Clinton obviously had access to the returns before the NYT released them. The smug look on her face at the debate as she “wondered” if Trump paid no taxes gives that fact away.
Just another example of government CORRUPTION. We saw the IRS target ordinary citizens who were Tea Party members. No one punished. Just more bad behavior by the IRS and Clinton.
Another day, another case of Clinton/Fed corruption.
I don’t get this. A business man loses one billion dollars of his own money twenty one years ago and to the Clintoon’s low information, freeloading supporters, that’s a big deal. Clintoon lose TWO BILLION of taxpayers dollars and everybody just shrugs.
Thank you for the refresher! It’s been ages and I was trying to put it all together in my mind how this worked.
That is absolutely NOT TRUE.
It was SIX BILLION.
Thank you for the correction, FRiend. And I’m NOT being sarcastic.
You’re quite welcome.
The point being...those who claim “Trump [as a result of that big loss] paid no taxes for 18 years...are talking out their a**es. And you KNOW they are talking out their a**ses because this is something none of them could know and thus them saying so indicates with precision that they are goofballs. I mean, he either did or he didn’t, we don’t know, some us don’t care. I am sure he utilized that loss to offset gains elsewhere, you would, I would. It would be financially irresponsible not to!
Do these same folks willingly give up their home mort deduction (probably the biggest tax DODGE or LOOPHOLE available to the ordinary man/woman/LGBTQWTF) so that starving children can be fed?
Uhhh, no.
But to say that loss means Trump paid “no taxes” for 18 years means that they are thus claiming Trump made no more then $916MM/18 = ~~$51 MM/year for 18 consecutive years which is certainly doubtful, hardly plausible. I don’t know. (we’re talking biz profits) But it’s a goofy assertion or speculation, what I call a 3rd grade playground dirtbomb toss made for no other reason than to smear Trump. Tell me that Nancy Pelosi doesn’t deduct the wages of the guys/gals who work her resort/winery. Tell me that Nancy Pelosi doesn’t take the VERY JUICY depreciation on her vineyard vines (something I know about) and tractors and other machinery she’s got running up there in Napa. The very assertion is entirely stupid.
