This is the new way, makeup 30 year old allegations and now even on dead people[/quote]
Donald Trump is still very much alive and appears to have been very much a part and a beneficiary of tax fraud. You might wish it weren’t a big deal, but it most certainly is.[/quote]

Yeah, agreed. White collar criminal defense attorney here. I'm working on a case with some strong parallels to this one. The no-show jobs from a young age, submission of low appraisals to tax authorities, and the sham business that was marking up legitimate expenses and skimming would all give me a lot of heartburn. None of these things are legal, and they are absolutely things the IRS prosecutes criminally. The statute of limitations will limit what they can bring criminal charges on (and practically, so will the fact that Trump has authority over the IRS). They may be able to back into some of it if there's continuing conduct (NOLs carrying over from year to year; questionable basis calculations; etc.), but I'm not sure that's likely with the scheme laid out in the NYTimes reporting.

I have long thought that Fred and Mary Trump were responsible for Trump's narcissistic personality disorder and the fact that Trump was able to "stay afloat" in spite of it.  Now we know it is true.  They were con artists and frauds as is the whole family.  His sister is a Federal Judge.  She's drawing a Federal salary after she and and her family ripped the tax payers off.  It's all tainted and I hope that the Trump name is now associated w/fraud and grift.  His siblings and immediate family all know who he is and they unleashed him on America.  The only ones that are clean are the minor children (and maybe Tiffany).[/quote]
