PATRIOTIC MILLIONAIRES RELEASE TWO WORD STATEMENT ON TRUMP’S NEW TAX PLAN
The so-called “traitors to their class” have one thing to say
Washington, DC – Today in response to the President’s new tax plan, the Patriotic Millionaires have released a two-word statement:
“Patently absurd.”
Top economic advisor to Donald Trump Steve Schwarzman has called the Patriotic Millionaires “traitors to their class” for their outspoken views on the economic system. The group first came together in 2010 to demand an end to the Bush tax cuts for millionaires, instantly sparking the public’s attention. They are widely credited for moving the Obama administration to ending the Bush tax cuts. Overnight, the group became a media sensation. Over the last six years, the group has generated hundreds of millions of dollars’ worth of media attention, appearing on outlets from the Daily Show with Jon Stewart to the PBS NewsHour; from the front page of the Boston Globe to The History Channel. The Patriotic Millionaires’ reach is so vast that the President of the Czech Republic referenced the group in an address to the Czech Parliament. The largest television station in Japan and a major Swedish magazine both did feature stories on the group. They had the honor of joining the President in the White House in 2012 for his Tax Day address and in 2014 for the signing of the Executive Order raising wages for federal contract employees.
