The sad truth is that now that she said this, every maga cultist will run around saying that they passed No Tax on Tips into law. The truth doesn’t even matter and even people who work for tips will deny reality to uphold the party narrative if they are right wing.

I’m not sure how this country gets back to reality. I’m a positive, optimistic person by nature, but I’m also a realist. I don’t think this is going anywhere good. The left has no answers for a party that just makes up whatever reality its voters want to hear.

And fantasy is a lot more appealing to the average American than hard truths and slow work toward a better future.

I know all the right wing influencers are saying things like Democrats voted no for no tax on tips

u/psilocin72 Feb 27 '25

Yep. This plan came from democrats and now people are saying that democrats are blocking it. Reality means nothing in our politics anymore.

Lies work when it’s “they’re eating the dogs.” But people are going to learn real fast that their tips are still being taxed.

u/psilocin72 Feb 27 '25

Yeah. They will know, but will they say anything about it? Will right wing people who work for tips join with the left to call out the lies?

Based on what I have seen for the last 8+ years, I don’t think they will. They will remain silent or lie. I don’t want to think that, but it’s the logical hypothesis as I see it.

I’m so sick and tired of Republicans just lie all the time and stupid people keep buying their lies.

Not taxing tips is a horrible idea anyway. In about 6 months everybody will be working for "tips" and the employers won't be paying their employees a living wage.

While I tip generously today, I believe this whole tipping thing needs to evaporate and employers should pay actual living wages while doing actual performance reviews to determine wages.

To be fair she probably didn’t even read it.

u/Doc_tor_Bob 🇺🇲 Fighting the Weird Feb 27 '25

To be fair I doubt she could read

Liars gonna lie

Billionaires: "I'm now working on a $0 salary. However, I'm getting $4 billion in tips a year."

u/reality_bytes_ Feb 27 '25

Now she just needs kid rock to make some maga song praising her and the handy she gave him in the movie theater…

u/Cold-Permission-5249 Feb 27 '25

I don’t understand why she would even bother lying about this. It’s not like people aren’t going to figure it out once they get taxed on their fucking tips.

u/lgodsey Feb 27 '25

The cynical part of me (which is all of me now) wonders if a "No Tax On Tips" law could be passed without a monetary limit so that Trump could use it to protect his bribes.

u/PvtHudson Feb 28 '25

I guess that means no taxes on the handies she gives.

u/JCButtBuddy Feb 27 '25

Tips need to die, so many people sold out the country because of the promises of small personal gains. They don't care who they fucked as long as there was a chance of not paying taxes on their income. Tips are income, just like everyone else's income, if they don't think tips are income then they shouldn't expect them anymore.

I’m a self employed stylist, what’s to stop me from offering my services for $2.13 an hour with a built in gratuity of 200%?

u/tikifire1 Feb 27 '25

Or a company paying a CEO $1 a year salary and $10 million in tips?

Nothing.

She doesn't know what it is she voted on. What a surprise.
