How does an individual LOSE $1 Billion in a year?

[nat4900]

We are not talking about a country here (although there are some whose GDP is just about $1 billion), but we are talking about an individual who is running for president on the mantra of "the best businessman on the planet.....ever......trust him, believe in him....he's the greatest, etc."

Yes, our tax system is seriously flawed in allowing someone, like Trump, to not only list losses of $916 million in ONE single year (and the repercussions that such a loss may have also caused on others)....BUT to turn around and be exempt from any tax burden for 18 subsequent years...........AND, the clincher, is to carry on in your lifestyle after such a loss, to STILL be living in a penthouse, have a private plane and still be able to walk into most banks and get additional risky loans.

I know that many of us have written Trump's eulogy over many other discovered flaws in Trump's character and history, but surely the average voter must place aside any hatred of Clinton and REJECT this charlatan who could seriously damage not only our economy, but who is thin-skinned enough to even risk our world standing.

Obviously, youre ignorant of tax law and liability. You'll also note that the nyt defrauded the IRS out of millions due to some shuck and jive accounting.

Trump wants to trust him as a businessman?

Is that the same paper that Donald Trump referred to as a failing business?

lol, so you're comparing Trump's business ventures to a company that Trump himself derisively refers to as failing.

good one.

What ever Trump did or didn't do was legal or the Hussein administration would have indicted him a long time ago so all the speculation about Trump's taxes is a moot point. The question remains why did the IRS director "take the 5th" when questioned about the IRS being used by the administration to punish political enemies. While we are at it, why did the president authorized 400 million (or more) to be shipped in cash and Swiss bonds and Euros to be shipped to a country that supports terrorism. Lefties often seem confused about the difference between elected officials misusing the IRS and taxpayer dollars and a civilian's God given right to try to keep most of the money he earns.

There are many billionaires who lose $1B+ in a year, particularly if their personal assets are tied closely to their business holdings.

It's just a matter of percentage and business cycles.

Not that big a deal, really, and certainly not a direct indicator of business acumen.

I dislike Trump for many reasons, but this is not one of them.
