I am not making excuses what Avenatti conduct, merely pointing to the hypocrisy of the Trump supporter.
if you have some evidence Trump owes millions in back taxes, post it for us. We know the sleazy attorney does.

According to the IRS, the REALITY is quite different:

Look at the name of the responsible party. Then look at the left-most column. 941s.

You are making an apples to oranges comparison. In the case of this lawyer he owes taxes that he never paid.


Trump didn't pay taxes because he didn't owe any, only a moron would pay taxes they didn't owe. Trump had losses which took him many years to recover from. If you lose 1 million the first year and profit $100K each of the next ten years your net gain is $0. If you were taxed 30% each of the ten years you profited you'd be $300K in the hole.



This would not be fairto the business because you would be effectively taxing a loss. If the current tax law were removed investment by business would stagnate and there would be whole bunch of them folding up shop because recovery from years with losses would be all that much more difficult.

He owed the IRS $2.4 million but already paid back $1.5 million to the IRS. Of the ~900k remainder due to the IRS, he missed a $440k installment last week. So at this point he immediately owes the IRS $440k per the past due installment, plus the remainder of the future installments when those are due.

Law firm of Stormy Daniels' attorney hit with $10-million judgment

...Eagan Avenatti to pay the IRS a total of $2.4 million.

More than half of that was for payroll taxes that the law firm withheld from employees but did not turn over to the government. ...

Avenatti paid an initial installment of $1.5 million. Shariff told the judge that the government would soon file a motion demanding payment of the additional money that was due last week ($440k)

Trump properties have had many liens placed on him. Often because he wants his properties valued well below what his own marketing prospectus claims they are worth. Technically that is failing to pay a tax.

Back taxes may be just a small number compared to the $10 million $$ judgement he's now been nailed by the judge.

Wonder how much the soon to be Ex wife wants in the divorce? That could be a sizable amount of available assets not available that would be used to pay debts.
