Teeing Up Lies

New York magazine published an article last week (link here) that documents how the current GOP tax proposal, which Donald Trump has also been promoting heavily, is a shameless exercise in mass deception.

While claiming to benefit primarily the middle class, the proposal really benefits the extremely wealthy. And as I documented on this blog before, the Trump family stands to see lower taxes in the hundreds of millions of dollars.

The New York piece reveals how owners of golf courses, like Trump himself, will see a particular windfall in the tax package. The article quotes from a Bloomberg News piece (link here) with the title "One Tax Loophole Untouched So Far: The Trump Golf-Course Break."

It's astonishing how the President can lie so brazenly and that his deception can so easily be exposed. Yet he's counting on his supporters not to tune into the news and, instead, blindly buy his bullshit.

This is the bottom line here: Trump himself and his children will be the biggest beneficiaries of this tax bill if it passes, not the middle class. Many middle and working class folks will actually see their taxes increase.
