People *like* him.
We all know reading comprehension just isn't your strength.
he is a German citizen living and working in Germany, what other qualifiers are there which cause him to be affected by "Republicand"

who is the 'less tax returns' nonsense supposed to appeal to anyway?
liberal college students who have never filed taxes in their life?
Anyone who actually pays income taxes already knows what withholdings and returns are and can comprehend whether they're part of the 80% of taxpayers getting a tax cut, or the 20% of SALT-shafted coastal liberals with multiple houses that got a tax hike.
And virtually every time I've seen 'muh tax returns' brought up on mainstream news outside of the propaganda outlets like TPM, its been coupled with the hosts explaining how most people are getting tax cuts and returns are down because withholdings are down.

Thats not what i quoted.
Taxes were largely cut and you are talking about tax returns being lower. yes when taxes are reduced and a few deductions were removed (that you would have described as 'loopholes' for the past 10 years) the returns are lower. The party of high taxes complaining about tax returns being lower is hilarious. its a joke.
That isnt an endorsement of higher taxes.(which is something you did on a regular basis before it hit you as the exception)
No one intelligent is buying your spin on my position.
Are you now willing to advocate lower taxes?
Or are you just opposed to the removal of the part where everyone else is supposed to subsidize your state government's excess spending, so your own taxes will go down while everyone else can get fucked?
it just sounds like commie is personally affected by this change (increase in take-home pay yet didn't bother to adjust withholding at all, another personal problem) and is blaming the government for his taxes 'seeming' higher (isn't that rich).
