Amazing how ignorant people are of Trump's taxes, write-offs AND INCOME!!!

[mudwhistle]

Trump says we should vote for him because he is such a great businessman

A businessman who loses a billion dollars in just one year

And that is based on what evidence?
He hasn't released his returns?
Where did you get this lie from?

 

[Skull Pilot]

This is too funny. The same people who are now defending Trump possibly paying NO federal income tax for 20

years are those who endlessly rant about how even the poor should pay some amount of taxes,

for that 'skin in the game' thing? Eh?

The poor should have 'skin in the game', while the billionaire Trump should get off scot free...

And yet you don't think there should be a flat income tax but you whine about people using all the deductions and loopholes a flat tax would eliminate

Your flat tax idea would have a person earning 20,000 a year in gross income pay 2000 in income tax. No, I don't think that's fair.

So then stop your whining

Stop your trolling.

Pot kettle, Honey

Trump said not paying income taxes made him smart.

Running businesses that are so unprofitable they don't generate any taxable income is 'smart'?

 

[NYcarbineer]

The MSM and idiots galore are having an organism! Trump had according this article:

The Times, which hired tax experts to analyze the records, determined that “tax rules that are especially advantageous to wealthy filers would have allowed Mr. Trump to use his $916 million loss to cancel out an equivalent amount of taxable income over an 18-year period” -- more than $50 million a year.

Bombshell report on Trump taxes sends GOP nominee reeling

Now think just for a moment. Trump had according to the above "experts" then $50 million a year in
Taxable income to not pay taxes on! OH MY GOODNESS!!!

hmmm....
Let's see.. Assume Trump had businesses with total assets of $2 billion for those last 18 years.
And if Trump earned the average annual returns in long-term real estate investing vary by the area of concentration in the sector. Average 20-year returns in the commercial real estate slightly outperform the S&P 500 Index, running at around 9.5%.

Investopedia What average annual return is typical for a long term investment in the real estate sector?

HMMMMM...
Average real estate holdings of $2 billion over 18 years at 9.5% equals $190 million a year!
$190 million in ROI (for you dummies... Return on Investment) with operating expenses of 50%
leaves $95 million taxable income LESS the notorious $50 million TAX LOSS carry forward LEAVES
$45 million TAXABLE INCOME you idiots!


THAT IS IF HE COULD EVEN WRITE OFF $50 MILLION A YEAR IN LOSSES!

Why doesn't Trump release his tax returns and straighten this all out

What we do know......Trump the great businessman lost a billion dollars in just one year

He is now a serial moocher who refuses to pay taxes

Freeloader Donny

Why doesn't he release his returns?
Two reasons.

1. Because by-law he doesn't have to and his lawyers recommend that he doesn't.
2. If he releases them, it just gives the media more stuff to lie about.

The tax returns would show the truth.

Did he break any tax laws? He gets audited every year. If he was cheating, the Obama IRS would have already made that public.

Your issue is not with Trump, its with the tax code that allows the very rich to avoid taxes on some income. Now, who wrote the tax code? Do you know? Congress, and congress has been controlled by democrats for most of the last 80 years------------------------------------------------------sooooo, the tax code that you so hate was written by the party that you so love. Said another way, you are an idiot.

So what you're saying is you're parroting a talking-point based off of speculation rather than facts.

He should never release his returns, because taking a legal deduction isn't against the law, but Democrats and their corrupt media always finds a way to make it appear illegal. At the same time they make Obstruction Of Justice and taking bribes from foreign leaders appear legal.

 

[Iceweasel]

So his fixed assets contribute to taxable income? The amount "owed" to the IRS does not go up with property values.

Trump was speculated to only be making between 3 to 15 million at the beginning of the election.
That constitutes his gross earnings, and therefore his taxable income. Apparently he is not paying any taxes though.

Apparently, why? It's apparent the leftists believe Republicans are guilty until proven innocent and Democrats are innocent until proven guilty.

If their candidate isn't formally charged under a friendly administration there was no wrong doing.

[Iceweasel]

The truth about Trump is that he owns a bunch of very expensive buildings which produce very little money.

Where can we find this truth? You forgot to say.

His broke ass campaign comes to mind.

The conclusion was reaching on a variety of things. You can find several dozen unique sources if you look them up on google.

flat tax is the only fair tax. Lets say its 10%. If you make 100K you pay 10K, if you make 10K you pay 1K, if you make 10 mil you pay 1 mil.

most flat tax plans also have a floor below which you pay no tax

It is if you are drawing a handsome salary from said corporation. But all this is based on assumptions by dishonest people with an ax to grind.

he never said that. he wants to lower the tax rate on businesses large and small. that would create jobs and encourage expansion of small and large businesses. Why is helping American businesses a bad thing?

You don't refuse to pay taxes. You simply use the money and defer paying taxes by reinvesting it.
