So Are Tr**p's Taxes Going To Be A Big Nothing Burger Too....

[global1]

Is he going to skate on this?

If he is so proud of his tax filings - why has he fought tooth and nail all this time to keep them secret? What did he want to hide?

Why has he lied to the American People that he's been under audit all these years?

1. Paying taxes are for suckers.

According to Trump.

[Claustrum]

5. And a lot of republicans too.

They will proudly say how they pay low taxes.

[TheRealNorth]

13. Well, the probably wrote most of the loopholes

[Ocelot II]

2. It will take awhile to sort through them. They might not contain any clear evidence

of crimes, but they are likely to show what a crappy businessman he really is, which is the most likely reason he didn't want them disclosed. I think the more important issue is the failure of the IRS to audit them like they were supposed to, either because that was the intentional decision of the TFG-appointed IRS commissioner, or because the IRS is so underfunded and understaffed that it can't audit complex returns and instead picks on the little guys.

3. Death and Taxes: We got 1 out of 2 so far

Let's hope the second one comes quickly...

[pandr32]

16. It can't come soon enough.

Oh, to be done with him.

[Walleye]

4. If nothing else it will show many conflicts of interest

[CincyDem]

6. My bet...nothing illegal.

Real estate is the tax code’s great gray zone where everything is arguable and nothing is absolute. I suspect one of Roy Cohn’s training blocks to every questionable client he had based on Capone’s experience…don’t f’ck with the IRS.

[Claustrum]

7. He needed his "businessman" image in order to win the republican nomination

and presidency. If you go back to the interviews of the MAGA crowds back in 2015-2016, every single one of them said TFG is a "great businessman" as part of the reason they support him. He couldn't/wouldn't have won if his taxes were released back then because he would have to defend his great businessman image.

After 2016, it became a great talking point for them. His cultists loved that he fought the MSM and democrats on everything. And taxes is one of them.

8. Some are always hoping for that bombshell that'll blow the lid off

The Kraken, the Arizona vote audit, the Mueller investigation, the Durham investigation, Trump's taxes and so on.

[gab13by13]

9. There is plenty of fraud to be found in Trump's taxes.

With that said, nothing will be done about it.

[Arthur_Frain]

10. I'd lay dollars to donuts his accountants do more time than he will

nt.

[SoCalDavidS]

11. Teflon Man

That's my new name for him, succeeding "Drumpf," and "TFG."

Until someone proves otherwise.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

12. Remember NY sent referrals to IRS? Sounds like

That will take until 2030

[Stinky The Clown]

14. Yes.

I hear Patrick Fitzgerald is working on this. (snark/not true)

[Scrivener7]

15. Probably. They chose the exact years when he was least likely to have commited crimes.

It's like when the drug dealer is tipped off about the raid. There won't be anything but powdered sugar.

Why did they choose those years? Beats the shit out of me.

[tinrobot]

19. They chose them because of oversight reasons

All presidents were supposed to be audited while in office. He wasn't.

Congress has good reason to look into that.

[Scrivener7]

20. Hopefully the DOJ is looking at the years when he was

laundering money left and right.

Hopefully....

[edhopper]

17. His business was already found guilty

of criminal tax fraud. If the Manhattan DA had any balls, Trump would already be on trial.

[usedtobedemgurl]

18. I think his former lawyer, Michael, told us what to look for...

He told AOC, I believe it was her, he would raise the price of a building for loans (this would be documented) and when it came time for taxes, he lowered that price dramatically. That is a big no no. I am sure there is more, but we have been given a road map.

[Mosby]

21. I'd like to know how he got around the AMT.

You can't file a personal return, show millions of dollars of income, and not pay any tax.

The only way is carryover, which is probably bullshit anyway.

[greatauntoftriplets]

22. I want to know more about his bank account in China.
