The bottom line from the Times report: Trump has had small federal tax bills and major financial losses during his business career, and some of his tax maneuvers have come under legal scrutiny.In some years Trump paid no taxes at all, thanks to business losses and write-offs that have come into question.

The Times:"His finances are under stress, beset by losses and hundreds of millions of dollars in debt coming due that he has personally guaranteed. Also hanging over him is a decade-long audit battle with the Internal Revenue Service over the legitimacy of a $72.9 million tax refund that he claimed, and received, after declaring huge losses. An adverse ruling could cost him more than $100 million.

That's some business man now he gets to do the same to this country and worst .

Trump is honorable and trustworthy, abides by the laws of the land, cares about the poor and the weak, and does everything within his power to build a better America for everybody! What has his being a fascist, a liar and a narcissistic sociopath got to do with anything?

Carrot Man even more orange than usual

So- he never broke the law. Who gives a shit. Big nothingburger

Help! Just place him under house arrest until the election! No Electronics! Spare the American people! The Biggest Con in American History!

Yep! A stable genius did all that.

Have you sited the source of these tax records? Let's see them. Put them on the public record. If it was or is true, Lets assume you've never taken a legal tax break..gasp.. such trash you publish without proven sources.

Read djusatoday article. It didn't introduce any criminality. The major concern: a refund he received from the IRS in 2010 aft declaring major financial loses. In 2007, we had a financial meltdown, the Subprime Mortgage Crisis. Many ppl lost $$$, jobs, homes & businesses closed.

Trump 2020

morgfair More BS propaganda from USA as they work with the dems to prop up PeePads Biden.

How long are you going to harp on Trump taxes? It’s probably as as true as the NYT Russian collusion story. 😀

well, I'm the biggest business cheat and liar here, I wish I was a billionaire, instead I'm a low 2-digit millionaire (before paying off debts). it's the American way! I cheat, average Americans pay every cent!!! VOTE QUIMBY!

he's gotten off with everything .

Fake news pushing another fake news story. How about an article talking about getting copies of Joe’s and Hunter’s tax returns.

Are his accountants for hire? We’ve owed business and personal taxes (that we have to make payments on) every year.

TAXES ARE ILLEGAL AND IF YOU CAN GET AROUND THAT, THEN MORE POWER TO YOU!!!

And the NYT has been a credible source since when?

morgfair Well I am very sorry when businesses lose money but losses should not be deducted from income taxes. Don’t me because of course small businesses should get a break not million, billion dollar companies.

Winning! MAGA Trump2020

morgfair This is infuriating. A school teacher can write off no more than $250/year for classroom supplies they purchase & donate for use in class, and this piece of crap can’t write off $70K/yr for haircuts.

morgfair lol! Any good tax attorney or CPA would explain real estate developers don’t initially pay income tax due to depreciation and amortization. It’s deferred. They pay when projects are sold or no new development. They pay lots of real estate taxes FakeNewsMediaClowns

BOYCOTT USA TODAY--A TRUMP TOOL

morgfair

We the people were already expecting this crap from the Democrats and leftist media. TRUMP2020 RedWave2020

SenateGOP HouseGOP SenateDems how about new policy and law that all foreign losses are not deductible on our soil. If you invest and loose you can take you deduction in the foreign country system not ours. IRStaxpros

This is trash journalism taking advantage of the fact that the avg person works a W2 job, fills out a 1040EZ and doesn’t understand business taxes. Paper losses aren’t cash losses. They are a part of depreciation, legal write offs etc. losses in one co can also offset profits...

And this surprise who? He’s a republican they lie cheat and steal.

BFD

Politicians create tax laws........

Loopholes in the tax law and creative accounting by very smart accountants and tax attorneys. I’m sure he pays them very well to keep the authorities at bay.

The real news - EXTREMELY disappointing for The New York Times and the Democrats no doubt - is that President Trump has no significant foreign investments. By comparison, do you remember the Clinton Global Initiative?

Called laws

Like amazon ?

70K annually for that hair result should be enough to question his decisions.

Pretty damn smart of him ! He has been continuously audited by the IRS. Zip, nada, nothing. As usual the left is looking for ANYTHING, to bash Trump and remove him from office and the media, that Trump bad mouths...is fueling the flames. TrumpPence2020LandslideVictory

Yeah and some years he paid millions.. so what?

Yet the Federal Government never sent the Clinton's to prison for not paying their taxes & having questionable write offs. Especially with the Haitian Earthquake Relief scam where Millions of Dollars in contributions are missing and the Clinton's are the person's of Interest.

Well, this is how the tax code works. Tax codes written by Congress. Which Presidential candidate has been a member of Congress then VP since 1973? Maybe he was part of writing that code?

Scammers

Incorrect.

Time to subpoena his accountants.

Hope the $$ was good from Biden n DNC FUNDS !! Because Refusing a document from Trump lawyers show it's was a pd off deal !! BUT when the Ad Hits at 6am. !! That a BIGGER CLUE !! BUSTED !! FAKE NEWS MEDIA !! That's BS !! We Are Standing UP for PRESIDENT Not Wanting this for US !!

USA is reduced to a smear rag.

Deducting hair styling costs is the newest low...

Just another Nothing Burger from the Democrats

I want his CPA. No one wants to pay taxes!

Now let's do Joe & Hunter Biden and Nancy Pelosi.

The only good thing about NYT lining a dog crate, it soaks up urine. Or used for lighting a fire in the fireplace on those cold chilly days.

He’s as fake as that orange makeup he wears lol

Thank you, I definitely will vote TrumpPence2020 now! Only recent president I know that’s lost money while being a politician. Please fact check the last 1/2 dozen previous POTUS that made millions in/after office and tell me different?

The entire country, at least the part of the country with people that have even half a brain already knew that Trump was hiding his taxes because he is a liar,joke, and a tax fraud.

The criminal being the leader of the Republican Party

donnie wearing his pumpkinspice blend

Whenever he puts his hands up he is lying.

HIS ACCOUNTANT is using the AMERICAN TAX LAW just like other BILLIONAIRES! PS note he is STILL IN AUDIT! HE's BEEN TELLING you THAT NOW FOR YEARS and YOU AND YOUR MSMCoConspirators HAVE LIED FOR YEARS! PROOF of your ETHICS!

Big nothing story, desperate media. Sad...

Smart.

For all of you in your hand to mouth lifestyle that don't understand how money works, it's because the last few months of the fiscal year you spend more than your estimated taxable amount for this year on things you will need in the next! Over your head? Oh well! read tax code.

How does he get away with this serial disregard for humanity?

Breaking news....from 2016... SMH. You can spread out business losses over 10 years. It’s not illegal and it’s not Russian.

You mean to say that orange is not the new black ... on financial charts

Are we surprised? The “good business man” persona was created by Trump’s masterful use of smoke and mirror tactics.

Another FAKE NEWS article from the New York Times (no sources). Even if it were to be true... were any tax laws broken? The President has donated his entire salary for the last 3 1/2 years. Just another FAKE NEWS HIT JOB by a GARBAGE paper called the New York Times

You Trumpturds should be ashamed of yourselves! You elected a friggin fraud who is essentially bankrupt right now! Only thing is...he added $6 trillion to OUR National Debt! You followed a grifter.

Like every rich business owner I’ve ever heard brag about it.

Fuck me! How orange does he want to get?

People want to attack him for this but in reality most of the rich including just about everyone in Washington pay little to no taxes at all.

Just another liberal attack piece because Joes slipping big time! 1) it’s the tax code if you don’t like it, then change it. 2) tax attorneys and Accountants do their taxes, Trump just signs them.

A Magician 🎩 !! 🖕🤡 Karma on his side , wait for it . 😂✌️

That comes into question. What happened to the IRS?

Fake tax deductions! Joe and Kamala are bringing hope to USA!Due to the late slow disastrous approach to pandemia by Trump, USA is a huge graveyard with more than 204000 coronavirus patient’s deaths. Trump destroyed the economy and cannot respond to racial crisis properly! Vote !

Just remember the government sent Wesley Snipes to prison for not paying his taxes & having questionable write offs......

So he's got a great CPA. What's your point?

So if he’s broken the law then charge him with tax fraud. Pretty simple.

The NYT corporate🇺🇸 US media&Democrats politicians as Pelosi& Biden with their massive attacks to Trump only, are energising his followers. AsClinton did, treating Trump voters as 'basket of deplorables' TheTAX attacks are an evident insult to the intelligence of Trump followers.

JoeBiden should stride up to CadetBoneSpurs on the debate stage, toss 750 bucks at him, and speak for millions of Americans saying “Take yer cash back. We don’t want it. Go tip yer golf caddie”. Debates2020 USElections2020 TrumpIsBroke VoteHimOut

No one cares. It's not going to change a single vote. People didn't vote for him based on how rich he is or home much taxes he paid.

lol, the rich know how to reduce their taxes, highly paid tax consultants will use every loophole, the media knows this, just another shit stirring article

What? Trump is a tax cheat and a liar? No way!

Wait.. how do i write off my taxes Asking for a friend

What is TheRevAl Sharpton's excuse?

Oh. Why did Hunter Biden receive 3.5 million from the mayor of Moscow?

So the NYTimes broke the law to prove Trump didn't. That was awfully nice of them. TrumpTaxReturns TrumpTaxes TaxReturns MAGA MAGA2020

Nobody cares about a false story. If by chance it is true-someone is in deep shit for leaking.

If Trump gets another four years he will take his own country the same way as his unsuccessful business and that means down a very steep hill.

FakeNews is becoming the norm for MEDIA

You are fishing, not Reporting

Trump didn’t make the tax rules. Biden, Pelosi, the Clintons & Obama are the politicians who did. Today these politicians are all SuperRich — yet they’ve ONLY ever been employed by the government. 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

If true, it’s due to the f’d up tax codes. I’m positive that every wealthy person does what they can...including the over paid actors and actresses that try to claim that they’re the moral compass of America.

USA Today, your headlines are pretty watered down. $750 of income tax for 2 years is appalling. Having a huge debt coming due with an unknown backer is a security risk to his country.

This is why he must prolong the presidency for as long as he can, even if it means destroying America.

Damn, he is smarter than I realized ! TrumpPence2020LandslideVictory

So what we learned from these anonymous sources was that Trump received ZERO dollars from Russia but Hunter Biden got $3.5 million !

On a what 2005 tax return Wow that’s big

Lies

I expect Biden will find the IRS completely gutted.

RobertEdgemon2 Sounds like a ‘crime family’ is gonna be brought down soon!

Also, he donates hos entire paycheck

Scrutiny hmmm a word to sensationalize. Reality this does not show wrong doing. Keep trying, keep failing.

We are really confused ...... Why is Trump worth $2.5 BB if his such a bad businessman smart enough to hire tax lawyers and may be practice impact investments that earn him TAX write offs? Looks to us like he dogded the shot gun house and has lived the dream?

The worlds most famous business failure?

Are we surprised? At least those of us who have a functioning brain and ANY common sense...

The Trump Campaign says the NYT story is riddled with inaccuracies. Fine, have Trump produce his tax returns and prove it.

So he is not in the Anyone’s pocket. Ok I’m good with this. Trump 2020

Memo to GOP, SenateGOP and HouseGOP: 'Hell is truth seen too late.' - Thomas Hobbes, The Leviathan, 1651

He’s the most anti-American, American president in history.

As a New York real estate tycoon he is a perfect conduit for questionable financing. He works on the debt side of the ledger and probably pays way to much for his investments as making a profit is not the goal. Thus his tax disparity. His business requires a constant cash influx.

A fraud. Un-fucken-believable.

I’m far more interested in the tax returns of a politician who became a multimillionaire than the tax returns of a billionaire who became a politician

As he tried to run this country like he ran his failed businesses. FakePresident

Nixon said “ I am not a crook.” Trump says, “ I am being audited.”

Think I'll hold off on the outrage till we find out if it is illegal or just good business

Bottom line: he used a law signed by Barry O'bomber the liberal messiah

I see orange. As in prison jump suit.

And magically this bullshit story comes out just before the election. Truly shitty fakes news reporting here... you people are awful.

Trump’s hardcore supporters know he’s a crook. The only reason they continue to follow him is because he’s Caucasia.

In other words... Nobody cares. 😂😂😂

Read his niece’s book. This is par for his financial course!

I love the collective amnesia. 2008 to 2016 absolutely sucked economically.

So why should voters elect a loser for President?

VOTE FOR JOE BIDEN… Elect Someone Who Pays Their Taxes!

And the IRS did exactly that and found NOTHING... Ever. FakeNewsMediaClowns TrumpTaxReturns

He paid more for a porn star than taxes!!! 🤢

So nothing illegal, and he still has more money than you. Check. Still voting Trump.

What sugarcoating you put on it, how about lifetime conman owes millions, lied on his taxes just like everything that comes out of his mouth, and has lived a life on credit through fraud.

In America billionaires and global corporations pay no income taxes.* But you do. The rich and powerful are playing you for a sucker. *They've rigged the tax laws so it's perfectly legal

the bottom line....so far, boys and girls. Bigger and badder is on way.

Why are you passing gossip? nytimes does not have Trump's tax records. Those cannot be obtained legally without Trump's permission. And, since 90% of media in the U.S. are owned by six companies, it's time to re-regulate the media again. De-regulation is not working.

Take this headline and stuff it, where the sun don’t shine! DonTheCon Unfit45 BidenHarris2020

I AM JESUS ​​CHRIST AND I DO NOT SUPPORT RACISM !! DONALD TRUMP IS THE OLD SERPENT 'THE DRAGON' 'THE DEVIL'. I WILL DEFEND AFRO-AMERICANS !! I came to step on the serpent's head. 'Revelation of the bible'...

Who cares 🤷🏼‍♂️

Because he LIES about everything— wedding vows, taxes, financial obligations to foreign countries, etc., etc., etc.😟😟

What his tax returns didn’t show was collusion with Russia - meanwhile Hunter Biden received a $3.5 million wire transfer from Elena Baturina. Ms. Baturina is the wife (widow) of the former mayor of Moscow.

TrumpSyndicate (DJT, GOP, Trump Org, Barr, DOJ) is a crime scene whichever direction you look. As POTUS, Trump is: - padding own pockets w govt funds - destroying fabric of Americana - plunging Int’l credibility - purging criminal records of allies - targeting political foes

Well, you know...only suckers pay taxes. 🤨
