    Bottom line: Trump has obeyed the income tax laws passed by Congress.

    On further inspection, that happened 13 years ago...lol

    Agree, or not, it appears to be legal. Surely you don't think Trump is the first person to do that? Whatever he did. If he did anything at all.

    That why rich people create charities and foundations. Like the Clinton Foundation.

    Then why are you not angry at government for writing the tax laws. The underfunded IRS audited me twice in the past 6 years and I'm not even wealthy. No additional tax required on both audits. I can't imagine feeling sorry for the IRS.

    The president is always above the law. You should know that.

    They are auditing middle class people because their budgets have not allowed them to have auditing teams large enough to go after the very wealthy or large corporations.

    There have been several congressional hearings on this which led to the massive increase in their budget after being slashed for years.

    You realize he probably paid more in taxes in 2020 than you'll pay in your entire life right? There's a lot of other means of taxation beyond income tax. The depreciation deduction is in place to entic people to invest in real estate which can be a risky investment.

    If it was legal, sure. You're only mad because the Bad Orange Man did it.

    Either we don’t care, or we don’t respect the legal opinion of randos on the internet with zero legal background lol

    CONSPIRACY!

    Here is one from the Hill

    The Associated Press

    You don’t have to believe it — my sources are for the hundreds of people that simply browse not the partisan hacks that don’t really care about facts unless it matches their agenda, not saying you are either of course, just a general statement

    Every article you post will be using Democrats in Congress as their source...lol. The same Democrats that had "concrete evidence" that Trump is a Russian spy.
