Abigail Disney calls out Republican tax cuts
Interesting video in there. I could not find it on Youtube but there are links ot it on facebook, twitter and elsewhere.
Quote:
Documentary filmmaker, scholar, philanthropist, heiress and activist Abigail Disney—the granddaughter and great niece of Roy Disney and Walt Disney respectively—filmed a message for United States taxpayers in response to President Donald Trump and Republican leaders’ claims about the GOP tax cuts.
Disney said people should not believe what the Trump administration or GOP say happened with the tax cuts they received. Disney begins her video stating:
“Greetings from the 1%.”
She then clarifies that her forefathers did create the House of Mouse and shares a “Disney secret” as is her tradition for her videos. But then she makes clear her message is more important than a Disney behind the scenes peek. Disney states:
“…we in the 1% got a great Christmas present last year. I don’t know if you remember, it was called a very big tax break.”
“I didn’t need it, but the Republicans gave it to me anyway. And I hear if the Republicans do well in these midterms, they want to give me another one; an even bigger one, in fact.”
“It’s the darndest thing, isn’t it? I got a tax break, but you didn’t. Hmm…I’m sure that was an oversight.”
Disney then adds that many of the rich who received the tax cuts, were not sure what to do with them. So they bought superyachts. Which is a really big yacht. Disney continues:
“So anyway, 1%-ers are doing better than they ever have been doing and guess what? You are paying for all of it.”
“Remember when Republicans promised if you gave 1%-ers a tax cut, employers would increase your salary and hire more people and the economy would boom and there’d be rainbows and ponies and everything would be awesome?”
“In fact, Republicans have made that promise a bunch of times and I’m beginning to wonder when we’re gonna stop falling for that one.”
Disney then outlined what promises were made to taxpayers in more detail.

The election is not about Dr. Christine Blasey Ford and Brett Kavanaugh. The Trump administration and Republican goal is more tax cuts for the richest and fewer services for the poorest.
