CNN’s Scott Jennings just exposed the fundamental flaw of the left’s vague stance on taxes.
In less than a minute, Jennings completely shut down his fellow panelist on the subject of taxes. First, she claims Democrats don’t want to raise taxes, then, when host Abby Phillip reminds her that the left supports raising taxes on the “rich,” it all falls apart.
Watch:
Something amazing happens when you ask a Democrat about taxes.
First, they claim they don’t want to raise taxes. Then, they say they only want to raise taxes on “rich people.”
But when you try to get them to define “rich,” the whole scam falls apart pic.twitter.com/HChopBHXNo

For a group that has crowed about making the “rich” “pay their fair share,” it sure seems like they haven’t hashed out some rather important details, such as “what amount of money makes one rich.”
X users couldn’t help but laugh:
She really thought she got you with “your friends.”

If ‘rich’ is undefined, why do their donors always know they’re not included?

There are roughly 800 billionaires living within the US. Is taxing 800 people going to solve the problems we have? Most politicians are millionaires. So, I doubt they’re planning on taxing themselves and their donors. Scott Jennings always makes excellent points.

I LOVE Scott Jennings! Can’t figure out what the heck he’s doing on CNN. He makes so much sense and he’s not afraid to speak his mind. When he lays it out, they can’t argue… because he’s right. Wonder if he will ever get through to the rest of the CNN airheads.

The left has always been about tax and spend . Her scam fell apart when she started speaking
