FOXNEWSW Hannity December 23, 2017

Brought back into our country . Nobody. The biggest tax cuts in the history of our country. This is bigger than actually president reagans many years ago. Im very honored by it. Democrats dont like tax cuts. They want to raise your taxes. They dont want to lower your taxes. They want to raise your taxes and spend money foolishly. David the president being very loose in his speech today and as those lawmakers leave washington for christmas, major battles are set for when they get back in january. However, the president is after passing massive tax cut bill joining us now fox news chief neacialt ed henry. I have got to tell you im excited. The president began speaking we cut to it millions of people heard what he said today. And he was just being trump, ed. Yeah, look. He has been on defense for a large chunk of the year. You have got the mullen investigation out there he still has to deal with going into the new year. They failed on healthcare. They hope to take another crack at it in 2018. You had all these critics and nay sayers saying he is not going to get the tax cut. Republicans cannot govern. They have the white house, the house, and the senate. They stepped up here. You heard mcconnell and ryan and others say it was president ial leadership that got this across the finish line. We have heard Chuck Schumer for weeks now say that this is not going to trickle down. The workers, you know, the employees are not going to feel the Corporate Tax cut from 35 to 21 . Whats happened the last 48 hours here. David been determined before it was even written or read. Chuck schumer says republicans will roux the day. What about the political battle thats shaping up . Its going to be a difficult 2018 for republicans. Youve got to be fair and acknowledge that that any party in power when you have got a new president , barack obama faced this, bill clinton faced, this either party, you are going to likely face losses in the mid terms. But, this tax cut may mitigate that that may help this president big time. Because when Chuck Schumer says this is not going to trickle down to employees and then a whole bunch of Companies Like boeing and tat say we are giving out 1,000 bonuses. We may be hiring more people. We are investing in our company. Thats exactly what the president promised would happen and which democrats said would not happen. And so if you have an economy thats already been picking up steam in recent weeks and months, all of a sudden take off in 2018 thats going to wreck some of the democratic plans for major gains in the mid terms terms. David thousand more bucks in my pocket. Im paying less taxes. Double standard deductions. Im not paying taxes on that money. If that matters in the political narrative. Sure. David some numbers matter here and you say tat at t and they give 201,000. They are actually putting somewhere around 200 million, give or take an many employees into pockets in the economy. How does the democrat goes against that. They go out and buy a television for the holidays. They put food on the table. I went back and looked in 2012 barack obama in the election year, of course, was talking about a one time tax rebate that was small. 40. 40. You probably remember that on the radio show. David i remember that. Democrats were saying this is going to make a big difference. 40 . That was flog compared to the average family, middle class family 75,000, family of four is going to get a tax cut of about 2,000. That puts the 40 to shame. And by the way, you now have every single democrat in the house and senate who is on record voting for higher taxes and lower wages because they didnt want to see whats playing out now play out. If the republicans cant write a 30 second tv ad pointing out that every democrat voted for higher taxes, they should get another line of work. David thats a very good point. Republicans we are going to talk to the chair woman of the rnc in just a minute. They have got a big job ahead of them. They have got to go out. They dont need to sell it. It is signed. It is law. Thats what the president said. I dont need to travel. It will sell itself. Well see. David they need to gout and explain the benefits of it to the American People. They have to rebut the attacks on corporations. Its not just mega corporations its small companies. We have to point out immigration reform. Infrastructure, there is a lot, heck. Are they going to take another bite at the apple. They promised voters republicans, repeal and replace. They failed this year. Can they come back third way not obamacare not repeal and replace. Is there some way to move forward. Lets be clear there are challenges for the president heading into 2018 but this tax cut gives them a head of steam. David for sure. People paying obamacare taxes to the irs 80 of them make under 50,000. That means repealing that individual mandate, the funding mechanism is a big boost for americans. Major boost for americans. Opposite of what Democratic Leaders have been saying. Think about Chuck Schumer saying this is all about the rich. Nancy pelosi saying if this bill passes people are going to die. That he was the way they bill this. Maybe the opposite is happening. David a Christmas Present. Im wearing my christmas tie. Ed henry good see it you my friend. Joining us with reaction rnc chair ronna mcdaniel. Great to see you. We have talked through this entire process on radio and in person about this and a major achievement the president gets a major legislative win. And the rnc i said to them you guys have to take it to the streets. Where do you begin . It is historic day. Taps great Christmas Present. And President Trump led the way. You know, i think about a year ago when he was coming to my state of michigan and traveling this country, and recognizing that wages were stagnant, that people were suffering. And now today, he has said we are fighting for you. We are going to give the middle class a huge tax cut. We are going to make your paycheck bigger. We are going to increase jobs. Were going to grow our economy. Were going to fight for the American People. So, at the Republican Party we are going to keep hammering home the great accomplishments of this the and senator mcconnell and speaker ryan. And then we are going to remind them that the democrats were nowhere to be found. In fact, joe manchin went home and he saw a big banner that said well remember in november. Well, were going to make sure they remember in november that no democrat supported middle class tax cuts in helping the American People. David lets talk about the major driver of the economy and that is the corporate side of this. And im not talking about the mega corporations. Escorts, l corpse. Corps. S corps. Individual truckers call every day and ask what does this mean to me . What does it mean to them the people in that 50 to 75,000 income level . But they have a pass through. They have a business. What does it mean to them . Well, it means they are going to take more money home. Its twofold. Twofold in that we have cut so many regulations. The president focused on that at the first three months of his administration cutting regulations. And that is so important to the Small Business owner because they were so constricted by these cumbersome regulations that were preventing them from growing and being able to expand their businesses. So that. And then county tax cuts take more money home. Invest in their businesses and help in their families, this is great day for Small Businesses for like you said truck drivers, people across the country are going to benefit. Thats exactly who President Trump targeted with this huge tax reform bill. David all right. Ed henry brought it up a little while ago, ronna. Has a good point. Can the republicans write a 30second ad that lays out for the American People what does that ad say to the American People in say 30 seconds . Republicans are putting the American People first. And we are increasing their paychecks. We are going to focus on creating more jobs. We are going to increase wages and grow this economy. We are going to make america a better place for all americans. And we have delivered at every turn this year. We are are going to keep doing it give us the majority in 2018. David now lets talk about some other things. I would like to cover the things not always there. Tax cuts. Great Christmas Present for americans. What about other things . Regulatory reform. We have immigration on the table to deal with daca. We have so many issues. There has been a divide at spoins in the Republican Party. Is the party going to come together now that the president has a head of steam and with the help of the rnc words out, the president border to look at these walls. So much has been accomplished in this year as we look at the year in review. Look at the judicial appointments. Look at neil gorsuch, look at veterans accountability act. Look at increased military spending and deregulation and tax cuts. We are just going to keep doing that the president has signaled he wants to tackle fracture next year. Thats something that should bring bipartisan support. Theres a lot in the accomplishment column for republicans. Have democrats done this year . What have they accomplished . Nothing. Resist and obstruct and fighting this president at every turn even if its in the best interest of their constituents is not a message that theyre going to be able to run on in 2018. This tax bill has shown that we can come together as a party. We can governor as a party. We have a president who is leading the way. We are going to continue fighting for the American People. Our hand is out to democrats. We want them to come across the aisle and work with us. If they are not going to, we are going to get it done. Are they really going come across the aisle as we wrap this up. We heard Chuck Schumer say republicans are going to roux the day when they do this. Nancy pelosi, this is the worst thing. This is armageddon. Im paraphrasing. You know the words that are being used. And they are not reading the bills. Nothing new for democrats. , about but, are they really going to come to the table . There is some senators ohio think are going to be looking at 2018. Joe manchin, heidi heitcamp. Joe donnelly, john tester, sherrod brown. These senators in these red states where President Trump won, they want the photo op. With the president. They want to to show they are bipartisan. So far they are totally beholden to their leadership nancy pelosi and Chuck Schumer. When they go to the ballot box they will ask what did my senator do. We have the opportunities to pick up seats they f. They cant come across the aisle and work on other things especially middle class tax cuts and infrastructure. David thanks, ronna. By the way great to see you and your family. You worked very hard in the first part of this term. Good luck. Have a great christmas. You deserve a break. Merry christmas. Merry christmas. Thank you, david. David meanwhile liberals over at msnbc they have been trashing the president s tax plan. But it turns out they shouldnt be. Before we explain why. Watch this. . Is something donald trump, with all the cruchings and alcrunches. This tax plan proves autocrat across the world. Donald trump has perfected the art of the selfdeal. Look at them like lem mention, are they going to back him on firing mueller . Look at them. Looks like a north korean parade. There is a difference between giving it to the corporations and hoping that the corporations hand them out and we will see who else decides to do. This and giving it directly to the American People. In the form of larger tax cuts for the individuals, for the middle class and not just the wealthy or the corporations. So the effects of the tax bill started to reverberate today as the wealthiest people and the most powerful corporations in this country started almost literally scrambling to figure out how they are going to handle all the money the republican tax bill just gave them. So when your familys taxes go up because of this bill can you take comfort in knowing thats what you are paying for. Instead of attacking the g. O. P. Tax bill, maybe these liberal hosts should be thanking President Trump. Hires why. Hire heres why. Comcast the parpght company of nbc have announced they will be giving 1,000 bonuses to over 100,000 employees because of the tax bill. And the fccs actions on broad band. So think about that for a moment. Do the numbered a up to the rhetoric and joining us with reaction, Fox News Contributor deresolve murder dock, radio talk show most and Fox News Contributor Leslie Marshall and republican strategist noel nikpour. You talk about the civil rights industry a lot. This is the liberal Media Industry selling the narrative. Do the numbered a up when the very employees of comcast are getting millions of dollars that they will inject into the economy on their own . We heard from Chuck Schumer and nancy pelosi that this money will be going just to the ceos and the top executives. The day after this one tax cut plan was passed, were now finding thousand dollars bonuses for 100,000 employees. If you are Rachel Maddow or Joe Scarborough maybe 1,000 bucks is not a lot of money. Think about it cable guy, somebody working in Customer Service call center or maybe somebody who is working secretarial type position. That 1,000 will be quite a bit of money and appreciated this time of year particularly before christmas. David leslie good to see you. Is this a Christmas Present for america . I know the democrats want to paint this as a disaster. They havent seen it play out. But to deroys point, to the money going into the economy, some 200 million from at t going to employees, 100 million from comcast, may not matter to the rich elitist but what about the americans out there . Lets talk about the truth. The reason the at t did this i know we want to make it altruistic but its not. Basically the reason they did it was the 28 million tax incentive for this them this year because they would get screwed next year. In addition, lets talk about the hundreds i have jobs being establish away from individuals. Layoffs they are having at at t. Over 600 ever them even nor concentrate you had in illinois. David you are conflating layoffs. Neither are from the trump tax plan. The timing. David why bring it into the trump tax plan . They are protecting themselves because of the changes for them as a corporation. They actually will get a better tax break of 28 million more as opposed to they would lose 48 million more if they wait until 2018 versus 2017. They need to distribute the money and it makes them look good to say hey, here are some bonuses. So when you ask is it a Christmas Present . It may appear that way but thats not the reason. Is it a Christmas Present to the poor . Is it a Christmas Present to the elderly . Is it a Christmas Present to the disabled or to people that dont make between 300 and hundred thousand dollars a year or dont itemize their takes taxes. We would say no. David we know they dont have to itemize anymore if they are below a certain income level. Tat just spent 200 million to cover 28 million. Im not following the numbers here. First of all, i have got to tell you something. I am really angry. Im very angry with what the democrats have done to spin this. Number one, lets just look at corporation ceos, corporations employ 152 million American People. And i am really tired of the media spin that corporation ceo and Corporate America is evil. They supply us with jobs. Dher not heaval. The last time i checked both democrats and republicans they own dorptions. The other thing i would like to say which is just very irritating for me is the fact that you know this tax cut really amplifies what donald trump is trying to do. He got elected on the backs of the working man because the democrats werent representing them. He turned blue states into red states. Look at the ones that he won. Made good on promise. Going to see money in paychecks. Corporations corporations giving back to their employees. They are not evil doers, nice try for the democrats narrative to spin it to where, you know, the corporations are big fat cats and taking home a bunch of cash. They are giving it down to their employees. There may be one or two bad actors that leslie can maybe trump me on, burr the majority these guys, these women and men ceos of american corporations they are giving it back. David deroy, lets do some numbers here. I like the fact that when you look at some of the things, we have doubling the standard deduction 12,000 if you are single. 18,000 i like that addition if you are a single parent. And 24,000. That means if you are a hold hold under that 40 or 50,000, you sudden live got more of your money to use on top of that. Talking point hebrew increased; added of 500. Do the numbers matchlesslys narrative . They dont. This is money people wont be able to keep in their pockets. In addition to that, if you used to pay the penalty for not having obamacare, thats gone. Obama basic solid voluntary now if you want obamacare, can you have it. If you dont want to do it you dont have to have it any longer. Something called 59 plan going to let people put money aside if never putting kids k through 12 private school. Parochial school, what have you. Thats a fantastic thing that ted cruz put in. That is probably the biggest boost for School Choice
