Ronna Romney McDaniel, the chairperson of the Republican National Committee, on Sunday faced backlash after suggesting that 82% of Americans make more than $400,000 per year.
In a tweet on Sunday, McDaniel pointed to a video clip from a conservative media group, which asserted that middle income earners will see a tax increase under a Joe Biden presidency. However, Biden has said that he will not raise taxes on individuals making less than $400,0000 per year.
Joe Biden would raise taxes on 82% of Americans, and we cannot afford it! McDaniel wrote.

Poor are getting poorer and the middle class is exterminated.

The excess skin from being fat would be gone .Oh and I could have a reliable car and I would travel and that asshole free zone and cat sanctuary would already exist. And I would look like a rainbow panther via body mods and tattoos.

Doesn't 82.4% sound more convincing than 82%?
