Then explain why some countries with far higher taxes have lower unemployment please.

It seems that we attract alot of people from other countries for some reason. They swell the job market and that leaves less jobs for those already here.

20% of the population of the Netherlands consists of immigrants or children of immigrants, and unemployment is at 3%. Next.

3) He believes that if the lower income people have more money that they will spend some and it will be good fro the economy. Not if rich people have more money they will let a little fall out of their pocket for the rest of us.

Ready, set, go...

If by incredibly smart you mean that he's great with a teleprompter, and he does extremely well when speaking to people who already agree with him, sure that's true!

Anytime someone questions his attitude and views, he doesn't know what to do. Anytime someone asks a hard question his campaign refuses to talk to those people again. The 2 recent Joe Biden examples are only the latest.
