True to form, demonize the messenger.
True to form, demonize the messenger.Let's see the Slime's sources, shall we, before we go blaming this on your imaginary enemies, the Republicans.
They have been screaming for 4 years that Trump is hiding his taxes because he is committing tax evasion, now the NYT claims they have the taxes and the big story is Trump writes off business losses.
Again, you are just gushing nonsense from your own private delusions. For one thing, when Russian Oligarchs are looking to hide money they don't do it in the US. They hire the VP's kid to help run interference for them while they stash the money in Cyprus.
ERIC TRUMP: “WE HAVE ALL THE FUNDING WE NEED OUT OF RUSSIA”
According to a Boston radio interview with golf journalist James Dodson, Eric Trump tells Dodson that Trump golf courses heavily relied on funding from Russia. Eric Trump denies this allegation.
Though Trump has never succeeded in developing property in Russia, his company has benefited significantly from Russian money in the form of its clientele. For example, according to a Bloomberg investigation into Trump World Tower, which broke ground in 1998, “a third of units sold on floors 76 through 83 by 2004 involved people or limited liability companies connected to Russia and neighboring states.” Trump World Tower sales agent Debra Stotts told Bloomberg that they had “big buyers from Russia and Ukraine and Kazakhstan.” New York real estate broker Dolly Lenz sold “about 65 units in Trump World Tower […] to Russian buyers looking for real estate.” Lenz is quoted as saying “I had contacts in Moscow looking to invest in the United States […] what do you have to recommend?’ They all wanted to meet Donald. They became very friendly.” In 2002, “the push to sell units in Trump World to Russians expanded,” when Sotheby’s International Realty reportedly teams up with Kirsanova Realty, a Russian company.
The Trump Organization reportedly welcomed the Russian clientele. For example, a 2013 article in The Nation about the influx of Russian money in Miami real estate noted that Elena Baronoff, a Russian-American socialite once described on the cover of a Russian magazine as “The Russian Hand of Donald Trump,” operated a real-estate company catering to Eastern European buyers out of the lobby of the city’s Trump International Beach Resort. The New Republic has also extensively documented how the Trump Organization actively sought Russian buyers, so much so that the area around Trump Sunny Isles in Florida became known as “Little Moscow.”
Nope. The Trumpsters will say it's good business to pay as little as possible. And of course, he has accountants that do his taxes and advise him on what's smart. If anything, Trump will just throw a few of them under the bus.This is good news. He's done!

That's a huge article. I don't have time to read all of it right now, but it appears the image of Trump being a billionaire has been nothing but a marketing in scam in order to promote his own image. He is loaded with debt, and it sounds like he is on the verge of bankruptcy.LONG-CONCEALED RECORDS SHOW TRUMP’S CHRONIC LOSSES AND YEARS OF TAX AVOIDANCE
The Times obtained Donald Trump’s tax information extending over more than two decades, revealing struggling properties, vast write-offs, an audit battle and hundreds of millions in debt coming due.
Donald J. Trump paid $750 in federal income taxes the year he won the presidency. In his first year in the White House, he paid another $750.
He had paid no income taxes at all in 10 of the previous 15 years — largely because he reported losing much more money than he made.
===============
Well, well. Either he's not the successful businessman that he claims to be and losses more money than he earns or he's a cheat that pays less money in taxes than the working poor.
Romney was attacked during the 2012 election because he only paid 12% in federal tax. How will paying only $750, the highest in decades is going to fly?
It's different when Trump haters do it?
Damn right, I will demonize the Slimes. They've been caught telling lies, printing exaggerations, purveyors of fake news, before about this president.
If this is real, then it's the NY Slimes that broke the law by illegally obtaining and revealing a person's tax info.So did he break the law?
Why do you think this will be the death nail? He is not doing well already and is unpopular, but I am not sure this will be a storm shed moment. I could be wrong. I hope I am wrong... lolThis is good news. He's done!

Damn right, I will demonize the Slimes. They've been caught telling lies, printing exaggerations, and are purveyors of fake news, especially against this president.
Maybe if he claimed phony deductions.I'm not a tax expert. Can someone smarter than me tell me if there's a crime here?
I like your signatureInnocent people don't hide their tax ingo.
You can read Trump's tax returns two ways: either Donald Trump is the greatest tax cheat in US history - or he is a financial desperado hopelessly in debt to God knows who & needs every dollar he scams from Secret Service golf car rentals just to pay the electricity bill. — David FrumNote how the Slimes released this "bombshell" two days before the debates? One thing I remember Trump saying about tax law... He is using the very tax breaks congress passed into law. Oh the horrors! He's such a dummy to use tax law to his advantage.
An emergency press conference. He must be worried.The "Oh Fake Pumpkin" is having a press conference now lying his ass off. He's claiming "fake news". Such a liar, uuhm uhhmm homina homina homina. They have the proof!
His supporters have no idea how much he is exploiting their stupidity.Trump paying less personal income taxes than the rubes that vote for him.

I know. Keep dreaming. You have been falling for this crap for 4 years now. There is no chance you will ever wake up.Once the details come out, we will see that he’s a common crook, who overestimates is loses and underestimated his gains, in order to evade taxes.
According to the article, he spent $70,000 on his hair. Sure he did. We’ve seen his hair.
Surely, he isn’t going to gain support from this. Even if he only gets 1/2 pt lose in some states, that’s enough to turn Ohio and Georgia blue.Why do you think this will be the death nail? He is not doing well already and is unpopular, but I am not sure this will be a storm shed moment. I could be wrong. I hope I am wrong... lol
