "fact check" is a big box with the word "fact" and a check mark in it.

His plan recommends a tax cut for the wealthy.

At least until now...

Quoting limited to 3 levels deep

But what about his conservative base?

Don't they oppose taxing the wealthy?
