This is absolutely going to get him votes. If he does it, is another thing entirely.
There are between 8 to 10 million Americans that don’t live in the US. Every penny they make is taxed to Uncle Sam even if they don’t step foot in the country their entire life.
It is universally hated. And the only other country stupid enough to do this is Eritrea.
You know how you get 8 million votes? Drop income tax. That doesn’t even count all the red state domestic Americans who also don’t want taxes (but don’t understand tarrifs and therefore local pricing).
If he campaigns on this, versus just saying it one time, he will absolutely 100% win.
It’s somewhat accurate to say “every penny they make is taxABLE to Uncle Sam” which is different from saying 100% tax rate. Americans living outside the US still need to file a tax return and report all their income, and pay tax on it to the US, even if it is from a foreign source. That said they could claim the foreign tax credit if they paid tax to a foreign regime on that income already, or the foreign income exclusion under some circumstances which would reduce their taxable income to the US.
It’s somewhat accurate to say “every penny they make is taxABLE to Uncle Sam”
It’s completely meaningless but hyperbolic to say that because that’s the way taxes work in every country. No country randomly ignores random amounts of income from taxation. Also, there is the concept of tax exempt income and the fact that pennies and dollar fractions are completely ignored on tax forms.
Calm down professor. The US is one of the only countries in the world to tax worldwide income, even if they are a nonresident of the US. That is NOT how it works in every country.

There is no where near a 100% income tax rate LMFAO. Obviously nonsense claims do not make a good argument.
MAKE INFLATION GREAT AGAIN

Here’s a pretty good article about it from the WSJ if you want to educate yourself on the subject: https://www.wsj.com/articles/BL-WB-34630
We all know that and this is not what is being discussed genius.
Taking into considering “every penny” of your income IS how it works in every country.
You’re a very unpleasant person.
You’re a huge dumbasshole.
