In the photo, a stack of paper towers over The Donald. It’s so tall, it actually doesn’t even fit in the shot.
Trump proposed tax reform last month.
“It will provide major tax relief for middle income and for most other Americans. There will be a major tax reduction,” Trump said in late September, according to CNN. “It’ll simplify the tax code, it’ll grow the American economy at a level that it hasn’t seen for decades.”
He adds individuals making $25,000 or less per year wouldn’t pay any tax.
“They get a new one page form to send the IRS saying, ‘I win,'” he says.
