Except it’s not true.
Show it not to be true then if you can.
Your assertion, your job.
You are asserting it isn’t true. Show it not to be.
You are asserting it’s true. Prove it. If you just want to throw out unverified assertions as facts, and when challenged, put the onus on someone else, you’ll have to find someone willing to do your work for you.
You made the assertion it isn’t true, show it not to be.
Here’s a partial list of specific examples
.
ationwide, more than 2 million workers have had a “Trump Bonus” or “Trump Pay Raise” announced as a direct result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.
The Council of Economic Advisers projects that annual income for American households will increase by an average of $4,000.
President Trump’s tax reforms provide $3.2 trillion in net tax cuts to American families, with every income group seeing a tax cut.
The standard deduction has nearly doubled for many Americans, with levels now at $12,000 for individuals, $18,000 for single parents, and $24,000 for married couples.
The Child Tax Credit has increased by $1,400 for children under the age of 17.
The full Child Tax Credit will now be available for families with incomes of up to $200,000 for single taxpayers and incomes of up to $400,000 for married couples.
A $500 non-refundable tax credit has been created for dependents aged 17 or older who do not qualify for the Child Tax Credit.
Middle-income families are no longer forced onto the Alternative Minimum Tax, with the income phase-out level for exemptions increasing to $500,000 for single households, and $1 million for married couples.
Popular itemized deductions have been retained, such as the mortgage interest deduction for newly-purchased homes of up to $750,000, and the deduction for charitable giving.
Important benefits have been left intact, including the EITC for low-income workers, the deduction for teachers’ out-of-pocket classroom expenses, and the adoption expense tax credit.
DELIVERING FOR MANUFACTURERS: American manufacturers are optimistic like never before, because President Trump’s tax cuts and relief make them more competitive.The National Association of Manufacturers credits President Trump’s “bold, comprehensive tax reform” with driving optimism among their members to “unprecedented heights.”
NAM’s Manufacturers Survey found Q4 2017 optimism levels at “the highest [point] in the survey’s 20-year history.”
The Council of Economic Advisers estimates that these tax cuts will ultimately grow the economy an additional 3 percent.
S corporations, partnerships, and sole proprietorships will be able to deduct 20 percent of their qualified business income.
America’s corporate tax rate was cut from the highest among developed economies to 21 percent, well below the average.
Businesses will be able to deduct 100 percent of non-structure capital investment costs for the next five years.
As the benefits of tax reform become clearer to businesses, employees across America are receiving raises, bonuses, and increases to their benefits.
Chrysler has announced that the tax reform has so improved the U.S. business climate that, in addition to giving $2,000 bonuses to its U.S. employees, it will move truck production from Mexico back to the U.S., creating 2,500 new American auto manufacturing jobs.
THE TRUMP BUMP IN PENNSYLVANIA: President Trump has delivered tax cuts for the Keystone State, restoring economic optimism and opportunity to businesses and residents.Local Pennsylvania businesses are passing the benefits of tax reform back to their communities. Including:
The H&K Equipment (Coraopolis, PA) is investing back into their own company at a rate 50 percent higher than last year.
H&K Equipment directly credits President Trump’s tax cuts for providing them with the ability to expense 100 percent of the investments they make in new construction and demolition equipment.
AccuWeather (State College, PA) will give year-end bonuses to hundreds of its employees.
American Bank (Allentown, PA) is giving employees $1,000 bonuses.
Fidelity Deposit and Discount Bank (Dunmore, PA) has given all employees earning less than $100,000 in annual compensation a $1,000 bonus.
Meridian Bancorp (Malvern, PA) has increased its minimum wage to $15 per hour, with an additional 20 percent added to 2017 bonuses.
NexTier Bank (Butler, PA) is giving all of its employees a $1,000 bonus.
Navient (Hanover, PA), which employs more than 900 people in Hanover, PA, gave nearly all of its roughly 6,700 employees a $1,000 bonus.
Some of America’s largest companies with investments in Pennsylvania are extending the benefits of tax reform to their employees, with increased hiring, benefits, and wages. Including:
Pittsburgh’s PNC Financial Services is giving $1,000 bonuses to 47,500 of its nationwide employees, while increasing base wages, retirement program contributions, and its charitable giving.
Wal-Mart—the single largest private employer in Pennsylvania—is increasing the base wage for all hourly employees to $11, issuing bonuses of up to $1,000, expanding opportunities for maternity and parental leave, and giving employees up to $5,000 for adoption expenses.
Comcast—Pennsylvania’s 15th largest employer—plans to award “special $1,000 bonuses” to nearly 100,000 of its nationwide workforce.
American Airlines—Pennsylvania’s 31st largest employer—will be giving $1,000 to each non-Officer employees at all “mainline and wholly owned regional carriers.”
Oh, median family income rising.
Now, show as you asserted that any of the above as I stated to be false.
Yes, he really is stupid to be publicly admitting it.
Even more stupid though is the allegation he withheld money from employees pay checks for taxes, but instead of sending it to the IRS, he supposedly put it in his own bank account. How long did he think he could keep that up before someone noticed?
Disbarment and spending time in jail could very well be in his future.
According to the articles he’s facing at least fifty lawsuits and has moret han a dozen tax warrants out naming him as well.
Add this to it? I don’t think it’s as much about stupidity as arrogance and being caught up in his own celebrity.
Yeah, could be. I just hope this guys 15 minutes are about up now.
Wonder how Don Lemon and the other “journalists” from CNN enjoyed partying with him?
No kidding. If CNN had any credibility as a news organization they’d fire everyone involved that’s been mentioned so far.
I’ll be surprised if he doesn’t end up in some kind of serious legal trouble.
Anyway, this thread has gone way off the original topic. 
Oh I’d say he’s already there. The only question is what it’s all going to cost him in terms of dollars, time behind bars, and of course his ability to practice law in the future.
Most on the left go on about Fox all the time, but neglect to admit CNN is just as bad in the other direction.
There is no question Fox is Trump and Republican friendly, but even that network has Shep Smith and Bret Baier, neither of whom I’d call biased. Shep is a liberal, and Bret is very fair.
But aside from Jake Tapper, CNN is total garbage these days.
I really don’t care much about MSNBC, because they at least have always been honest about being left wing. But CNN claims to be “the most trusted name in news” and has condescending ads about “this is an apple, but some people would call it a banana” and yet nearly everyone involved in that network are left wing activists for the DNC.
Shep is the token left wingnut. Baer is an excellent journalist and a very good guy.
Well we shall see.
I don’t watch any cable news anymore, but it’s easy to find out what’s been happening from reading blogs and twitter.
I agree about Baer, he could get a job anywhere.
He may find a way out of all of it but he’s definitely in the fight of his life right now.
Well he should be. That IRS story is just bizarre. I feel sorry for his employees who were duped, thinking taxes were being withheld for the IRS, but he allegedly was keeping the money for himself.
I watch more weather channel than anything. A lot of my investments are highly weather dependent.
I try to catch Baer’s show and Tucker Carlson regularly though. I disagree with Tucker a lot and think he’s a bit whacked on some of his ideas but I love his style and he doesn’t let anyone take over and start filibustering unchallenged. He also won’t let anyone get away without answering questions or let them sidetrack the discussion.
