Matt Drudge trashed the new tax reform proposal by congressional Republicans as a plan no different than something Democrats might have designed.
“First keep Obamacare, now raise taxes on top earners?” the founder and editor of the influential Drudge Report wrote on Twitter, referring to a reported “surchage” in the plan for the wealthiest earners. “At least illusion there is difference between parties is finished once and for all!”

In another tweet, he said, “Big winner if they pass it: No income tax states. Nashville and Austin will be as crowded as Manhattan…”
The bill was pitched by Republican leaders as an overall tax cut for middle-income earners and a simplification of the tax code that would make filing taxes easier for individuals.
It’s backed by Trump, who Drudge generally supports.
