Creative? Hell, I’m an engineer and I can fugure the depreciation expense

President Trump is way too smart to do anything tax-wise that might get his tit caught in the IRS wringer. The NYSlimes is a wishin’ and a hopin’. Not gonna happen.
I’m sure the high power dem players do the same thing.
Let’s see the CLINTON’S tax returns, for example.

Everyone knows you don't pay tax on debt service and the fact that the markets keep rising guarantee that when Kushner does finally sell the properties in the future he will much more tax on the higher valuations
What idiot would pay a penny to the IRS if they could avoid it legally? The government would make more money by going to a flat tax. If you run a business there are untold ways to avoid taxes especially if you know a local business to buy stuff from that will work with you. Ringing up personal things you might buy under a generic code that would indicate it as plumbing supplies if you have a plumbing business, as one example. This is dodgy but it happens all the time.
Wonder who was the President during all that time.
How come there is no mention of GE not paying income taxes during that same period?

Paying more than you owe in taxes is for chumps.
