“Some of the very unfair deductions that certain people have been given who make a lot of money will not be available any longer”.

Trump’s inflammatory words about immigrants and Mexico, in particular, have obscured his blunt plans for immigration reform. Marco Rubio and Carly Fiorina are tied for third.
The top rate for the wealthiest earners would drop from 39.6% now to a mere 25%.
“Obamacare’s going to be repealed and replaced”, Trump said. Donald J. Trump’s Donald J. Trump Tax Plan will cut everyone’s taxes, yes, but the biggest cuts go to corporations and rich people and their obnoxious trust fund babies. Bush’s cuts would cost an estimated .4 trillion over a decade, with a net revenue loss of $1.2 trillion after projected economic growth.

What else is Trump gonna do to America great again, that no other Republican except for every single other Republican, wants to do? Trump also said he would eliminate the estate tax. “His tax plan begs the question”, asked David McIntosh, the Club’s president.
Trump said he has no problem with “fair” stories that paint him in a bad light, but for the most part, that has not been happening on the campaign trail, he said. He pointed out that about 40 percent of Americans are exempt from paying federal income taxes, and said the tax burden on the middle class “comes from other places”.
