Trump Engaged in Suspect Tax Schemes as He Reaped Riches From His Father

Looks like the Kavanaugh story is not panning out the way dems had hoped for, Mueller and his leaking bunch are quite, NK story is developing nicely, unemployment is at a record low, economy is booming, trade/tariff deals have become fair, DOW is looking good, GDP is humming nicely upwards, dems just screwed themselves with the Kavanaugh BS and so on and so forth.

Dang! There must be something negative about Trump that we have to print, even if it's only a speculation ... something that warrants another "investigation" ... or just plain defamation is nowadays sufficient. :lamo

I wouldn't do that without a skirt and pom poms.

Its obvious from this report that trump is a tax cheat, and although the returns in question are from the 90's, no one cheats on their taxes just a few times. Once you know you can getaway with it, it becomes habitual.

That financial CFO at Trump World was granted immunity by Mueller. By now he should be singing like a canary because he executed all those tax forms.

And, another person who won't read the article. 40,000 words, it can be tough, some of them have lots of syllables.

Just like how smart he was to cheat in his election by getting Putin's help. Yes the bad guys often win in real life. That does not make it right....or legal. His time in the barrel is near,

Nothing that us tri-staters of a particular age are not well aware of already. The Trump empire is and was Fred, not Donald neither Sr of Jr both of whom are card carrying ignoramuses! Donald is ignorant. But he is not stupid and he has used his limited talents to become the world's greatest carpetbagger.

Fred while being ruthless and corrupt knew what he was doing. Fred was the business genius of the family without question. None of his offspring in any Trump generation are anywhere near to him.

Yep. And Trump has completely failed at Fred Trump's business. Trump is no longer a developer. He's a brander and self-promoter. All his other business ventures have failed.

Trump has succeeded in conning Americans into believing he has a "very very big brain" for business. At least he conned those who didn't have a college degree. Educated people saw through him.

The same NYT that dropped the bombshell about Clinton's use of a personal server? Noted.

Big long report at the NY Times. Lots of interesting things in this article. Could this be what Trump is hiding in his tax returns? One of the authors is on MSNBC now.

I had read the article earlier and monies were funneled to the Family, that would include his sister who is a Federal Judge, 3rd Circuit.

Next question- can civil -criminal penalties be imposed if the IRS investigates?
If the claims are proven, then she and he should resign and or be impeached

Uh-huh. I don't think Trump was the POTUS who ordered our intel to STAND DOWN , and not interfere with the Russian meddling, after getting caught promising Putin "more flexibility", was it?


I also don't think it was the Trump Campaign who LIED FOR OVER A YEAR about spending $millions to hire a firm (FusionGPS), to hire a FOREIGN AGENT (Steele), to buy "dirt" form his Kremlin-linked buddies, to influence the election, was it?

Or who set up the Trump Tower meeting (FusionGPS, again, w/help from Loretta Lynch) to try to SET UP the opposing campaign, was it?

Has nothing to do with the completely UNSUBSTANIATED BULL**** in the OP article.



Is this much confusion about the ACTUAL FACTS typical for you?

Only if it's illegal. Is it?

Well of course it would need to meet that standard. Why would you think otherwise?
You are the legal guy, if it was illegal, can criminal charges be laid, or is it past the SoL?
Next would be the same question on civil penalties?

Not anymore. In LEFTWORLD an "allegation"= guilt...unless it's against a DEMOCRAT, of course.

I see trump has trained you so well. Just because you don’t like a particular news source doesn’t mean it’s automatically false. Sad that I even have to say this. So what, anything negative that comes out about trump you’re just going to claim fake news? Are you really that dense?
