Mitt Romney Well, again, I go back to the point that the, that the funds are being taxed twice at two different levels.

We face critical challenges — mounting national debt, climate change and the ambitious authoritarians of Russia and China. Neither President Biden nor former President Trump are leading their party to confront them.
