Today, South Carolina Democratic Party Chair Christale Spain released the following statement on Donald Trump’s newest proposed tax scam:
“Donald Trump has never put the American people first. As president, he used his power to line the pockets of his special interest donors at the expense of working families, and he’s promised to do the same again if elected. South Carolinians know all too well we can’t afford another four years of the same MAGA agenda that sent Palmetto State jobs overseas and left our middle class behind. President Biden and Vice President Harris are delivering where Trump failed – bringing home thousands of jobs and investing in our communities – and we can’t go back.”
Here’s a look at the failed MAGA economic agenda Trump is promising to bring back:
- Trump is proposing expanding his extremely unpopular 2017 tax scam in a move that would once again cater to the ultra-rich and big corporations and add to the deficit in the process.
- This comes after Trump’s 2017 tax scam already rigged the economy for big corporations and the ultra-wealthy at the expense of the middle class in South Carolina.
- Trump’s reckless fiscal policy and tax giveaways for the wealthy grew our national deficit even before the pandemic. In fact, under Trump’s leadership, America went through one of the largest increases in the national debt ever.
