Vegas Waiter Sees Trump's No-Tip Tax Break Fall Short Amid Tourism Slump

AFP reports that in Las Vegas, Trump's pledge of 'No Tax on Tips' has not shielded service workers from economic pain as tourism declines and inflation erodes tips. A waiter says tips are down dramatically and his casino restaurant has reduced staff, while the Culinary Union says thousands of hospitality workers are affected. Though the policy offers a federal tip deduction, many workers feel little benefit amid weak foot traffic and rising costs, complicating Trump’s appeal as elections approach.

Lombardo Skips Public Show as Trump Promotes No-Tip Tax in Las Vegas

President Trump visited Las Vegas to promote a no-tax-on-tips provision from his tax bill, but Nevada Gov. Joe Lombardo did not appear publicly with him, saying he would meet separately. The event highlighted a deduction of up to $25,000 for tipped income (average around $7,100; more than six million claimants), though critics warn tipped workers could lose under broader cuts to social programs. The conversation also touched on gas prices—Nevada near $5 per gallon and national prices above $4—with officials predicting prices may stay elevated into 2027; Lombardo’s absence onstage is seen by some as distancing himself from Trump’s economic agenda.

White House DoorDash PR Stunt Draws Backlash Over Its Staged Delivery

Trump staged a White House DoorDash delivery to spotlight the No Tax on Tips provision of the bipartisan One Big Beautiful Bill, but the moment drew online questions about staging as the Dasher Sharon Simmons was identified and DoorDash’s PR chief insisted she was a real worker, not a paid actor. Some outlets failed to label the event as planned, fueling backlash and conspiracy claims. The policy takes effect in 2025 and is part of broader bill changes including Medicaid/SNAP cuts and expanded work requirements that critics say Trump did not address during the stunt.
