Ivanka Trump demands
passage of tax plan giving her a $4 billion handout
Ivanka Trump
was infamously quiet as the Trump administration attacked
equal rights and the environment, but she has jumped directly
into the fray to push a tax scheme that would give her
billions of dollars.
... The scheme Ivanka and
other Republicans are demanding calls for tax hikes on the middle
class and repeal of the estate tax, which only a tiny fraction
— about .2 percent — of the very wealthiest families
pay.
... That means
Ivanka and her siblings could expect to receive as much as $4
billion, money that would be diverted from public coffers and instead
piled on to the massive wealth that the Trump family has already
amassed.
... Yet she instead told an audience in
Richboro, Pennsylvania, that “the stated focus consistently over
and over again from this administration is a priority on
middle-income American families.”
She conveniently omitted
the windfall she would personally receive, and she did not bother to
mention the additional burden that would be put on families across
America ...
... A “win” for Trump on
taxes would keep loopholes for the ultra-rich in place,
while rewarding them for simply breathing. Ivanka Trump, by her
actions, is again complicit in pursuit of the worst for America.
