I didn’t say it had to be legal. Are you aware of personally that Trump’s accounting/business dealing all have been legal?

I am aware of the fact that he has been under audit and has not been charged with any crimes. That audit at one point had reached a settlement and had been sent to the Joint Committee for review, no charges were ever filed.

Even the NYT has not used the term evasion in their reporting of his tax returns.

Are you personally aware of illegal tax reporting that has been done?

Are there legal ways to accomplish what you suggested? If so, what are they?

Agreed 400K is far too low. $400k isn't rich. That's attorneys, pilots, physicians etc that will get screwed by this. People that still work very hard to do so.

I don’t personally have any details about djt personal situation to implicate or exonerate him and I’m sure you don’t either. If you referred back to my previous post when I said “bs or nonsense” did you think I was implying legally? I’m pretty sure most who read that certainly didn’t think I was talking about legal routes, if you are still unclear please let me know

And they could pay more, so could those in the 300k+ range, the 200k+ range. Who’s going to pay more or sign off on the spending cuts?

Just wanted you to clarify that you had no idea what you were talking about and had nothing to add to the conversation. Thanks for taking care of that for me. I appreciate it.

You don’t have any personal details and didn’t add anything factually either to the specific scenario so there you have it

Actually the spend spend spend shouldn’t happen in an expanding economy and neither should tax cuts. Multiple mistakes that have to be corrected at some point. Also from a federal standpoint most people make 20k aren’t paying income tax, neither aren most in the 50k especially HHLD or they are paying a slim amount.

The scenario you decided to create? No. I did add something to the conversation by informing the poster I responded to how they could get a similar tax result if they so desired, which was the purpose of my post that you decided to respond to. So there you have it.
