14. New York needs to revoke all of the tax abatements they have given him.
Sun Feb 9, 2020, 02:02 AM
Feb 2020

He's gotten millions in tax relief for his properties and business interests (even given his usual penchant for undervaluing everything for tax purposes, but inflating the value of those same properties when going for loans). New York has a lot of really smart lawyers that could find the loopholes in the city and state's contracts with him and make him pay full fare on all of his NY properties and businesses.

Hit him right back, where it hurts him the worst.
