Not terribly surprising - this is Trump - but note that there is no legal way in which they could have obtained this information.

You got the goods to show that Trump committed tax fraud, I'm there. But there's nothing I can see in this NYT piece that gets you there.

Default By obeying all tax laws, Trump paid no income taxes for 11yr. Yearly IRS audits have found nothing wrong

Despite President Trump's choice not to publish his tax returns, the New York Time has somehow obtained records supposedly of those returns. They have apparently released them publicly, without President Trump's permission.

Publishing someone's tax returns against his wishes is illegal, of course, without an active, legal warrant.

18 Revelations From a Trove of Trump Tax Records
September 27, 2020in News, U.S.

The New York Times has obtained tax-return data for President Trump and his companies that covers more than two decades. Mr. Trump has long refused to release this information, making him the first president in decades to hide basic details about his finances. His refusal has made his tax returns among the most sought-after documents in recent memory.

Among the key findings of The Times’s investigation:

Mr. Trump paid no federal income taxes in 11 of 18 years that The Times examined. In 2017, after he became president, his tax bill was only $750.

I'm guessing this is not the October surprise Don the Con had in mind. Avoidance of income taxes tsk tsk tsk. Not a good look, Mr. President. And very nasty. Oh, so unfair and nasty.

Wow, the NYT has quite a detailed exposé. What a read. Congratulations to them on another fine piece of journalism for the benefit of we the American people.

Default NY Times obtains past 20 years of Trump's taxes

https://www.yahoo.com/news/ny-times-...214154920.html


" The Times has obtained tax-return data for President Trump extending over more than two decades. It tells a story fundamentally different from the one he’s sold to the public.
Mr. Trump’s finances are under stress, beset by hundreds of millions in debt coming due and an I.R.S. audit that could cost him over $100 million.
He paid $750 in federal income taxes in 2016, and nothing at all in 10 of the prior 15 years — largely because he lost so much money."

No but you can say you are and lie as apparently Trump has done. Waiting for the Trump tweet storm to being. Then Trumpers will come back here and parrot whatever Trump said. They seem a little rudderless at the moment.

The irony that Biden may be in better financial shape than Trump.

Color about 150 million of us deeply, deeply surpriised. You'll find that crayon between Furious Blush, Red Ink and Trump's Ties.

Next up: how much of his massive, personally-guaranteed debt traces to Russian banks.

Well, looks like Trump is part of Romney’s 47%.
