Copycat Kamala

[candycorn]

Thats the headline and as far as it goes, its a dumb idea from both candidates.

What is hilarious is that according to republicans, those who receive tips--those in the 47% of the population if you remember the Romney line....don’t pay federal taxes at all. So it’s curious how a tax break would help them to start with.

Below the fold, Kamala is talking about raising the minimum wage for tipped employees so they have a guaranteed income (as long as they are employed) and aren’t left to the whims of how their customers feel about their service. Trump isn’t.

I’d actually commit voter fraud and vote twice (at least) for any candidate who can get rid of gratuities for cruise passengers. Its crazy.

That's a fucking lie.

Kamala Harris did not vote for a bill that would tax tips.

Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump have both said they would stop taxing tips in their bid f

She voted for the 80,000 new irs agents, did she not?

Because the House Republicans won't pass it.

I'd rather she raise the minimum wage for servers, who have a lower mimum wage. That would be better for servers than no taxing their tips.

That's what Executive Orders are for in this day and age. No, Kamala just won't do it, she can easily convince Joe to issue one. She just won't.

Both candidates trying to buy votes. Pathetic.

When it comes to Harris, it’s worse. She could use her position now to start pushing the policies she is selling to voters vs making it conditional upon her getting elected. Actions not Words might resonate more with voters.

She has no brain. She has to steal from Trump.
