Billionaire Trump hasn’t heard of a ‘corner store’ and laments poorer people ‘don’t think in terms of deductions’ at tax event
"During a Thursday event intended to promote the Republican tax agenda, President Donald Trump seemed to veer off script, riffing about how he had never heard the term “corner store” and calling the inflation that resulted from the Iran war “fake.”
”What is a corner store?” the president said to the crowd gathered for his roundtable. “I've never heard that term. I know what a corner store is, but I've never heard it described [as] a ‘corner store.’ Who the hell wrote that?”
Elsewhere, as he touted the suite of new deductions in last year’s GOP-led One Big Beautiful Bill legislation, the billionaire president seemed to suggest middle class and poor people don’t think about tax deductions."
