Commercial depreciation is only 1/40th of the value of the *building*. That really doesn't explain why he was able to claim losses for 18 years.

And he’s not just investing in real estate. He’s operating actual businesses - hotels, golf courses and clubs - that are supposed to make money. They’re not.

After reading these 22 pages of comments, I'm convinced of two things;

1. The idiocy on displayed here by those who hate Trump is real
2. Trump will win in 5 weeks despite attempts by many.

This was the first in a series of articles. We will have to see what else is reported.

Given Junior and Eric said they had disporportionate investments from Russia, and given what we have seen from the Saudi's and Israeli's, I am pretty sure we can connect the dots on Trump's foreign policy decisions and his income.


BS. If they found deep ties to Russia they'd lead with it because the debate is Tuesday. The "$750" is their lead, that's THE story.


There’s three more debates after this one as the election gets closer and closer. Always save the best for last!

Doing so for 20 years moves people from the category of tax avoidance to tax cheat


Then how come no charges? I think this is a nothing burger. Nobody cares. Hot air bs. Another rich scam artist, tell us something we don't already know.


He's been in trouble with the IRS for a decade...

Right - so it's "no big deal" but Trump has been paying millions in attorneys' fees to keep his tax returns hidden. Hmmmmm.

At least he could come up with 750 bucks. Not in Rubles. There's that.

Don’t worry the NYT has weeks of reveals left. I, for one, want to know who owns the $421 million in debt.

It ain't the taxes (gross as it is), it's the net worth. He's broke.

Exactly. It amazes me how low the NYT has fallen.


Then demand the "real" taxes from the president to demonstrate that this is fake news. Otherwise, there is no way the NY Times would open itself up to the liability for such an article if it weren't true.
