Yep. That should do it. That should teach Megyn Kelly a lesson – never ask Donald Trump a legitimate question at a Republican debate.
After his personal sexist attack in the Fox News host for asking him to comment on his past sexist statements, Donald Trump took to Twitter and retweeted a tweet calling Kelly a “Bimbo.”
I love the way Yahoo News put this. They said if Trump had his way, his tax hike proposal would have made Bernie Sanders proud.
In classic Trump fashion, the plan was big and bold. If enacted, Trump’s plan would have been biggest tax hike, in total raw dollars, in history. In a word, it would have been huge.
The year was 1999 and Trump was toying with the idea of running for President as a third party candidate. The idea, which Trump says he no longer supports, was to impose a one-time tax of 14.25 percent on every American worth more than $10 million and raise exactly enough money to pay off the debt.
Trump himself would have had to pay more than $700 million. But he didn’t care. He calculated his plan would erase the entire national debt and save the government millions in interest payments, allowing tax cuts for everybody else.
“Well, basically, this would be a one-time tax, 14.25 percent against people with a net worth of over 10 million,” Trump said. “It would pay off in its entirety the national debt of $5.7 trillion, and you’d save $200 billion a year. So taxes for the middle class would go way down, the estate and inheritance tax totally wiped out, and the Social Security system would be saved.”
