Scarface was caught by cheating on taxes.

Will Trump suffer the same ignoble end? And which federal facility would be sufficiently plush for his standards?

I cannot imagine a more karma-filled result than Teh Donald being handcuffed and escorted to a detention facility to await trial.

If they can lock up Blade, they can certainly lock up Sniffles The Clown.

at least that's what we call him here in Chicago. You know Chicago, that dank, dark, filled with N....... who shoot up all the streets at night and show how failed Obama has been as president, and where Trump is afraid to go because it is so unsafe, and where crime is out of control, and where black on black crime is Hillary's fault because she didn't stay her and do her job when living here, and it is Bill's fault because of all the affairs he had, and it is a conspiracy that Lester Holt is also from Chicago and he asked mean questions of Teh Don, and . . . . and . . . . and . . . . and . . . .and despite having 3 million people, has a lower per capita crime rate than several southern conservative urban areas and only Teh Don can fix Chicago, just like he will fix the US and A, and it is all liberals' fault and the media is in the tank for Hillary because she bribes them with her foundation money, and Obama really wasn't born in the US and A and he really is a muslin and Teh Don will hire the best people in the world to fix Chicago once and for all.

Whew. That actually hurt my brain while writing it.

I do not know if it is true.

He said they are looking at him for fraud. They can only go back a certain number of years on a federal audit he said unless it is some sort of fraud case apparently they are going back further than the normal cut off.
