I want to see because he doesn't want to release it. It's similar to boobs, I've seen Mrs HCPs but I haven't seen your wife's. Guess whose I want to see.
Real estate business people have many years they pay no taxes, then they sell a massive property and make a shit ton. But some of that shit ton gets eaten up by NOLs.
Should that go for every public official then? Its highly more likely they have more vested interest by local businesses and factions versus Trump and his spooky russian connects. Plus on a day by day scale, public officials probably have a more direct effect on your life.
Could be. It looks like if he wasn't president he would already be looking to trade for a newer model. At this point he would probably be willing to sell her at a loss to get the tax write off
Gross to think about since he is Ivanka's dad. But as a non related party, I totally would give Ivanka the business.
I want to know if there's any substance to his made in America schpiel...want to see where he's kept tax havens offshore, how he's dodged paying any taxes for decades...etc...I'm not blindly assuming there's nothing to see in his disclosure mainly because he won't disclose it....if he showed transparency, then people propably would find it boring....create a mystery behind it and makes the public wonder why
It's a little more complicated. The media will hire biased accountants to dig through the thousands of pages looking for anything that can be twisted into a rasta tweet.
Tax returns aren't a clear picture of much of anything. You won't know how much he made in equity as Trump Tower gained in value. Or what his solely or closely held corporations and LLCs made, spent, and filed on their taxes. Neato boogeyman though. Nixon released his to prove he wasn't a crook. That should say it all.
It would be fun to go through many of the Hillary email and Wall Street speeches threads and see if some of the opinions on what a presidential candidate/president should disclose is consistent to opinions expressed in this thread. I'm guessing mine and @JFizzleRaider's are.
JFiz, you seem to be arguing that it is better if the public has less information, because information can be misinterpreted. That seems to me like a really, really bad argument. Plenty of examples of countries that follow that line of thinking... not many of them you'd even want to visit, much less live. barfo
