Trump: 'Dems Want to Raise Taxes'

President Donald Trump claimed Democratic lawmakers hate the recently approved tax cuts and accused them of actually wanting to raise taxes.

Trump’s comments came in an early Thursday morning tweet, in which he also slammed the media for its coverage of the tax cuts.

The Massive Tax Cuts, which the Fake News Media is desperate to write badly about so as to please their Democrat bosses, will soon be kicking in and will speak for themselves. Companies are already making big payments to workers. Dems want to raise taxes, hate these big Cuts!
