Why should half the country have to pay taxes to a government that considers them domestic enemies?

Nancy Pelosi called all Republicans and Trump supporters domestic enemies

1) Republicans ain't anywhere near half the country.
2) Nancy Pelosi ain't the government. SHe has a role in the government, but her positions aren't government doctrine.
3) Would you apply that same logic to Trump insisting that Antifa are terrorists? Do you think Antifa shouldn't have to pay taxes?
@BlueVeins Antifa should have to pay for the destruction they have done to Federal and private property.
As far as point number one we will see in November
The president only plays a role just like the Speaker of the House...should we disregard all statements made by the person in that position?

Are you implying that the percent of voters who vote Republican is the percent of Americans who are Republicans? Because that's utter bunkum. That completely ignores the ~40% of Americans who don't vote AND all the moderates who voted red.

@ianR0ckwell That's an evasive answer. Should Antifa have to pay taxes as normal or not? And by that same logic, should all right-wingers be fined for the damage caused by far-right terrorists?

@BlueVeins sure but all the damage is left wing so the bill is high on the liberals. Pay up.

@MasterLee First of all, Antifa generally isn't liberals; they're usually anarchists, communists, anarco-communists, and socialists, with maybe some democratic socialists and social democrats sprinkled in. Second of all, do you actually support holding entire political factions accountable for the actions of their most violent members? Would you, for example, hold social conservatives accountable for hate crimes against LGBT folks?
@BlueVeins If they commit crimes they should be in jail...If they are not domestic terrorists ..they are not enemies but citizens and should pay taxes...

@ianR0ckwell I concur.
