Sad you can't come up with your own ideas, shows you lack critical thinking skills.

Trump used the system as it was written and he was lawful. The thing is, he's also very business smart. He wrote in his own book about the losses he took and how he recovered from them. He's in the Guiness Book or Records for biggest finnancial turnaround:

More to point, he's better for us and the economy than Clinton. Clinton is beholden to large roch Wall Street donors. She's supported big banks and hedge funds, supports TPP (she said she doesn't because its unpopular but she will), and has a horrible record as a government official. Her accomplishments as a civil secant include a failed Russian diplomatic effort, chaos in the ME by supporting radical Islamists overthrowing in some instances regimes that were friendly to our interests and of course getting diplomats killed. The extent of her forgiven policy adventures are her lying about taking sniper fire.

Trump wants the economy to work and it's been the forefront of his campaign with immigration reform. I don't agree with everything he says or every stupid tweet. I know he's miles above HRC on economic issues and he'll actually tackle immigration

What a good little lapdog!

And more ad hominems.

Ivanka, is that you?

You are completely delusional if you think this exemplifies good business and sound practices for middle America. Worse, Trump has demonstrated he has literally no skin in the game - for our roads and bridges, for our military, for our public schools - you name it, he is a freeloader.

He is playing the American public for chumps and you have bought it hook, line and sinker.


I see you can't counter those pints so you result to ad hominem. Well done.

What do you base the suggestion that he paid taxes subsequently on? He can legally take that offset for 15 years after the fact, which would be to 2010. Given the additional bankruptcies and the fact that he has been funneling money through his foundation would suggest he is continuing to be a genius and limit his liability to the rest of the Americans who do pay taxes.

You are an idiot for given this liar the benefit of any doubt. He has earned nothing in the way of trust or goodwill.

Well, the NYT pulled up some 1995 return - illegally the campaign reckons - but we have nothing after that. So the fact you are assuming he's freeloading is baseless conjecture. You and the NYT assume he didn't lay anything after the fact, and you have no evidence to say he didn't pay. Second, he took those massive loses and wrote them off as the law allowed, anyone would do it. Finally, he wrote about this in his book and he holds the record for biggest financial turnaround. Chances are he paid after that. You should really try thinking intelligently before rambling off st the mouth, it makes you look pretty dumb.

Yeah I don't understand how people are still supporting him when the reforms he wants to make to the tax code INCREASE taxes on the middle class and give MORE tax loopholes to the rich to decrease their taxes. I just don't understand the logic of people who see his tax nonpayment, know about his tax plan, and think he will make a positive change for them in the middle class.

Well, I guess I do understand it. He tells you in his speeches that he is going to make everything great again and cut your taxes, so you believe him. There's a disconnect between what he's telling you and the tax plan he has actually laid out. I still blame you for believing his empty promises over his published plan.

Anyone who thinks that this is a sign Trump will be able to fix the tax code because he knows it so well is a fool. His tax plan in no way contemplates eliminating the kinds of deductions he uses, it's targeted at hedge fund managers and other sectors that have comparable breaks to his, but leaves his own untouched. There is no way Trump is going to pursue a change to the tax code that would cause him to start paying millions a year in taxes, to him not paying taxes is smart, and he's certainly not going to do anything "not smart" to hurt himself.

OP, the joke is on all of us. Trump is genius personified for figuring out a way to beat the tax code. We would all do well to learn from him. Let's go get a billion dollars!

..."Chumps"?

I mean, it has a lovely poetic ring to it. And you know, it definitely aligns with a group that's been conned into voting for a draft-dodging, tax-evading billionaire who's painted himself as a friend of the little guy.

The only downside is that it is not kind to the genuinely mentally ill that I fear make up many of his supporters (like the woman interviewed in WaPo: https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/finally-someone-who-thinks-like-me/2016/10/01/c9b6f334-7f68-11e6-9070-5c4905bf40dc_story.html )

But anyone who is sane that is still supporting him at this point might want to have themselves evaluated...
