So the NYT article is about his personal, not corporate tax. This new article of yours compares the paper's corporate tax to his personal tax. As you know, completely different tax rules. To avoid apples and oranges, compare his 6 bankrupt corporations to the NYT.
True. So since he turned a big profit when he took a billion dollar loss for tax purposes as you say, then he'll be eager to prove that by showing us exactly what happened, right? And if he continues to be secretive, that will disprove your theory that he made big bucks when he took the billion dollar loss.
I think the only public ones went bankrupt. But I'd be happy to be corrected if you can point out any public Trump entities. Yet. At the rate we are finding out about illegal behavior, he's lucky the campaign will be over in a month and the spotlight will be turned off. barfo
Very unlikely. But I would keep an open mind to being convinced by the financials that he is a successful businessman rather than a con man, as it currently appears. barfo
John Kerry did not claim the Heinz fortune as his qualification for office. So that's a pretty big difference. barfo
Nope. Both issues are relevant because of the relative lack of qualifications of Johnson and Trump. Also, this is hardly the only distraction from 'serious conversation' in the race. barfo
Just pointing out the dual standard. Kerry is a gold digger of sorts. His net worth is basically his home. His wife has piles of gold. There was talk about how his decisions, if elected, might affect her wealth. So if Trump put everything in his wife's name, it would be off limits? I don't think so.
100% of her losses. Why whine about Trump using the tax loss provision, but not say squat about the liar doing the same?
LOL Excuses, excuses. Taxes are taxes. You know that a guy pumping $millions of his own money wants to do so in a way that is a write off in case of failure.
Neither the RNC nor the DNC wants a Libertarian on stage in the debates. The leaked DNC emails prove that party is a scam. I expect no better of the RNC. So if the media and the two parties can squash discussion, there isn't much discussion. That said, the more exposure the Libertarians get, the more they rank in the polls. I don't expect them to win this time, but from ~0% to ~1% to ~10% in three straight elections is real progress.
