Trump Campaign Adviser Says GOP Tax Overhaul Is 'Death To Democrats'

Stephen Moore, a conservative economist who advised President Donald Trump’s campaign on economic and tax policy, said in an interview published Tuesday that the Republican tax overhaul currently under debate by the House is “death to Democrats.”

“They go after state and local taxes, which weakens public employee unions. They go after university endowments, and universities have become play pens of the left,” Moore told Bloomberg. “And getting rid of the mandate is to eventually dismantle Obamacare.”

He argued that the tax overhaul legislation, which would repeal Obamacare’s individual mandate, would accelerate “a death spiral” in its exchanges. “It’s death to Democrats,” Moore said.

Rep. Kevin Brady (R-TX), the chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, denied to Bloomberg that the tax legislation deliberately targets Democrats.

1. so one of them is lying

[htuttle]

2. Where the fuck do they find these guys?

[angstlessk]

3. Mr thinks he has it backward.

Okay, so when public employees can't get a raise, and folks can't go to college, and folks are dying due to lack of affordable health care, all caused by the repugnican tax bill...people will blame the Democrats?

4. and Mueller is death to the Trump traitors

Dems will survive.

Why did the orange haired chicken cross the road?
To drop a bunch of traitorous turds on his way to the feeding trough.
The Republican Party will succumb to their greed.

5. Stephen Moore is one of the biggest liars ever to appear on television.

How people can call him an economist with a straight face is beyond me. He is nothing but a liar and propagandist for the rich and the repukes.

[underpants]

6. He's a moron too

I only took two Econ classes and I know more than he does.

8. But he has memorized all of the trickle down economic lies and talking points.

At least some of the CNN hosts will kick his ass occasionally on some of his shit. Well, except for Anderson Cooper. He often just sets there quiet and lets Moore ramble on spouting a plethora of lies

[gratuitous]

7. Then why didn't they have this bill ready to go on Day One?

Instead of cobbling together some bastardized hand-written excuse for legislation that nobody can even read? You might at least stand up, Mr. Moore, if you're going to be talking out your ass like that.

9. Republicans hate Americans

10. Since most poor people are Democrats he literally has a point there n/t

11. Trump is president to all Americans - why is Stephen Moore so gleeful that Democrats will die?
