aim to rush more income back to hard working americans. speaking of the pass throughs and the president saying that this tax plan wouldn t benefit him, don t you think it would be a good idea if the president proved that by releasing his tax returns? like i said, what we re trying to do here and what we re working on is to increase the lifestyle of american citizens. our hard working citizens that get up every morning and work as hard as any people in the world to try to keep more of their hard earned income. that is what we re all about. that is what our tax plan is about. our tax plan is trying to get the economy to get the growth rate back to a normal alized rate before 3%. yes, we just had 3.1%. people didn t think that we could get there and we re at 3.1%. can we go higher? 1% of gdp means $3 trillion. it more than pays for a tax cut. that s what we re trying to do with our plan.
people who voted for donald trump even if they didn t say they were going to do so to pollsters? yes. it s blatantly obvious. either a hidden vote or every single polling model and approach was just wrong. never mind the actual data mo l modeli modeling, voter modeling, goes well beyond the polling, and the clinton campaign and the republican national committee did that. the rnc said that they had it basically within two but on the lower part of that. but i think that he is absolutely right that this is a global movement that has just reached the shores of the united stat states. that it was as donald trump said so many times in the last of his campaign, brexit-plus. he was right. people are so fed up with the way things work or don t work in this town by business at usual and more importantly to his
