They discussed tariffs and income taxes but to say that he promised to end the personal income taxes is not remotely true.(Yesterday, 02:33 PM)Hoot Gibson Wrote:With Election Day around the corner, Trump talked about his interest in ending the federal income tax in two high-profile interviews this week, harking back to the late 19th century, when the US relied on tariffs to fund federal spending. The former president has vowed to broadly impose tariffs, arguing they can generate trillions of dollars in revenue.(Yesterday, 02:25 PM)jetpilot Wrote:I didn't think so. I listened to a lot of Trump's speeches and I definitely would have remembered a promise to eliminate the federal income tax.(Yesterday, 02:21 PM)Hoot Gibson Wrote:(Yesterday, 01:59 PM)SEKYFAN Wrote: 1.

Did the list come from a reputable source, or from some propaganda source like MSNBC?
2. No taxes on tips.
3. No taxes on overtime.
4. No taxes on social security
5. Reduce Corporate tax rates.
6. Tariffs
7. Bring SALT back.
8. Eliminate the Dept of Education
9. Eliminate the IRS
10. Eliminate income taxes.
How many of these can he keep?
He didn't and the list is ridiculously over-simplistic.
I don't vote for promises. I vote for accomplishments that I liked. Trump had many and Kamala has none. It was a very easy choice. I look forward to seeing Kamala certify the electors.
Speaking with barbers in the Bronx, New York, in a segment aired on Fox News on Monday, Trump said, “There is a way, if what I’m planning comes out.”
A few days later, podcaster Joe Rogan asked Trump whether he was serious about replacing federal income taxes with tariffs.
“Yeah, sure, why not?” Trump said during his interview Friday on “The Joe Rogan Experience.”

I didn't vote for any promise and have no interest in discussing them. I will judge Trump on his actions, just as I judged his first term.
CNN and MSNBC are not accurate news sources. This campaign should have shown you that.
