      1. Trump tax cut reduced taxes for 82%; Biden's the one who chose to frame his plan as undoing what Trump did. https://www.factcheck.org/2019/04/bidens-campaign-kickoff-claims/ … 2. When you include his proposed corporate tax hikes, the models show nearly everyone's after-tax income goes down. https://budgetmodel.wharton.upenn.edu/issues/2020/3/10/the-biden-tax-plan-updated …https://twitter.com/brianklaas/status/1301230951788417024 …

      Biden wants to raise taxes on Americans who make more than $400,000 a year. (And as you might have guessed, 82% of Americans do not make $400,000 a year, so this is a lie). https://twitter.com/DonaldJTrumpJr/status/1301220324634173441 …

      Your defense is seriously that a) Biden said he was undoing Trump's tax plans, so look at that instead of his actual policy proposals; and b) a tax on corporations (who are not people) is the same as raising taxes on 82% of Americans because of an after-tax income model? Really?

      If your tax hikes reduce people's after-tax income, good luck telling them that you did not raise their taxes.

          No serious person would count an increase in the corporation tax as a tax on 82% of American households, which is the original claim. Plus, many models showed a trickle down effect (of increased after-tax income) to Trump's corporate tax cut - and they were badly over-optimistic.

          Saying corporate tax increases don't affect American households is like saying because you aren't the one writing the check, you don't pay any gasoline taxes. The increase of price at the pump is paid by the consumer whether or not they're physically writing the check.
