Opinion by Dana Milbank: Yes, voters “deserve to know” this GOP plan would raise taxes by $1 trillion

on what ITEP called the “only possible interpretation of Sen. Scott’s proposal” and found that the Republican plan would raise taxes by $100 billion a year, or more than $1 trillion over the standard 10-year budgeting time frame.Scott’s plan would also sunset — eliminate — all federal legislation over five years, under the assumption that worthy laws would be reenacted. That could mean an end to Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, everything else mentioned above — and potentially more.

none of these plans would become law with Biden holding a veto pen, but it’s significant that the NRSC chief — Donald Trump’s preferred candidate to oust “” McConnell as Senate GOP leader — is still standing behind it, and Republican candidates have generally not disowned it. The GOP-Fox News echo chamber has successfully branded Democrats as proponents of the “green new deal,” “defunding the police,” “socialism” and “woke” indoctrination in “critical race theory” — even though such ideas are not embraced by the vast majority of Democrats in office, and certainly not by anyone in a leadership position such as Scott’s.

The difference, of course, is Democrats don’t have an equivalent of Fox News, which repeats the propaganda du jour in multiple “reports” throughout the day. Democrats are also congenitally unable to stick to a message.

If it's on rich people, OKAY! Anything else is just greedy stupidity.

GOP is ripping off their mask so we can see them for what they really are.

After hearing Republican Senators and Trump praising Putin I wonder if some of them are giving Russia classified intelligence! Why is the CIA & FBI dragging their feet on treason!

The GOP base is so warped that most will celebrate this and gleefully sign any dotted line.

Yeah on the dam rich. They killing the middle class.

Raise taxes on everyone but their donors.

“The difference, of course, is Democrats don’t have an equivalent of Fox News” he says with a straight face while writing for the Democrats equivalent of Fox News. 😂😂😂

Scott’s gotta go. I’ve talked to many Floridians who were fed up of him as governor! How is it he keeps failing UP the food chain?

It’s good to know that Democrats are suddenly in favor of lowering taxes. 🤣

Just an Opinion .. thanks

Rick Scott is there to help one person... himself...!!
