From the WSJ transcript, discussing the "middle class tax cut."WSJ: Then why need it? Why do you need this one, then?
Mr. Trump: Because I think its a good thing for the middle class. And dont forget, thats money that gets distributed back into the economy. In a different way than a business would do it, but its money distributed back into the economy. And we are going to dowere doing very well.
WSJ: Do you have any idea where thatshould the cutoff be for the middle class?
Mr. Trump: No, I justwere going to a 10%. No, thatll bethatll bewill be a great thing for the middle class. I think the middle class deserves it. The middle class has been forgotten for many, many years. I call it the forgotten men and women. They came out, and they like Trump. But the fact is the middle class has been forgotten for many years. And what were going to dothis would be a resolution, because theyre out, but were doing the resolution now.
WSJ: We cant do the resolution till they get back.
Mr. Trump: They have towhen they get back, well do the actual filings.
