It's misleading to call it eliminating it when they intend to make it permanent. Like when they told everyone they want to eliminate the tax on social security and medicare. They plan to get rid of the tax by ending the programs.
(I do realize this is an unpopular position, I just like truth and less confusion). KISS serves me well as does honesty. It would be interesting if Trump made it so everyone has to lie about the time.
