Everybody is going to get taxed. So that was a falsehood. In Georgia, we call that a bald-faced lie. The promise that we had that people who made under $250,000 would not be taxed is totally wrong, and he knew it. In Georgia, the people just say it's a bald-faced lie, meaning that he knew very well that he was not telling the truth when he said that.
