NY Times publishes Trump's tax returns

[mhughes0021]

I just want some clarification....do i just need a daughter to write off $760k in taxes. Or do i need a russian spy wife too?

 

[sggatecl]

Not really the core of my position, or even its fringe.

You never really took a position on Trump, you know, topic of the thread. You just started droning on and on about taxes and whether or not people have to pay them. I had to fill in the blanks.

What you need is better writers.

I look at the bigger image.

You just need to have *enough* money to hire tax consultants and attorneys to set up shell companies and tax shelters for you, and then you can deduct pretty much whatever you want.

while you do that, working class Trump supporters will nod and drool that avoiding paying taxes makes you "smart" and claim that's what they would do too, but they're paid hourly or salaried, and the government automatically takes a cut up front, so tax avoidance isn't really quite as feasible... plus they didn't have wealthy, real estate developer fathers that were members of the Brooklyn Democratic machine that put them in touch with a legion of unscrupulous tax attorneys in Manhattan to help them dodge taxes (and the draft... and securities laws... and federal and state labor laws... and help pay whores hush money and abortion money... and... )

Dont forget Russian Money, Deutsche Banks and International Money Laundering charges. I still think the Russian spy wife has something to do with it....no one has proven me wrong.

No, dodging taxes using shell companies, bogus deductions & write-offs, and off-shore tax shelters is common among America's wealthiest individuals and corporations.

Another way they privatize their profits and socialize their losses.

I mean, I get it: Trump blows. But don't lose the forest for the trees here

Who knows could be, right? Could be AOC is secretly a reptile. I don?t think anyone has definitely proven she?s not.

If that?s the case, I can think of a lot better things she could do with that reptilian tongue of hers then screaming all the crazy shit she does.

Now for a little stroll down memory lane, back to about third grade, concerning logic, reason and the fundamentals of argumentation.

Nobody hast to prove you wrong - the burden of proof is on the one who is making the assertion.

Except it?s provably wrong that the wife is not Russian ? it doesn?t mean she?s not a spy for Russia, but she?s not Russian. It?s a fact that she?s from Slovenia.

Well, get in there and change that shit then.

I?m barely clinging to the bottom rung of upper middle class, that shit don?t do me no good at all.

Bring Warren Buffet, LeBron James and Bill Gates Junior along with you, I think they?re all rich social justice warriors themselves.

That's quite an assertion. Prove it.

Pretty universally recognized fundamental tenet of logic..

A search engine search will bring lots of sites that validate that it is in fact university accepted.

As I said, most of us learn this at right around third grade.

You will notice, that I did not dispute the possibility of the claim, consistent with the reasoning in the link I provided.

Does burden of proof apply to presidential debates, or is it more of a 3rd grade thing?

Presidential debates and third grade things are pretty much the same.
