Donald Trump, the Republican presidential candidate, has promised to eliminate income taxes for U.S. citizens living abroad.
This move is part of his broader tax reform agenda as he seeks to gain support from Americans residing overseas, a group often overlooked in U.S. elections. The proposal aims to simplify the tax obligations of expatriates, who currently face 'double taxation' by both the U.S. and their country of residence.
This pledge comes as Trump intensifies his campaign efforts ahead of the 2024 election, where he faces a tight race against Democratic candidate Kamala Harris.

So he'll wave his magic wand and poof the taxes are gone? Candidates need to learn what a reasonable promise is.

So Trump wants to cut taxes for wealthy Americans living abroad while regular folks at home still struggle to get by – typical.
Finally! It’s about time someone acknowledges how ridiculous it is to tax people who aren’t even living in the country. Government overreach should be scaled back everywhere, and this is a good start.
