To suggest as Tim did that tax cuts for all people is class warfare

I suggested nothing that resembles your statement.

What I called class warfare, is not "tax cuts for all people", but rather something closer to the opposite of that, harshly attacking tax cuts for all people, because it also means the wealthy will pay less, and going further than that and calling it a giveaway to the wealthy, when it is nothing of the sort. The money still flows from the wealthy to the government, not the other way around.

Classically "class warfare" is typically about setting an economic class against another. The workers against "wealthy capitalists", being the big historical form. Obama talks more about the middle class than the wealthy, but the idea is the same.
