Trump's latest pitch to GOP lawmakers would plunge the country into 'chaos': experts

According to reports about Donald Trump's closed-door meeting with Republican lawmakers this past week, the former president proposed an "unfathomably radical" change to the tax system that would benefit the super-rich while causing irreparable damage to the average taxpayer and the U.S. economy.

As MSNBC's Zeeshan Aleem wrote, the former president wants to throw out the current progressive tax system where the rich pay more and replace it with a system where the government would be entirely funded by receipts from tariffs.
