As Muellers team pours over Trumps tax returns how many counts of fraud will they find?

Trumps tax returns are thousands of pages long. Mueller has FBI agents following the money around the world. Trump is in really big trouble.

Tax fraud, bank fraud, money laundering and Trump thinks he can beat this on his own.

As I posted before, if Trump fires Mueller that would lead to impeachment. There would be no other options for congress except putting in place another special prosecutor with protection. This country would explode if Trump fired Mueller and the Republicans did nothing. That would not stand, no fucking way.

4. Aren't most of his "businesses" sole proprietorships...?

From what I've heard, he's done all of his dealings as small, personally and family owned businesses.

I think it's probably more like looking for a needle in a haystack of needles.

8. I think this is what trump* fears the most, because he will be unmasked

Unmasked as not being nearly as rich as he claims, and/or unmasked as having committed tax fraud. And the first will be a bigger blow to him, personally, because it hits both his ego and his reputation, about which he seems to be frighteningly delusional.

10. If you want to know what is going to happen to Trump. Watch the Manafort trial this summer.

Mueller does not play. This investigation is extremely serious. When he lays out his charges against Trump it will be game, set, match.

Republicans will have no choice but to act. If they did not act they would not be able to go town hall meetings without protection. It would get really and scary for them.

What we should watch for are hints coming to the fact that Trump is Broke and he is running a Ponzi Operation.

When we learned he was Tax free for a number of years via his Bankruptcies aggregated Loses provisions.

My guess is Trump Crime Syndicate has leveraged bogus Appraisals and are burning lines of Credit which would not show up as Income but can be used as a lose provision.

Still say these people are Bust.
