Long ago I had a friend who was a Catholic priest and whose order did not take the vow of poverty. Because of a friend’s largesse, he ended up very well off. He was audited each and every year,
*This* IRS, run as it’s been by left wing bullies, has been purely political and is damned dangerous.
Sigh, I never suggested the IRS has not been politicized, what I am saying is that complex tax returns, especially those involving large dollar amounts, and lower than statistical average payments to incomes are going to almost certainly trigger an audit more often than other tax returns.
Given Trump probably has scores if not hundreds of income sources, his returns are probably innately complex. Add to that, the fact he probably has some very well paid people who’s entire job it is is to minimize what he pays in taxes, I have little doubt that he or folks like him have a much higher likelihood of being audited.
