SEAN HANNITY: I got to tell you, I like this plan. He's telling half of America, 75 million Americans, you will pay nothing in federal income taxes. And while many of them haven't been paying anyway, he's highlighting it. Smart move politically.

PETER JOHNSON, JR.: Devil's in the details, but he's also hijacking Democrat and independent voters. He's going straight into the heart of Democratic America and saying, listen, look at what Trump is doing. The billionaire wants to cut average Americans' taxes. I don't know whether he can do it or not. Maybe the numbers are there, maybe they're not. But it is a dramatic proposal that's going to change the emphasis of this election big time.

HANNITY: Charles, I agree with you. I think this is a serious plan for all the people that were critical, saying there's no substance. Charles Hurt, he is also saying a couple of other things need to happen. He needs to get rid of fraud, waste, and abuse, and he also said he would cut new deals with other entities, other countries. And I think what is the most underreported part of this is a one-time repatriation of corporate cash held overseas, a 10 percent one-time rate. We have trillions of dollars that corporations will not bring back to this country. Now with a lower corporate tax rate of 15 percent, that means businesses, America's open for business. We will be the tax safe haven that corporations and businessmen will go to if this becomes law. I like it a lot.

HANNITY: When you point out that 75 million Americans under this plan, Peter, will not pay a penny in federal income taxes, that is a huge plus. How does Hillary grab the narrative back that Republicans hate the poor?

JOHNSON: Very, very hard. And this goes to the heart of what we said week ago, that Donald Trump needs a policy. He needs a plan. He's coming up with a policy and a plan. The hard left likes to say that he's the George Wallace candidate of the 21st century. Now, with this plan that has meat on the bones, he's saying this is all about economic inequalty, economic inaction in this country. It's about take-home pay. How much are you taking home out of your check every week or every two weeks? And he says, I want to restore the American dream. I don't know if it can be done, but it's igniting a new paradigm of thought in this country.

HANNITY: I think it's going to advance a narrative. Now short of maybe a flat tax, a fair tax which conservatives want, this is a conservative plan.
