It makes sense to me. I said that when he first took office. You do not pay taxes if you do not make money. It does not matter if you are a billionaire. With the crash of 2009 anyone with any sense should have known that anyone with vast amounts of real estate would be in trouble. He most likely acquired the real-estate when it was over valued and since then the properties has most likely not returned to its prior value even now. The only thing he can do is hold on to it until the value increases again. But with the democrats shutting down and destroying our economy he may not live long enough.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?
He betrayed our allies, the Kurds. If it involves loans to Turkey and he allowed Erdogan to exploit that, it’s serious. I still want to know why he left our allies after a phone call with Erdogan
The diff is while both are unprincipled Putin is smart.Oh shit. I remember his former lawyer, the one in prison said Trump admires Putin because of his power, Trump believed Putin was the richest man in the world. If Putin held the keys, then that could explain a lot about Trump’s ambitions in politics and using the office to enrich himself. He was modeling himself on Putin
prove it is illegal or a sham.Perhaps you weren't paying attention. His daughter set up a consulting firm and her father "paid" that firm over $750,000, which he then deducted on his taxes. That's called a sham transaction and it's illegal tax evasion and easy to prove in court.
"What did you consult on, Mrs. Kushner, to earn three quarters of a million dollars?" "How many hours did you bill?"
Don't forget that Putin told trump to get our forces out of a strategically located American air base.
Trump had them out in 24 hrs and it is still occupied by Russian troops, and using our air strips...
we will see i doubt any of this is real. this reeks of another nyt fake news article.It’s far worse than that. Trump has 14 known loans. Only six of those total $479 million and are coming due in the next three years and he used his personal property assets as collateral. He’s going to be living out of a cardboard box in the next 3-5 years if he can’t somehow use the Presidency as a conduit to refinance or wipe out the debt.
It isn't "fact" unless it can be substantiated. It's opinion and nothing more without proof.Did you actually read the Times piece? It lists fact after fact after fact. If any fact is not correct it would be easy for the Trump team to show that.
Do you think the Times should have withheld these facts until after the election? Does the press not have an obligation to inform the public?
no i think the times is a pos shit hole that has lost all credibility.Did you actually read the Times piece? It lists fact after fact after fact. If any fact is not correct it would be easy for the Trump team to show that.

yep i figured these leftists would pull something this disgusting.It isn't "fact" unless it can be substantiated. It's opinion and nothing more without proof.
you don't know what tax returns show do you?This is the most important bit and my hope is the NYT shows this soon. If he is beholden to a foreign government, he should lose his security clearance, even if it means he cannot do his job.
I think you've confused Trump for Joe Biden. And how exactly do they get blackmailed over loans?Trump can be easily blackmailed and exploited by foreign governments holding his loans. When you think back to the Ukraine scandal, that’s exactly how Trump was playing politics with Ukraine. He engage the country in a quid pro quo but he did it with the American taxpayers money.
This not how honest and principled people negotiate. It’s corruption, blackmail, and extortion
i wonder how Rush and Sean will spin it.
no i think the times is a pos shit hole that has lost all credibility.
it will simply be a matter of time before this story is debunked like the rest of their garabage stories have been.
not to mention very very much hot water legal issue they opened themselves up to by publishing private tax returns without permission.
not that you care about that.
so far no one who hadn't taken the tds pill has any reason to believe anything that shit hole paper publishes.
you don't know what tax returns show do you?
I think the nyt just committed a felony.LONG-CONCEALED RECORDS SHOW TRUMP’S CHRONIC LOSSES AND YEARS OF TAX AVOIDANCE
