    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 :)
