10:51Now PlayingTrump wants tax cuts now because…hurricanes? Ana Kasparian, Jimmy Dore, and Ron Placone, the hosts of The Young Turks, tell you how Trump thinks tax cuts will help with hurricane relief. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
“On Wednesday morning, President Trump asserted that in the wake of two hurricanes that killed at least 80 people, caused many billions of dollars of damage, and displaced tens of thousands, tax cuts are “needed more than ever before. Go Congress, go!”
Shortly after Trump posted his tweet, news broke that five people were reported dead at a Florida nursing home that was damaged by Hurricane Irma.
Trump made the same case during a cabinet meeting at Camp David on Saturday held just as Irma was bearing down on Florida.
Earlier Wednesday, Trump tweeted that “[t]he approval process for the biggest Tax Cut & Tax Reform package in the history of our country will soon begin. Move fast Congress!”
There’s just one problem — there is no package as of yet. Trump is hoping that Congress will write a tax cut bill, but no bill has been produced. And Trump hasn’t gotten more specific than saying he wants to provide corporations and individuals with a massive tax cut. Months ago, his administration releasing a single sheet of talking points.”
