Faced with Wednesday’s deadline, the Trump administration is Deliberation To ease President Donald Trump’s stance on matching US tariffs with other countries, he will apply targeted or uniform tariff rates for certain trading partners. When he appeared in “Kudrow,” Laffer denounced the proposed tax hike, calling it “silly and stupid.”
“The only contribution he had in his first term was tax cuts and employment law. It was the most surprising bill ever. It lowers the corporate tax rate to 21%. It lowers the income tax rate from 39.6 to 37. Leave it as is. Take over the bill.

All of these are great issues,” added Raffer. “Don’t mess things up by adding another stick into the mud of raising the highest tax rate. It’s ridiculous. It’s stupid and it doesn’t work. Every time you raise the highest tax rate in the economy, the economy is slowing down. The rich are not paid any more in taxes, and the poor are hurting.”
Laffer then proposed focusing on what is called the “80/20” issue, such as immigration, voter integrity, and transparency. (Related: Scott Jennings says that GOP “must come to grips” with “the reality of a new ‘election'”)
“We don’t need these issues that cause all sorts of issues. We need to keep our homes next year. Larry. We really do it. Get the 80/20th thing. Immigrants. “Next year, we’ll finish the election, and then we can do all the other issues you want. But President Trump is heading towards the truth, world fame, time, commemoration type of things. He’s on the legendary list.”
