He was a tax attorney as well as an accountant.....zackly
There’s a difference.
You want to tell me the difference between someone going into an HRBlock or Donald Trump getting thier taxes done? Other than the numbers and deductions he and his business can take advantage of, that the regular guy can’t, NOTHING. There is no difference in the base process. For the regular guy it’s a 1040EZ. For Donald Trump it’s a 1040 and a mountain of other forms for deductions, depreciations, write-offs or whatever else is in that 70,000 page disaster that he and his business can take advantage of.
The same way that Tesla, GM, GE, Amazon, Warren Buffett and the rest do every year to avoid paying taxes.
Want to know the difference in procedures between an entry level narcotics detective finding an ounce of crack and a DEA Agent finding a tractor trailer load of meth? Nothing. It’s the same criminal procedure rules.
Donald Trump, again, provided the accounting firm, information. They did the taxes based on that information. What the NYAG is saying is that he defrauded the state and federal government by saying his, ie...penthouse was this big, instead of that big...this asset was worth this, not that...they asset had this much depreciation, instead of that much depreciation...so an and so forth....information he provided.
I’ve done itemized taxes, too. Provided receipts and bank statements, my mortgage taxes and insurance form from my bank, etc. Had to keep all of it for 7 years. I get it. But at the end of the day, the accountant does the math.
If the IRS wants to audit you, they come to YOU and your tax attorney, if you’re smart enough to get one.
In this case, James has apparently provided the accounting firm with information that contradicts what it was given by Donald Trump and the Trump organization. Hence, they sent out a letter saying that the returns may not be accurate. There is no mention of an audit. NONE. This is James, trying to find a crime. That is it.
And, based on what we’re learning now, with the Dem spies in his administration, is it a stretch to believe that this “new information” may not be on the up and up?
The man has been audited how many times? The Treasury Dept and IRS have unlimited resources. Look at how long they went after Warren Buffett.
And now, just now, when more and more information about the elections is coming out, Jan6th is slowly starting to unravel, support for the man continues to grow, he leads CornPop in every poll, gas is going through the roof, the country could potentially be in another war for no reason, covid and everything about it is being upended, and....
NOW, just this past week, the Soros legal genius and her crew found something. When the ONLY other thing they had, previously, was one of his employees not counting a “fringe” on his taxes for when Donald Trump helped him with his sons tuition or something like that. THAT IS IT. And all of a sudden, this.
So, for 10 years they didn't say a word, now all of a sudden they have a problem with his financial statements? Who's paying them to say this?
That was a very carefully worded statement that means little.
I agree, but the Left will see it as Trump on the ropes,
finally being brought to “just us”.
Good thing they don’t still enact crucifixions.
