    he bragged about it in one of the 2016 debates with hillary. he said not paying his taxes makes him smart.

    so those of us who paid more than $750/year in taxes are dumb i guess? here i am like a sucker paying tens of thousands a year!

    If this doesn't swing the vote of those who are undecided - I'd be baffled. Trump has nothing in common with the average American... just another leech.

    a little nuance is in order.

    The tax returns also show that many of his HUGE LOANs will be due in less than 4 hrs. It is likely that he will not be able to pay them off.

    It’s not be far-fetched to say Deutsche Bank will foreclose on his many properties

    If he is legally paying as little as possible, more power to him, however, all of his followers that complain when companies do the same thing need to pick a side

    so i will make an LLC all you guys pay me for consulting you on this bbs. you can write it off as a loss of income and pay zero!

    hint the real story is taking another balance sheet to show profitability and getting loans against that or just straight freebies. this is about avoidance obviously. and oh yeah forrest gump was a bust and amazon makes nothing. this isnt new folks and guys like enron were only recent. its just some of us actually "work" and have w2s smart ? or shady ? i guess we could all do it become 1099s huh

    so much for paying with any sense of duty or morality. taxes are for suckers like you and me

    as corrupt as they come.

    Trump has a long history of stiffing his creditors. DB is the only bank stupid / corrupt enough to lend $ to a cheater like Trump

    republicans have shifted from pro business / big business to "declare losses" as a strategy

    That’s the exact argument his nob gobbling base will use too.

    “If I could legally not pay taxes I would too.” Already see if floating around the toilet bowl that is twitter.

    The returns also show that while he was POTUS, 2017 & 2018, Trump continued to received income from foreign sources—-Philippines, India, Turkey, Saudi Arabia.

    I remember having to take security clearances away from people that had large amounts of debt.

    This douche has more debt than most, and runs the security clearance system.

    I wish this would make a difference, but it won’t change much, if anything at all.
