Former President Donald Trump said he "hated" to pay his workers for overtime so much that he would hire "other people." The GOP nominee has recently proposed a blanket exemption from income tax for income earned from an individual's overtime work. Trump has also proposed more tax cuts including exemptions for income earned from tips and Social Security benefits. However, during a rally on Sunday in Pennslyvania, Trump revealed that he "hated" having to pay his workers overtime for the Trump organization. The former president went on to say he would "get other people in" and "wouldn't pay" the other employees for overtime. "And you know it's going to lead to great things a lot of people don't give. I know a lot about overtime. I hated to give overtime, I hated it. I'd get other people," Trump claimed.
Nothing new, only question is whether American voters will care that he's a crook this go-round.
