Trump was only billionaire to receive tax credit for middle class...might not be a billionaire

Donald Trump is either very lucky or hiding something.

The flame-throwing Republican contender for the White House appears to be the only New York City billionaire who snagged a tax break aimed at middle class homeowners, raising even more questions about his alleged billions.

An analysis of property records for 38 Big Apple billionaires on the “Forbes 400” list conducted by Crain’s New York Business found Trump was the only one to receive the STAR tax credit.

That credit is reserved for homes that make under $500,000 and gives those entitled to it around $300 off their tax bill.
