   Tax Relief for the Middle Class

   Passed $3.2 trillion in historic tax relief and reformed the tax code.

   Signed the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act – the largest tax reform package in history.More than 6 million American workers received wage increases, bonuses, and increased benefits thanks to the tax cuts.A typical family of four earning $75,000 received an income tax cut of more than $2,000 – slashing their tax bill in half.Doubled the standard deduction – making the first $24,000 earned by a married couple completely tax-free.Doubled the child tax credit.Virtually eliminated the unfair Estate Tax, or Death Tax.Cut the business tax rate from 35 percent – the highest in the developed world – all the way down to 21 percent.Small businesses can now deduct 20 percent of their business income.Businesses can now deduct 100 percent of the cost of their capital investments in the year the investment is made.Since the passage of tax cuts, the share of total wealth held by the bottom half of households has increased, while the share held by the top 1 percent has decreased.Over 400 companies have announced bonuses, wage increases, new hires, or new investments in the United States.Over $1.5 trillion was repatriated into the United States from overseas.Lower investment cost and higher capital returns led to faster growth in the middle class, real wages, and international competitiveness.

   Jobs and investments are pouring into Opportunity Zones.

   The purpose for tariffs on foreign goods is to bring the cost more inline with American made goods, i.e., promote buy American. So far as Trump making all this money as a President goes, he happens to be the only President in recent years that left the presidency with a LOSS (approximately 35% of his net worth). In contrast, Obama’s net worth increased by approximately 530%, GW Bush’s net worth increased by approximately 100%, Clinton’s net worth increased by approximately 1,850%, GWH Bush’s net worth increased by approximately 475%, Regan’s net worth increased by approximately 45%, Carter’s net worth increased by approximately 335%, and it continues. In case you’re interested, Biden’s net worth has only increased by approximately 10% so far.

    I recorded the debate and watched it today. How anyone that cares about America could vote for Biden after seeing that is beyond me. Especially if one looks at everything Trump accomplished during his tenure. The only thing voters should be concerned about is that their vote is for a President they believe will do the best for America; not the person’s personality, race, morals, etc. It’s fortunate we didn’t have the internet or current MSM during WWII or in ’60 or ’68.
