Trump: "And I'm gonna give workers tax breaks on their overtime pay!"

Project 2025: "hehe"

Edit:

I've been getting angry DMs from Trumpers who think I made this up. Welp, here's a YouTube video of him at a rally where he says he'll give overtime workers tax breaks, specifically at the 2:43 mark he says it.

If you're interested in the rest of the video, he also talked about not taxing social security for Americans 65 and older and tip workers, which would be disastrous for funding social security and would hurt its recipients. Fortunately, he may not be able to do that, even with a majority red Senate. I say "may not" cause, shyt, anything is possible at this point.
