Tory Newmyer: “Setting aside that President Trump’s pledge to slash middle-class taxes by 10 percent in the coming weeks will be next to impossible to pull off, it’s not clear the gambit even amounts to a good political strategy.”
“Congressional Republicans running for reelection haven’t wanted to talk much on the campaign trail about the tax cut package that was supposed to be their crowning achievement. Trump’s pitch for new cuts points to the reason why: It seems most likely to remind voters of what they didn’t like in the first package he signed at the end of last year.”
