One of Joe Biden's main promises, in addition to a pledge to unify the country -- which in his own way he's already accomplished (1) -- has been to not raise taxes on anybody who makes more than $400,000 a year:
Joe Biden (@JoeBiden) ~ Let me be very clear: If you make under $400,000 you won’t pay a penny more in taxes under my administration.

Like everything else Biden says, that's a lie, especially considering that inflation is an additional tax on Americans.
Biden's chief press office gaslighter Karine Jean-Pierre was asked how Biden letting the Trump tax cut measures expire would not hit the middle class if he's still in office next year, considering how the law is written. Jean-Pierre did the usual thing of changing the subject and switching the blame to the Republicans:
Townhall.com (@townhallcom) ~ REPORTER: "The president said he wants to let the Trump tax cuts expire. If that law expires, it does raise taxes on almost every American. Does he still support that expiring without anything else in place?"
KJP: "The president is going to allow the Trump tax cut expire. He was very clear. But he will not raise taxes on anyone making less than $400,000/year ... It’s going to expire for the wealthy."
REPORTER: "The president can’t pick and choose which parts of the law sunsets. The entire law will sunset, and the Tax Foundation says that someone who's married, two kids, making $85,000 would pay $1,700 more in taxes. That's somebody under $400K—"
KJP: BUT REPUBLICANS.
But nothing, you stupid c*nt. Republicans gave big tax cuts to the American middle class with the Tax Cuts & Jobs Act of 2017, and if Joe Biden is re-elected, he plans on breaking his promise by allowing those tax cuts to expire. The implementation of higher taxes on the American middle class has NOTHING WHATSOEVER to do with Republicans, bitch.
Guy Benson (@guypbenson) ~ They’ve been lying about the tax cuts for years & they’re now trying to pretend that all their lies don’t really count. The fact is, if the Trump/GOP tax cuts expire, that will result in painful tax increases for all income groups in America.
And then they'd try to blame Republicans.
LizaJane (@liz_ledbetter) ~ Just flat-out ignore the question and statement. and then LIE.
That's KJP's modus operandi.
Kenneth C Damschen (@Sonorandesertra) ~ This is Bernstein’s Econ Professor.
BWHA HA HA HA HA HA!!! KJP is Jared Bernstein's (Chair of the White House Council of Economic Advisers) economics professor - yep, that would certainly explain why Bernstein is such a dumbass.
