Who cares about his taxes?


What I want to know is how do politicians get rich while in office? Let's start investigating them.

Most people don't recall Amazon was an on line book store in the beginning. It took years for them to even get established and if you could get Bezo tax returns from that time you's describe him as a complete failure / loser.

Even today Liberal Hero Bezo pays no Income tax. He has write offs like the income Losing Washington Post that is an expense and write off.

Like Trump, it would take an Army of CPA's and Attorneys to understand Bezo's Tax filings and understand why he takes advantage of all his writeoffs and tax advantages.

It's why Tax returns should be private and stay in the hands of the IRS only.

Tears are flowing early today. They always need good caddies at one of Trump's resort style golf clubs.

THAT... Is the million $$ question and what we should be concerned about.

All those "Book Deals".......... Pure BS.. Just a way to funnel money to a bunch of crooked Politicians.
There are a lot of unread books sitting in boxes in warehouses in Jersey.

Banks don't lend money to people who are hemorrhaging money.

The left has claimed he lied on loan applications, that should be rather easy for the feds to prove. Now shouldn't it?

Exactly, but the media knows that the average American doesn't understand the tax code and it is why the rich hire tax attorneys. Because of this, the media knows they can easily lie to the average American.

Mr. Trump knows he can easily lie to American people about this & other significant issues, it's why he continues to do so.

Again, you or anyone in this thread who is jumping on this bandwagon just shows your ignorance of how our 72,000 page tax code and how sick it is. Trump is no different than any other rich person who knows how to legally keep more of their money.

Only stupid people want to give their money away.
