Grover Norquist, a longstanding anti-tax activist, is alarmed by the burgeoning support within the Republican Party for increasing taxes on the wealthy. Once unthinkable, this idea underscores a shift in GOP ideology, particularly after President Trump's arrival on the scene. Traditionally, Norquist has been a powerful voice, maintaining the Pledge that discourages tax increases. However, with Trump prioritizing different political agendas—such as tariffs and potential tax hikes—Norquist's influence seems to be waning as the party navigates evolving economic policies.
My opinion has always been that tax hikes are economically destructive and politically foolish, pushing away the very voters we should be serving.”},{
