Trump made his money in the private sector. That’s none of my business. Trump took huge tax deductions. Who cares? They were legal. If they weren’t legal, how come the IRS never had him prosecuted?
But if politicians get rich while in office, that’s something we all should investigate. How did Harry Reid retire as one of the richest senators on a salary of $175,000 - or less - per year? Can anyone explain how anyone gets rich on $175,000 per year, after taxes, after kids in college, after keeping homes in both Nevada and D.C.? I can’t make that math work.
I think I know the answer. I believe members of Congress trade on insider knowledge and steer government contracts, lobbying jobs and other leveraged perks to their spouses, children, parents and siblings. That’s the scam.
I don’t care about a billionaire president’s tax return. I want to see all the tax returns of Harry Reid and his entire family, from the year he was elected to Congress to the day he retired.

I'm still wondering how Chelsea got into Stanford.
I’m pretty sure Harry got it by buying land at what was to become Interstate Exits that only he knew about.
Every one of them seem to be millionaires after a few terms.
AND she graduated in 4 years - after taking 2 full semesters (1 year) off...
Doesn’t add up.
Maybe they paid somebody off. 😁
There are also the Bidens, who have been making a fortune off of shady deals with China and the Ukraine...enforced by Joe Biden’s position as VP.
Don’t forget about Bernie. He has never had a private sector job in his whole miserable life. Lived in moms basement until he was mid thirties.
Reid was and is a byproduct of the Las Vegas Mafia.
Well it sure wasn’t as a result of her looks.
One very ugly byproduct of Hillary Clinton and Webb Hubbel.
“...lived in his mothers basement into his mid 30’s”
...truly?
They pay there relatives to work on there campaigns...like Hillary...
they keep the money that is left in the campaign fund when they retire
Watching his character in “Casino”, I got some idea.
Pelosi...Maxie???
Just check out all the Harry Reid’s land deals, he even sold land that he no longer owned for $1.1 mil. There is a long list of shady deals, he was listed as the most corrupt politician. Just type in Harry Reid land deals for a search
No one is DIRTIER than the Hairy Reed! Or more disgusting.
How did she get anywhere ?
CONgress passed laws allowing inside trading to transfer, launder, billions of dollars to CONgressmen.
And they arrested James Traficant.
That might be one way. The other was that he got BLM land turned over for development and then his Mormon buddy who developed that land kicked back a per cent of each lot sold-to Harry Reed.
Las Vegas is about to become a city without water. Way over populated.
