Sanders: GOP Tax Plan ‘Just Grossly Immoral, and It Is Something that We Have Got to Defeat’

RUSH EXCERPT:

BLITZER: “This is just extraordinary. What it amounts to a massive transfer of wealth to the middle class to the working families to the top 1% and large corporations. Look, in the Republican plan, 62 percent of the tax benefits go to the 1 percent and both the national corporations. And then after running up the deficit by $1.4 trillion, Paul Ryan and the others come back there and say oh my goodness, isn't it terrible how high the deficit and national debt is? We have got to deal with that and the way we're going to deal with it is by cutting social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, education, nutrition programs, and basically everything that the middle class and working families desperately need. This is just grossly immoral, and it is something that we have got to defeat.”
