Taxing unrealized gains would be unconstitutional.

    Trump didn’t lower taxes for people during his term. Sure, he issued a temporary 2% tax rate reduction, but he’s a shifty little lair, and he eliminated several tax credits that benefitted ordinary working people, and people paying student loans, and students, and parents. My tax bill went up $2000 under his “tax reduction”. He’s a fucking scammer, and a lair, and it’s pathetic that 30% of Americans can’t see that.

      Don’t you believe everyone should pay their fair share?

      Or do you think everyone should pay your way?

        Your question attempts to shift the conversation to some ideological argument rather than addressing the reality of the statement. Taxes for ordinary people went up under trump.
