Democrat Sen. Jeff Merkley is very concerned that Americans might get to keep a little more of their own money, except he obviously doesn’t believe it’s their money:
Unbelievable. GOP just pulled off the biggest bank heist in US history & they’re delivering the loot – >$1 trillion out of our national treasury – to the wealthiest Americans & big corporations.

Merkley took a page from Sen. Chris Murphy that’s nothing short of shameless and maddening.

For the #Left, not confiscating your money is a cost to government…

This guy basically believes he has an inherent right to your money.

Get a load of this dipshit….he's pissed because American taxpayers get to keep more of their money. He actually thinks it belongs to him. #Liberalism is a mental disorder. https://t.co/GDCV7tm7uM
