MSNBC’s Ruhle challenges GOP to find one lawmaker who defends enormous Wall Street tax loophole
"The two hosts began by sharing clips of President Donald Trump vowing to get rid of the carried-interest loophole, once telling a Trump rally crowd that investors benefiting from the amendment to the tax code were “getting away with murder.” Appearing on CBS on Sunday, Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin absolved Trump of responsibility for the GOP keeping the loophole. “That was up to the House and the Senate,” Mnuchin said on Face The Nation. “The president likes the overall bill and there’s obviously little parts of this bill he would have tweaked differently himself. The president couldn’t get every single little detail he wanted and that was one that got left out.” With Mnuchin laying blame on GOP lawmakers, host Ruhle challenged Republicans to send someone – anyone — on their show to defend the continuing giveaway to the rich."
