I thought the same thing as the PP who said that this is why Trump made those outrageous statements against Dr. Ford at his redneck rally today. Attempting to divert from this breaking NYT story... |
The White House pushed back against an exhaustive investigation published by The New York Times on Tuesday that alleged Donald Trump perpetrated various tax schemes and fraud during the 1990s to bolster the inheritance he received from his parents, calling the report a “misleading attack” on the president’s family.
“Fred Trump has been gone for nearly twenty years and it’s sad to witness this misleading attack against the Trump family by the failing New York Times,” White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said in a statement, referring to Trump’s late father — a powerful New York real estate developer and housing magnate. |
Interesting. “Misleading”. Awfully tame language from POTUS, who osn’t Saying they are lying liars who lie, or WRONG! |
How is this an attack? The Times isn't accusing the Trunp family of anything, it's just a factual report. |
A lot of posters here claim to be attorneys. Can he be charged? Could this be made in to a RICO case? A continuing criminal enterprise? The millions of dollars the family must owe in taxes might help reduce the national deficit. |
Digging in to it is one thing, but I am guessing the nephew's passing opened the door given the trove of documents that led to this article. |
Sarah Sanders is the spokesperson for the Trump Organization now? |
Trump Org/POTUS, same/same. That's a big part of the problem. |
*100,000 documents |
So Trump accepted over $400m from his father, numerous properties and still ended up with 6 bankruptcies and far less than if he had just invested in the S&P at the time. And still he had to launder Russian money to stay afloat.
This is NOT a good businessman. |
Didn't read the article so I don't have all the facts. While I don't doubt that Trump is implicated in any tax fraud scheme with respect to his family money, another part of me asks, "is this guy really that intelligent and sophisticated enough to orchestrate it?" This is the guy who thinks because we're importing more than we're exporting, hence we are "losing on trade". |
Womp womp. |

He used to be smarter, before the dementia started. |
And Fred’s experts set these systems up before Donald was involved. |
