Trump Is broke

Donald Trump is not just financially broke. He is spiritually and physically broke as well.

Hi!

None of this matters to his voter base. A quick check of FiveThirtyEight's combined polls this a.m. showed a one tenth of one percent drop in approval rating from yesterday. His voting base is composed of people who see their culture changing about them and seek a standard bearer to take the United States of America back to the good old days.* That those days hid a lot of cultural problems under the rug is evident. That our {US] culture is changing, along with our demographic make-up, is also all too evident these days. President of the United States of America Donald Trump serves as a symbol, as does 'the wall'. His personal make-up is immaterial for his supporters. Their faith has been rewarded by his Supreme Court choices. He is, essentially, manipulated by the 'conservatives' and, perhaps, by certain strong man national leaders as well.

Regards, stay safe 'n well. Remember the Big 3: masks, hand washing and physical distancing.

* Whether those were really the 'good old days' depends upon one's perspective of them.
 
You don't understand the IRS just as you don't understand any other aspect of US Government. You apparently don't understand the threat to National Security represented by. President carrying the debt burden Trump is carrying. So let me just make it plain as day. Donald Trump could not get a security clearance to sweep the driveway of the WH, let alone have a job in the WH. We foolishly put Donald in the job and have been paying for it every single day since.

That Donald does not know what to do with that money either is par for the course for Donald. That his own campaign has siphoned off so much money that his campaign is now cash strapped, fleecing the Fleecer in Chief is simply what should have been expected.

Do you have a detailed breakdown of Trump's assets and liabilities? It is hard to say otherwise if it is an issue. If he has $5B of debt against $6B of assets, that is a problem. If he has the same debt against $20B of assets it is a joke. All of this is simply speculation based on a partisan reporting, of stolen information, of half truths, out of context.

Your Opinion is duly noted though it has literally NOTHING to do with the post I replied to. You want to doubt the NYT's reporting regarding Donnie's taxes? Knock your mind out.

Denial is the only defense they have at this point.
 
They voted for an broke, ancient con man with a big mouth and bad hair.

That's a B movie.

It's a cult, facts have zero meaning.
and then tonight we will hear the equivalent of school boy insults instead of an exchange of views.

I think Joe is being ridiculous to enter this "debate." It's going to be about peeing in a cup and hand size.
The deplorables will go wild because this is the only kind of language they understand. Trump does not talk over there heads as every other politician at this level does.
 

"One thread has remained constant; in that entire time, not a single one of Mr Trump’s companies has paid a penny in corporation tax to authorities in the UK. The reason? Not a single one has ever turned a profit.
His first venture in his mother’s homeland, Trump International Scotland, has run up cumulative losses of more than £9.4m. Turnberry, the jewel in the Trump Organisation’s crown, and a four-time host of golf’s prestigious Open championship, has fared even worse. Since he acquired the historic venue six years ago, it has lost nearly £43m."

It's like trying to tell a little kid there is no Santa.... they refuse to believe it because it's so much fun to believe.
 
Well this is just the first shoe dropping. This is just money lost by the "brilliant" businessman Donald. Notice the Media is not accusing Donald of Tax Evasion. Tax avoidance is legal use of the tax code to your personal benefit. Anybody that does not think there is a pile of tax evasion that Trump Corp has been conducting all these years, PLEEEEEEASE give me some of what you are smoking.
If you are broke and haven't made any money then there cannot be any tax evasion. Which lie is true.

If being worth over a billion dollars is broke I want to be broke.(y)(y)

Both can be true at the same time. That said Tax Avoidance holds a major threat to Trump because depending on the results of the audit, he will likely end up with back taxes, interest and penalties to pay. You are not relieved of your tax obligation just because you made an "honest mistake". Tax Evasion would throw Donnie into the Courts fighting to stay out of jail as well.

In Trump's the results of an audit decision against him would likely result in millions of $ of back taxes, interest and penalties though the IRS would likely negotiate the amount. Of course none of this happens until the crooks including Mnuchin at Treasury are out of office.

Except it’s not a joke because what matters equally as much is what those assets are. Trump’s assets are mostly or entirely in the form of real estate, i.e. skyscrapers and such. AND Trump used his personally owned, not corporation owned, properties as collateral. So if Trump has $5B of debt then he’s going to be forced into public auction of those properties including but not limited to his own home to pay the debt.

We can ALWAYS doubt the NYT reporting of anything with an R behind it.

No, I do not. The courts have ruled that Trump must turn them over because he has no more reasons to hide them,

Right. The court ruled he had to turn them over to the government. The media is not the government, so the court ruling here is not relevant, is it?
 
Obama sent Iran's cash to Iran. How many times do you people have to have this explained. It was Iran's money from the Reagan years. Stop spreading lies.

For any person with a brain, that wouldn't have mattered.

You don't pay people to commit terrorist acts against yourself even if it is their own money.
 
This is what we all thought would happen if the taxes were released.

People that don't know how to read them jumping up and down and crying about things that aren't true.

Do you not understand that taxes show income and loss for a particular year and not personal net worth?

How does anybody come to the conclusion that Trump is broke from a tax return?

It's called being libtarded.

Anyone with their nose up Trump's butt has no right to accuse anyone else of being "-tarded"

We can ALWAYS doubt so-called conservatives defending anyone whose name has an R behind it.
