Paul Ryan deletes tax bill tweet after being dragged for not understanding math
Someone teach the Speaker of the House how to count.
House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI) is learning that Twitter can be a cruel place.
In a tweet posted Saturday morning, Ryan praised the new tax law spearheaded by the Republican party. The Speaker of the House shared the story of a secretary at a Pennsylvania public high school who was “pleasantly surprised her pay went up $1.50 a week.” The total comes to $78 a year in savings and she told the Associated Press the savings will allow her to pay for an annual Costco membership.
Ryan proudly shared this story on Twitter — only to be met with outrage and amusement. He deleted the tweet less than 3 hours later.
