President Donald Trump stood inside Circa Las Vegas this afternoon surrounded by dozens of supporters and ahead of a wall reading, “NO TAX ON TIPS.”

The pledge to end taxes on tipped income, first introduced over the summer at a rally in service industry-reliant Las Vegas, became a key pitch in his winning presidential campaign…

“I’m sure it had no influence on the state, the fact that we won this crazy, massive majority — a state that hadn’t been won by a Republican in decades,” Trump said, joking about the proposal’s popularity. “But I’m sure you haven’t heard, but we’re going to get it for you: no tax on tips.”
