You might think that—given the chance to chide the star of a competing network—CNN would have called out MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow over her failed, overhyped “scoop” on Donald Trump’s taxes. But nary a discouraging word about Maddow could be heard on CNN this morning. Liberal media solidarity more important than beating the competition?
Instead, commenting this morning on the release of Donald Trump’s 2005 tax return, CNN’s Chris Cuomo described the Alternative Minimum Tax [AMT] he paid as a “benefit” to Trump. It was just the opposite. The AMT Alternative Minimum Tax is designed to prevent people with large incomes from using deductions to reduce their tax liability beyond a certain amount. No matter how little a taxpayer would normally pay, the AMT imposes a higher minimum.

Chris Cuomo spins Trump’s $33 million alternative minimum tax hit as a “benefit.” CNN spares Maddow any criticism for her huge flop “scoop.”
Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.
Cuomo. What a dildo looks like.
ROFL...You JUST can’t fix STUPID...
He’s using the ignorance of his LIV viewers, and the fact that the phrase “Alternative Minimum Tax” sounds like it’s some kind of IRS loophole for minimizing your taxes.
The Fredo of the Cumstain family speaks.
He’s the guy who wants men in the girls locker room, and says females need to be tolerant of men who think they are women and all that transsexual enabling stuff......we are supposed to believe him that the AMT tax hit is actually a tax loophole for Trump???
He’s a committed Democrat.
So MSNBC is skipping merrily past slanting the news and is reaching full-on false propaganda status.
Cool.
Is this the guy who wants 12yr old girls to look at his penis?
Isn’t he the one who said that 12 year old girls who don’t want to share a shower with a man are the ones with the problem?
President Cuomo of Fake News Central...
When a leftist doesn’t like reality, he redefines it.
ITS ALL PART OF THE LIBTARD GLOBALIST COMMIE DEEP STATE
Let them rot in hell
Chris was never the sharpest pencil in the Cuomo box.
From now on, every answer to these weirdos must be, “How bizarre!”
He obviously never had to pay the AMT, nor any of his viewwers. Ouch was my response to it back in the day. The word Minimum is misleading, makes it sound small.
No mention of the fact some 40% of income earners pay NO taxes at all??
What? Oh, never mind....
Well, they didn’t take all his money.
Another bag of sh*t blows up in medias face they must like it they keep doing it.
