House Minority Leader
Nancy Palsi Pelosi today dismissed as "crumbs" the
recent wave of bonuses given to workers by large corporations in the wake of
the Republican tax law's passage.
"In terms of the
bonus that corporate America received versus the crumbs that they are giving
workers to kind of put the schmooze on is so pathetic. It's so pathetic. I would hope that with their big advantage of
bringing money home at a very low rate that they would invest in
infrastructure and things, but our experience has been that they will do
dividends, do stock buybacks, and things like that. I think it's
insignificant," Pelosi added.
This was a devastating
and incredible gaffe from Pelosi and should comprise political ads by the RNC
for the duration of the 2018 midterm elections.
The
script for the ads should read: “If you
like your wage increases and tax cuts, you can keep you wage increases and tax
cuts unless you elect a Democrat in November.”
I guess when you’re now Oprah’s party, the tax cut to working class does seem like crumbs— Stephen Miller (@redsteeze) January 11, 2018
