Trump keeps saying that taxes will increase by 68% if the GOP bill doesn’t pass, but that number’s far from any realistic scenario.

Does anyone know how he ended up with 68%, or was it just pulled out of thin air?

Steve this is Trump. Of course it’s an amount he just pulled out of the air. Your charts have proved this over and over again that the numbers that he claims are not true.

Yes. He had stated publicly the day before this that the popularity of the new GOP bill was 68 %. !! He mixed up the tax rate and the tax's popularity. Another example of his profound confusion.
