For the fabulously wealthy, paying taxes is pretty much optional. They can borrow against their vast wealth, which is mostly an untaxed capital gain, without paying taxes. When they die, the capital gain goes to zero. And loopholes exist to bypass the estate tax too.

So which “Arabs” is he mad at? The ones who gave Kushner $2 billion. The ones who gave Trump a 747? The ones who let America build military bases in their countries. Or is he trying to make sure Stephen Miller knows he’s properly racist so he gets an invite to Katie’s next party?
