‘Put this Mandarin Mussolini Menace behind bars’: Michael Cohen says Trump is vulnerable on tax fraud

[basquebromance]

The public can finally see the self-proclaimed “clever genius,” or stable genius or whatever, he did not pay the taxes the most modest wage-earner would pay—at one point nothing at all.

This says the worst thing possible about Trump: that he's not as rich as he claimed to be

Evidently Trump has great accountants and tax advisors

Take your bitch to the IRS

“Donald would call us in and he would say, ‘I want to be higher on the Forbes list,'” says Michael Cohen. “What we were tasked with was to take the assets that existed in the previous year’s personal financial statement and come up with a way to get as close to that $10 billion.”

Isn't Cohen the one who was caught paying the stripper?

Trump’s returns likely look similar to those of many other wealthy tax cheats — hundreds of partnership interests, highly-questionable deductions, and debts that can be shifted around to wipe out tax liabilities

How much should he have paid?

Show your math.

Cohen? The ex-con who lied to Congress and perjured himself? That Cohen?

If he broke the law, I can GUARANTEE he'd already be under indictment. If you consider it "cheating" to use the huge, complex tax code to your personal advantage, you are going to have a very large list of "cheaters".

His taxes were made public to try to embarrass him. Nothing more will come of it because he has the best tax attorneys and accountants money can buy and his enemies already knew he broke no laws. Any of you people who are still raging over him being some kind of crook, are, yourselves very close to being mentally ill.

What actions do you think would be justified against him if he runs and wins in '24?

Given Cohen's years of close association with trump as his "fixer", Cohen knows trump's thinking processes better than any common trump Nazi. So, he understands and has witnessed, firsthand, trump's many criminal acts. Cohen was, after all, not simply trump's attorney, he was a top soldier in trump's criminal organization.

Basque credits Cohen.

So, basque is the one.

That's the way it looks to me. Hire the very best accountants and you get to pay very little in taxes.
