Trump Can't Handle The Fact That He Isn't As Good As Joe Biden

Trump complained on Wednesday that Democrats won't support his extended tax cuts for the rich, which suggests that being unable to pass bipartisan legislation like Biden bothers him.

Donald Trump held another one of his rambling sessions at the White House where he appeared at the swearing in of a Fox News personality to be the acting US Attorney for Washington, DC, but it was a question about Elon Musk’s criticism of his so-called “Big Beautiful Bill” that raised an interesting point.

Trump said when asked about Musk’s criticism:

 Number one, we have to get a lot of votes.

We can't be cutting, we need to get a lot of support and we have a lot of support. We had to get it through the House. The House was, we have no Democrats. If it's up to the Democrats, they'll take the 65% increase. If that doesn't get approved, this country is gonna have a 65% increase in taxes and lots of other problems.

Big problems, almost bigger than that. But we'll have a 65% increase as opposed to the largest tax cut in the history of our country. We will be negotiating that bill and I'm not happy about certain aspects of it, but I'm thrilled by other aspects of it. That's the way they go. It's very big. It's the big beautiful bill.

But the beautiful is because of all of the things we have. The biggest thing being, I would say the the level of tax cutting that we're gonna be doing. We're gonna make people really be able to, we'll have one of the, we'll have the lowest tax rate we've ever had. In the history of our country and tremendous amounts of benefit are going to the middle income people of our country, low and middle income people of our country.

So we're gonna see what happens because the Senate, as is negotiating with us and they have to then go back to the house and, it's got a way to go. But I have to say, Speaker Johnson and Thune have done an incredible job. John Thune has done a Fanta leader, Thune a fantastic job, and they're working together with me and others.

I think we have an amazing, if we pull this off, remember we have zero Democrat votes because they're bad people. There's something wrong with them. They're, they'll let people pour into our country. Single biggest problem is we had 21 million people pour into our country, probably higher than that, and the people that weren't supposed to be here, and many of those people are bad murderers, drug dealers, the mentally insane.

They were closing mental institutions all over the world, not South America, all over the world. They're coming into our country and we're getting them out. We're having a hard time because some judges aren't making it very easy for us, and it's tough enough. They approve that. They allow that to happen to our country.

We don't have one Democrat vote, and if I were a Democrat, I'd be voting for this bill and I'd get elected to any position I want as a Democrat. They're crazy. They're voting for a 65% tax increase. They're only doing it for hatred. They're not doing it for any reason. They know it's terrible politics, in my opinion, but so we have no Democrat votes.

That means we have to get almost all Republican votes, and I think we're very close to doing that. I think it'll be very successful.

Most of what Trump said was a lie. Taxes would increase if the Trump tax cuts for the rich expire, but most of that tax increase would impact the wealthiest Americans. Democrats aren’t opposing the bill out of hatred or spite. They are opposing the bill because it benefits the wealthy, while taking away healthcare and food assistance from millions.

There was also something else bothering Trump, and it involved Joe Biden.
