- 5 years ago
Donald Trump Jr. slammed Kamala Harris on Tuesday over tax refunds.
Donald Trump Jr. went after 2020 presidential hopeful Kamala Harris on Twitter over tax refunds.
Harris had tweeted on Monday: "The average tax refund is down about $170 compared to last year. Let's call the President's tax cut what it is: a middle-class tax hike to line the pockets of already wealthy corporations and the 1%."
"Of course refunds are down," Trump Jr. wrote in his reaction to her tweet. "People are paying less in taxes and the code is simplified. A refund means you overpaid and got money back. When you pay less the refund will be less."
"Do you really not understand that?" he continued. "Now do the effect of proposed Dem tax hikes has on income!!!"
CBS News notes: "The U.S. Treasury projected that 2.5 million fewer Americans would get a tax refund this year, and the refunds in the first week of filing season were 8 percent smaller than the previous year."
