Deducting a CEO’s jet, but not a cop’s uniform

Donald Trump often declares his support, even love, for police, firefighters and other first responders. That isn’t stopping him, however, from nicking their wallets in the new tax law that he is expected to sign in early January.


Buried in the hastily drafted tax bill’s more than 500 pages are provisions eliminating “miscellaneous” deductions taken by almost 28 million taxpayers in 2015. Those are costs you bore to support your job or an investment you own or to pay a professional to prepare your income tax return.

To be fair I have doubts that Trump has people he socialize with who are street cops.

But I am very sure Trump has people he socialize with who have private airplanes.

So just like new tax plan Trump is taking from non-friends and giving to friends. This should not be surprise considering what was known about Trump before election.
