Sun Sep 27, 2020, 06:45 PM
Sep 2020

Most of those buildings with his name on them do not belong to him. He merely has a contract to manage them, and he's not even doing that well enough to make money. That's why he has lost his contracts and his name has come off of many of them. The ones he does own are mortgaged to the hilt and then some. If you liquidated all his assets it would not be enough to pay his debts off.

What he does have is a few properties that generate cash flow. and the only reason he and his idiot kids have that money to spend to support their lifestyles is they don't pay their bills. That is not assets. It's grifting.

My net worth is higher than Donald Trump's. You know why? Because I own the single wide trailer I live in in a Senior mobile home park.

I heard from a neighbor who lives close to him and sort of knows him that he did some cockamamie thing where he got his ex-wife to agree to put the place in her name after the county got really into going after some of his assets. So now his ex-wife hasn't paid them either. He told a neighbor that he "knows someone higher up in the county offices" so he doesn't have to worry. He's active in the county GOP (no surprise there), and owns a business.

It's just that type of person who's an avid Trumper. They actually admire the crookedness.

Sun Sep 27, 2020, 10:41 PM
Sep 2020

Also, as a federal employee, who is reminded weekly from the first of each year until the due date of the return, if I don’t file or file a fraudulent return, it is grounds for immediate dismissal and possibly criminal charges. We all sign the jurat on our returns under penalties of fraud and perjury. If we have a balance due it had better be paid in full before the due date, even if you filed for an extension. And if you can’t pay you had better get an agreed installment or payment plan in place ASAP. And all of this has to be reported to your supervisor.

I once made an honest $200.00 error on my return and you had better believe I had paid that $200.00 before the return had been processed. And I still had to report the error and fill out forms to explain. All before the due date. IRS don’t play with government employees and the last time I check, The Orange Mussolini is on our payroll. Lock him up.

Trump’s tax returns reenforce the economy he wants: one where workers subsidize the wealthy who pay nothing.— Ben Rhodes (@brhodes) September 28, 2020


That $750 a year Trump paid in 2016 and 2017? And $0 for the previous 10 years?

Teachers pay more than $7,000 a year, firefighters, $5,000, and nurses more than $10K. And this manipulative, psychopathic narcissist thinks he's being smart not to pay his fair share.

Shows once again that he has zero care or concern for the country and is a low-life TAKER.

It's one thing to receive help when you need it but otherwise contribute. But this guy is a leech, a canker sore, a pus-filled boil, low life conman.
