    I really don’t think the dems did

    Clinton raised tax rates on the wealthy.

    Obama raised tax rates on the wealthy.

    Biden raised the minimum tax rates on corporations from 0% to 15%.

    Harris was going to raise this rate even higher.

    This is all part of the public record. Try to pay more attention to what is going on. For your own sake. And for our sake, if you are going to make comments here.

    Trumps went pretty much under the radar

    Trump lowered taxes on the wealthy by $4 trillion in 2017 Tax cuts and jobs act… Next year, all income groups under 75k in the same 2017 legislation will pay more taxes because of Trump’s Tax Cuts and Jobs Act according to the congressional budget office joint committee on taxation. Treason Trump has already indicated he is going give the wealthy yet another gigantic GOP tax cut.

        You know, when someone asks for sauce, they are asking for links; for proof

        You are so f*cking lazy. You could have googled this stuff, instead of REPEATING your baseless claims. The worst thing you can do on the internet is express confident ignorance. And you just did it.

        Obama didn’t raise taxes on the rich, he just closed loopholes for them

        Nope. He raised tax rates on the rich.

        Harris promised to continue the legacy of Biden

        Nope. She promised to raise taxes on corporations and the rich.

        Biden did vaguely talk about it for a short while nothing came of it

        Nope. Biden raised the minimum tax rates on corporations.

          If you make a claim then you also take the requirement of proof on you. Don’t make assertions if you have to throw a hissie fit when someone asks for proof. And its kinda funny that you talk about repeating facts, when your definition of proof is “yeah he did it”

          I am not going to make an account woth the New York Times, but going to assume you are right. Thought I find it weird that Obama’s “highest-earner-tax-rate-that-sharply-rose-in-2013” is not in his presidential records. Which would have made 2/3 of your claim flasw that all 3 last dem president raised… since you aren’t claiming anymore that Biden did :)
