It kinds of feels like maybe we should be admonishing U.S. Rep. Ed Perlmutter for his tweets almost as much as the media does President Trump. Granted Perlmutter’s tweets are not over the top in tone…just substance. Particularly around this tax reform situation. Take for example his tweet today:
In Colorado, more than 594,000 households making less than $90,000/year will see a tax hike under the #GOPTaxBill. #copolitics https://t.co/p70TlVsB1B

Quelle horreur! Fortunately, former GOP spox Kyle Kohli rightly pointed out that the same data that Rep. Ed Perlmutter is using says about 85% (or, around 3,000,000 households making less than $90,000) can expect a tax cut.
Why is Perlmutter cherry picking his data? Sounds Perlmutter is trying to drum up fake news to us.
