Nancy continuing to double down on stupid.
Democratic mega-donor Tom Steyer on Saturday urged House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi to stop referring to savings from the GOP tax plan as “crumbs.”
“Nancy was making a point that was true, but she said it in a way that disparaged the amount of money that they were getting,” Steyer said during an appearance at the California Democratic Party convention.
The now infamous line by Pelosi – that the bonuses given to American workers because of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act are “crumbs” – has since been used in several Republican fundraising ads to cast the Democratic Party as out of touch with middle-class Americans.
More than two dozen U.S. companies have raised their wages, announced domestic investments, or offered bonuses of $1,000 or more to employees since President Trump signed a Republican tax bill last year that cut the corporate rate to 21 percent.
