He can't go 17 days without publicity ...otherwise he'd be confused with Herbert Hoover, or as he gets fatter ...Taft!

He bragged about how he avoided millions of taxes b/c of his bankruptcies, and how his businesses were doing
In general. This i heard is legal, but if you get to write off such huge losses a tax breaks, then you're hardly a good businessman are you?

He's still far from being in the clear. In his own words, if you have nothing hide, then reveal away. He tells others this concerning their secrets, but when we'd like to know about his tax forma, he's nothing but sad and sorry excuses.

I'm not surprised at all. I think it's partly a control issue. Trump likes to be in control at all times. He probably views the idea of giving up control to alcohol rather repugnant.

According to that bunch of CEO's that just told Trump to **** himself, he hasn't done anything yet to encourage manufacturing.

Twist it however you like. Trump is still a hypocritical sack of poop.

Typical hypocrisy from Trump. Attacks Amazon while selling stuff on Amazon.

We all know he's pissed at the WaPo for their coverage and trying to take it out on Jeff Bezos. Maybe Bezos will refuse to sell Ivanka's shoes or Trump's book. Trump would squeal like a pig about that.

This from a piece of garbage who bragged during his debate with Clinton "that he hadn't paid taxes in 17 years, because he is smart"!

And he danced with the sheiks in Saudi Arabia, a country with an oppressive regime exporting terrorism.
As far as Saudi Arabia goes ...tRump is "Sheik Yerbouti".

Why does the President of the country attack a company working within the law, for doing business. He said it himself -- he didn't pay tax because he didn't have to...so why shouldn't Amazon use what they have at their finger tips to maximize their profits.

Also - yes Amazon just did a huge hiring spree around the country. Is he trying to make people lose those jobs?

What is wrong with him........

Not sure if your question is rhetorical or not, but he's mad at Jeff Bezos, who runs Amazon and the Washington Post, because the WaPo has been so critical of Trump.

It Trumpworld, it makes sense.

Yeah it was kind of rhetorical. I know he's spatting with Bezos....but how ridiculous. A grown man -- the PRESIDENT -- how do people deal with the childishness.

He himself bragged about how he didn't pay tax using the system that is there...why shouldn't other companies and people.

Oh because Trump is special - he's very special.
