Another day, another bad poll for the GOP....
A new poll shows that the GOP’s proposal (we won’t even call it a plan, since there aren’t any details) to give tax cuts to the wealthy and explode the deficit isn’t going over well with the American people. This ABC News/ Washington Post poll shows a majority of Americans opposing Trump’s tax plan to cut taxes for the wealthy. Key excerpts:
“Given what the public knows about it, they oppose Trump’s tax plan by 44-28 percent, with a substantial 28 percent undecided. Half of those polled expect the administration’s plan to reduce taxes on the wealthy, while just 10 percent think it’ll reduce taxes on the middle class. A quarter expect equal treatment.”
“A tax break for the wealthy would be out of step with public opinion. Overall, a broad 78 percent favor trimming income taxes on middle-and lower-income Americans, while just 33 percent support reducing taxes on higher-income individuals.”
