My conservative co-worker is PISSED about his taxes!!! I mean pissed!

He says he usually gets around $500 back and is having to pay close to four thousand this year! He didn't vote for Trump as he thought he was an arrogant asshole but he wrote in Pence's name so he is pretty right wing. He texted screaming "I guess I am not rich enough!"

Here was another text:

"Well don't be surprised if you guys are writing out checks this year cuz I am.. looks like we were sold a bill of goods."

Here was his final text:

"Right now I'm pretty pissed as you guys can tell. But I will take it in and probably have _______ look at it and see if I am right or see if I missed something."

You had to be willingly blind not to see this coming from the republican casino hustler* and his crew of corrupt KGOP republican cronies.

so our boss will have to pick that up. That is probably $2,000 of it. Yes, $4,000 doesn't sound right to me either.
