Devin Nunes is as big a Trump lickspittle as it gets.
And as a member of the House Ways and Means, there is no one who is more of an authority on the subject of how tax expenditures for special interests come out of everyone's pockets by way of higher tax rates.
Read this until you fucking get it:
"If people wanted to drop the corporate rate from 35 to say 33, 32, maybe 30, we could probably do it. But if you go back to several years that we looked at doing just that, the goal was to get to 25 percent, and by the time every lobbyist, every special interest group in town, representing every major corporation in this country, the tax rate was automatically all the way back above 30 by the time you put everybody's special loophole in."
