No matter how complicated the tax laws are, this one seems pretty tough to finesse:
18 days before Fred Trump Jr.’s death, the Trump siblings had submitted Park Briar’s co-op conversion plan, stating under oath that the building was worth $17.1 million. As executors, they gave it a date of death valuation of $2.9 million. So, the same people claimed in separate legal documents that, on September 26, 1981, the real estate was worth $14.2 million less than it was worth on September 8, 1981. That's a helluva roller coaster. |
Wow. And this was never discovered in any previous audits? |
Pure sleaze. We have a sleazy, corrupt, failed businessman installed as president. His horribleness and lack of ethics are corroding American democracy as his supporters cheer him on and goad him to mock and taunt and bully individual citizens including a sexual assault survivor, a disabled reporter, and the parents of a fallen soldier. Republicans' complete lack of shame is appalling and disheartening to those of us who truly love this country and its ideals. They have not an iota of moral decency left in them, and can never play the family values/morality card again. |
And they pretend that the free market determines who gets rich and who stays poor -- that being rich is evidence of being morally sound and being poor is evidence of poor character. They conflate money acquired with money earned and, having done so, scream about how taxation is theft. |
It is telling that so few Trumpsters have clicked on this thread. |
You can prove tax fraud. Think Jimmy Hoffa. |
Entombed in cement somewhere? |
If he sues the NYT for defamation, he will need to release his tax records. Which will incriminate him. Let's see if he sues. I bet not. |
They can't come screaming about NO CORROBORATING EVIDENCE. They still don't care, of course. Owning the libs is the alpha and the omega of the modern conservative. |
It really doesn't matter if they care or not. Tax fraud is tax fraud. Trump is certainly going to regret winning the Presidency if it means he and his family has to pay $$$. |
Lots of people care. Lots of people didn't vote for him. And I have family members, who voted for Trump, who believed every word he said, bless their hearts. |
+1 They DGAF if he heads over and robs the Treasury building. |
+1000 They don’t believe white collar crime is a real crime especially when white guys commit it. |
Orrin Hatch: Trump might have to give up his tax returns

Key word: "might". Nothing will come of it. Rs don't want to rock the boat. They are just full of hot air, but it's just all talk and no action. |
