Did Hillary supporters ever start and run a business? Government knows most people don't know how to run businesses so they encourage smart people to risk and invest which results in creating jobs, they know that businesses have bad years so they include the carry over loss to encourage investment.

Businesses fail all the time, at least Trump KNOWS HOW to rebuild.

Geez, Hillary supporters don't know the first thing about taxes and running a business so they need jobs yet there they are like a bunch of clucking chickens p*ssing on a man who creates jobs.

Since I wasn't voting for Trump, his tax situation won't affect my vote.

But I do note the alt-right cognitive dissonance, which sees Donald Trump as smart for not paying income taxes, but sees poor people as good-for-nothings for not paying income taxes.

What's up with that?

But he's such a good business man. I think it's funny how seniors tend to be Republican but if everyone paid taxes like Trump they would have no Medicare, Social Security or Medicaid for senior car. The military wouldn't exist. Rural areas would have no roads or infrastructure. Defend Trump all day long if you like but remember that seniors, military and rural areas depend on those federal income taxes more than anyone else in the country.

At the beginning I was more on the line, as I listened to each candidate and listened to the rhetoric put out there by the media, with my own experience and knowledge I saw who was lying and misleading and that pushed me to be a Trump supporter. Hillary and the liberal media actually pushed me away from Hillary.

I remember that too. He made a comeback that's for sure. Most people couldn't get out the gate the first time yet they think they know it all.

Please. You've been anti-Obama for as long as I've seen your posts and there are several women hating women on this board so it's not really surprising at all. Trump appeals to a certain demographic that worships gold plated toilets and self-aggrandizement.

Daddy's money helps. He would have made more money if he had put it into an index fund.

When exactly was it that you fell off the fence and went for Trump over Clinton? 1992 or 1993?

I don't like Obama, and the way this economy is and with failing Obamacare I was right.

So if you're accusing me of not being able to vote Democrat or Republican you should take a look in the mirror.

I was in the similar position as you. I actually don't care for either candidate. I do know that Hillary will lie and be corrupt in office 100%. With Trump, its 50/50....I rather take my chances with Trump as long as he is sane enough not to push the nuclear button.
