Trump says he "wouldn't pay" employees overtime because he "hated it"
Briefly

During a rally in Erie, Trump shared his experiences as an employer, stating, "I hated paying overtime. A lot of people don't give. I know a lot about overtime." His nostalgia suggests a deep understanding of employer challenges.
Trump's proposal to eliminate taxes on overtime wages is part of a broader strategy, expressing, "I think it's going to be economically beneficial for people—especially for police officers, nurses, and construction workers who often work overtime."
Despite his skepticism, a recent Tax Foundation study noted the tax cut could cost $227 billion over a decade, raising the budget deficit substantially. Trump mentioned, 'I should not say this, but I'd get other people in. I hated it.'
