Calling your corporate officer/employee a “consultant“ and deducting the expenses of paying her is fraud

Calling your personal residence an “investment property“ and deducting property taxes and other expenses is fraud

Calling personal expenses like hair care and clothing “business expenses” and deducting them is fraud

I can sort of explain this: lots of us thought that anyone who was willing to go to the Supreme Court to avoid sharing his tax returns must have something truly horrifying in there that he was desperate to keep secret. Many of us suspected outright tax fraud and/or big debts to Russia. We also suspected that "being under audit" was just a lame excuse, and that he wasn't actually being audited.

Assuming that the NYT report is based upon real information, it raised some questions, but revealed no massive tax fraud or debts to Russia. (There are some expenses that might turn out to be fraudulent, but determining that requires more information than what was provided in the NYT article, per various tax experts.) It also revealed that he is actually under audit (not that this would prevent him from releasing his tax returns, but at least it validates one of his points). If anything, he came off looking better than before to those of us who expected the worst. The $750 thing isn't a big deal, really. It's not as if most of us would voluntarily pay more tax than we are absolutely required to pay.

That said, I'm not in the 16%. Trump disqualified himself years ago from getting my vote. But I can see where those who feared the worst might be slightly less fearful now.

A majority of voters say the New York Times report on President Trump's taxes makes no difference in whether or not they will vote for him, a new Hill-HarrisX poll finds.

A report of the Times' analysis of Trump's tax documents released late last month revealed that the president had paid $750 in federal income taxes in 2016 and 2017. Furthermore, the report said that Trump did not pay income tax for 10 of 15 years leading up to the 2016 election.

A second report released by the Times on Oct. 10 said that Trump's tax records showed that nearly 200 entities funneled millions of dollars into the president's properties while reaping benefits from the administration.

The Hill-HarrisX poll was conducted before the second analysis by the Times was released from Oct. 3-6.

Fifty-one percent of registered voters in the survey said the Times report makes no difference in their voter preference.

Thirty-three percent said it makes them less likely to vote for Trump while 16 percent said it makes them more likely to vote for him.

People who also grift?

Shockingly it’s five years for most federal crimes.

If HRC committed crimes with her email the statute of limitations has probably run out.

Butter emails? Are you trolling or that stupid?

I read PP as noting that the POTUS' obsession with HRC is literally irrelevant and just a distraction at this point.
