Trump's been saying he'd like to lower income taxes and raise tariffs.

He also has a whole host of aspirational tax proposals saying he would want to remove taxes on Social Security benefits and remove taxes on tip income for tipped workers.
matched
The big thing that's coming up is he wants to extend the tax overhaul that was passed in 2017.
matched
And that's the big individual tax overhaul that's set to expire next year.

She, on the other hand, would raise taxes on the rich, proposing a new top capital gains rate of 28% for the highest earners.
matched
She'd also proposed increasing investment income surtax.
matched
That's a 3.8% tax on capital gains and dividends, interest and other income that kicks in
matched
at $200,000 of income for single taxpayers and $250,000 for married couples.

So she says she supports the Biden administration budget proposals, which would include raising that tax to 5% at a $400,000 income level.
matched
So if Congress does nothing, which if there's a divided government, who knows what might happen, the tax brackets would revert back to the pre-2017 tax bill.
matched
And that means the tax rates would rise across income brackets.
matched
And the top 37% rate, for example, would rise to 39.6% and kick in at a lower level of income.
matched
So some financial advisors I spoke with who have wealthy clients say they've actually been starting to sell stocks to lock in that 20% capital gains rate.
matched
And even at lower levels, that makes sense.
matched
Some have been exercising stock options.
matched
And I even talked to a man who's been finishing up selling shares in his business.
matched
So like some people, they think like whether it's Trump or Harris, that it's just our national debts kind of beyond comprehension is the way he put it.
matched
So eventually taxes are going to have to go up.
matched
And also there's the issue with the tax cuts when as Congress is debating all these different individual tax provisions that are
matched
set to expire at the end of next year, and they're looking at all these proposals, whichever candidate it is for new tax cuts, they're going to have to get money somewhere.
