    Not really confusing that there are Dems who want to reduce taxes. There’s still a good number of moderate to conservative Dems in the state.

    What is confusing is how he’s going to do it. Set aside money for a foundation? Really? Sounds like he’s wanting to create something like an endowment that is invested and then (hopefully) pays out more over time. Seems like you’d have to raise taxes a whole LOT more to begin with.

    Don’t expect him to get much anywhere in primary.
