    1. @Eddie Barrera no, he’s been showing insurance one value and the IRS another, claiming that his properties magically lose millions in value every time tax season rolls around, like clockwork for decades!

    2. @Terry Saunders but link me to that,Where can I find what you say,what do I type in what you just said to find out if it’s true or not.Or is it still a reliable source said he overheard she say,that the janitor overheard an intern say Trump took in money from a foreign country.

    1. @West Texas Oil Wonder how many lies Trump will tell..they should have an instant fact checker on stage. but then trump would use his bone spurs excuse to not show up.

    2. he tends to project his own wrong doing onto others. I have finally if he loses we will learn a lot more not long after.

    3. How can the demo-rats be right, when the report cane out of the N.Y, slimes, the same ones with the collusion, pollution, you know the 30 mil. wasted tax dollars, and your skinny dipping candidate who swims naked in front secret service agents, and touch little girls.

    1. Worse. They are racist. The only way somebody could vote for Trump is if they hate their enemy more than they love their children. Only racism can fuel such hate.

    2. They are brainwashed. They are victims and the US should be trying to rehabilitate and come together. Don’t keep alienating each other. That conflict just gets exploited by the corrupt.

    3. no we`re not stupid to vote for a treasonous person like Biden and obama spying on a sitting president, they both should be sent to gitmo.

    1. Trump has leveraged his “assets“ to the point where he doesn’t really outright own much. Foreign banks (mostly Russian and Duetche) essentially own everything.

  1. And it took 4 years to get this?? The voters should’ve seen this before voting. How does he just get away with everything?

    1. the lord is using him for Israel, why you think his last name is Trump. the trumpet of God will sound and get his people out of this earth.

  2. Living his life in luxury and pays almost nothing in tax…. that’s disgusting and utterly horrible for someone who says he loves the country

    1. NYT conveniently left out how much he paid in property and payroll tax, and its probably more than any of us will pay in our life time. And the article admits he paid the US treasury 1 million in 2016 and 4.2 million in 2017.

    1. @old school outlaw any nobel *contributed* can nominate someone. There’s plenty of documented cases where bribes were given to be nominated. He won’t win, (Obama should NOT have won. Lol had to get that off my chest) and it’s an empty platitude that only says he has enough power to corrupt a supposedly humanitarian institution….which is just a depressing nod to how our world works

      Edit: contributor*

    1. @Cowboy Bob They put in some serious work on this article. 😳 I don’t understand why it isn’t mandatory to provide at least 5 years of taxes before you can be considered suitable for running in the first place. I understand it’s a public office however the seriousness of the position should warrant a more vigorous type of vetting.

    1. @David salo Agreed… He uses the same defence for any question that he can’t answer, “fake news” or it’s a “nasty question” and then he doesn’t answer the question anyway, then “fox not news” peddles some lie to back him.

    2. You don’t know what a tax return for a business owner is like do you? All of his business gets audited to death every year

    3. @Matt M Yes I do actually know what it is like. If there is nothing to hide then just show the tax return publically.

    1. @Paul Beezum) It’s because of the little voter turnout in 2016 Presidential Election we got the criminal and impeached “president.” Mrs. Clinton would have heeded the warnings that the Intel agencies had given about COVID-19’s deadliness and acted accordingly. We wouldn’t have suffered the 200,000+ (and counting) deaths of our fellow Americans in the short amount of time the Racist, Fascist, Snowflake-in-Chief had lied to the American People. #VoteResponsibly2020

    2. Gosh, I hope you’re not from France. If they don’t lock him immediately up after a Biden landslide victory, he might attempt an exile to that country to avoid facing charges.

  3. Imagine that. A pathological liar lying about money. Who would have thought? How about every rational person on planet earth.

    1. @Hampar Turfanda and you know that how,so ur the judge,not the tax office you are the judge,hey Turfanda has proof that everyone pays taxes in this country except Trump,You would think a tax office manager would be in congress, testifying that Trump hasn’t paid taxes,really you don’t want to hear and wait if this news is really true,If they say Trump ran over a dinosaur on The road,you guys will want him locked up before anyone can defend themselves,Trump did you run over a dinosaur ,Yes your honor,it was Joe Biden,he said his been in office for 180 yrs.🙊🙊🙊

    2. @Angel Benitez actually, trump’s success with the economy was a false bottomed drawer. Eventually, the reasons for it would fall through and crash.
