Harris gets Four Pinocchios from the Post this morning: “The average tax refund is down about $170 compared to last year. Let’s call the President’s tax cut what it is: a middle-class tax hike to line the pockets of already wealthy corporations and the 1%.” — Sen. Kamala D. Harris (D-Calif.), in a tweet, Feb. 11, 2019 Harris, who is running for president in 2020, attacked President Trump’s tax law after the Internal Revenue Service reported that preliminary data shows that the average tax refund check is down 8 percent ($170) this year compared with last year. Boy, talk about a non sequitur that turns out to be nonsensical and misleading. Let’s take a look. *** The Pinocchio Test This tweet combines two factoids into a highly misleading package. Yes, tax refunds are smaller, based on preliminary data. And, yes, in the long run, the Trump tax cut raises taxes on the middle class — if you make the probably unrealistic assumption that Congress will not act to rescue tax cuts for individuals. But Harris presented these facts without nuance or qualification, making it appear as though the smaller tax refunds were evidence of a tax hike on the middle class. In reality, the size of a tax refund reflects nothing about the size of a tax cut or tax increase — and at least in 2018, the vast majority of middle-class Americans can expect to pay less in taxes as a result of the Trump tax law.

So this is even a thing for today republican and cult followers? I thought you people already live in a world that lies are perfectly acceptable.
Ive criticized Trump plenty. What I dont involve myself in is the wishful thinking many of you PHantasize about non stop. "IF Trump <enter wishful PHantasy here> then he should be tried for treason and executed"
No... you don't criticize trump, even for things you claim Democrats say or do. And then you make up a strawman about how people that do criticize trump want trump tried and executed.
Is this the same lady that said she smoked weed in college and was listening to Snoop and Tupac 6-8 years before they released any music? Looks to me like they all lie when it's convenient.....
This thread and the forum has become a Trump supporter witch hunt. If you don't call him Hitler, then OMG Trump supporter. If you approve of anything the man does, dear god we must gather the pitch forks and torches! Say something positive about the man, or even neutral, and listen to the Reeeeeeeeee's.
[Premium Post] Kamala "Horizontal" Harris, graduated summa c*m laude from the Willie Brown school of knob slobbering. It was during these years of higher learning when she listened to Snoop and Tupac while smoking. GOOD DAY
So now you’re not allowed to compare/contrast someone running for president with the person they’d be running against? Good one Trump fans.
