I’ve never seen a day when Democrats weren’t crying. They are not men, just crybabies.
You can donate all you like to whatever suits you, including the high overhead scams. You just should not be able to deduct such donations from taxes.

Great, let's start with churches.
Democrats crying because Trump forces wealthy to pay "fair share" taxes!!
A whole bunch of political theatre for the people unwilling to do any thinking for themselve
jumping the exemption phase out from 120,700/160,900 to 500,000/1,000,000 would help blue state tax filers who were losing their deductions under AMT previously.

LOL!!!! Are you referring tot he sacramento bee of the state of CA franchise tax board who they quoted?
, but they seem very sure that the changes are bad because ... Trum
People earning huge income (say, $1 million) would probably not hit AMT because their tax bracket is 39% — well above the AMT rate of 28%. And itemized deductions for state and local taxes are mostly phased out at some point, so they weren't able to take advantage of SALT deductions anyway.
That's not how AMT works. You pay the higher of the standard calculation or the AMT calculation. You could have huge deductions on 1 million + (look at trumps 1 tax return that actually got reported) and still owe a lot under AMT
It really all depends on what kind of income and what kind of deductions. If you have a huge salary you'll miss AMT (because regular income tax will be higher) and lose SALT too because of the itemized deduction phaseout. I speak from past experience.
Hillary had almost complete backing of the filthy rich

Wait a minute Bob. Do you literally mean Churches only, or all religious institutions like Mosques and Temples?

All that are tax fee. Why do I have to subsidize religion? Especially the ones working their asses off to support political candidates. You can't have it both ways. If a church wants to be in politics then give up tax free first.
But you keep evading my question. Should the same rules be applied to mosques?
RC2006 saysHillary had almost complete backing of the filthy rich
HIllary had the complete backing of the koch bro's huge network of ultra rich libertarians. Jesus, the amazing things you learn on patnet. How did infowars miss that?
Cock brothers were against Trump and put thier money towards his Republican opponents. Hillary had the majority of wealthy elite.

The cook bro's network are the wealthy elite filthy rich. Now they are trumps cabinet. Are you really saying they gave almost complete backing to Hillary?
They did not support Trump being president and all of their republican choices lost. I never said they backed Hillary and they are not the only wealthy people in the game. Majority of the wealthy elites backed Hillary. You keep on focusing on the cock brothers they are not everything and they didn't have a winning horse in the race not sure why you keep focusing on them, maybe they are in there now but they were not at the start.
Majority of the wealthy elites backed Hillary.
How about Sheldon Adelson? Or many others as detailed below.
That still doesn't detract from RC2006's point that Hillary raised more money from the Wealthy, which is a fact.

It was also the first time since the 20s or 30s that Orange County voted majority Democrat.
And the Koch Brothers refused to give Trump a dime, since he talked against wonderful wage crushing illegals and one-sided trade.
Which is not the same as what you paraphrased above. Regardless, neither your statement nor RC's is a fact.

Nope, the majority of the wealthy elite sat on their hands

Link? $1.2B was higher than what Obama spent in 2012. Hillary raised twice what the Donald did. Seems that the 2016 race was par for the course for the past few races in terms of big money raised SuperPAC giving was more than twice to Hillary than Trump
