Trump Floored By MASSIVE Sales Tax Avoidance Scandal, Campaign Goes Silent

[Care4all]

If going back to 1986 is what the Crooked Hillary folks want to do, let's talk about Crooked Hillary making $100,000 playing the cattle futures market with a little help from insiders. CPAs get graduate degrees in taxation so they get hired by folks who to minimizing taxes. It is totally legal. Insider trading like Crooked Hillary did is not legal.

the fact that Clinton never took how you said, a little helpp from their friends ... here's the real question you should be asking yourself ... when it deals with taxes being paid why does trump try and cheat the system

Trump is under constant IRS audit and has been for many years. Trump lost almost a billion last year and obeys US Tax Law or he would be locked up.

So if Trump lives personally very 'high on the hog' while losing yuuge amounts yearly, what does this bode for America if he becomes CIC? Since he clearly is an egoist that needs to be surrounded by sycophants, as evidenced by this threat of purges of the military and journalistic sort, will Republicans stop caterwauling about the national debt? Will America stiff it's creditors? And if all the 'smart' people tiptoe thru a loophole, who will pick up the tabs?

Who says he loses money yearly? He bounced back after being 900m in the hole. We are 20 trillion in the hole so we need someone with that kind of working knowledge and determination.

What normal people consider a huge success, liberals see failure. To them, government is a fat hog we nurse off of and must be fed with other people's money. That's the extent of their business acumen.

<<Who says he loses money yearly? He bounced back after being 900m in the hole. We are 20 trillion in the hole so we need someone with that kind of working knowledge and determination.>> Iceweasel, he bounced back because with the claimed losses, he didn't have to pay Fed taxes on about 50 mill a year for the next 18 years. And since his income was probably not up to 50 mil per year...zip. He earned yuuge amounts, just not 50 mil, ergo..no Fed taxes and live high on said hog. So if a person lives in golden towers while enjoying all the rights and privileges and protections of a generous nation to the nth degree, say again which of us thinks the government is a fat hog to nurse from.

the US Govt hasn't used BANKRUPTCY to dissolve their debts, and they never should.

Donald got his debts forgiven or reduced by the courts with the other people he owed money to, not getting it back....

IF the us govt ever did that we would all be living in pure, unadulterated, hell on earth....and this nation would be a third world nation...

trump is unfit to be President.

The HRC campaign should be running ads that show Trump dodging paying taxes, and next, his sons killing lions in Africa.

'These are the family values of the Republican party'.

That's because the US Government has China to bail-out the government with more money. Wait till they decide to call on that debt, until then .... What favors is our government providing China (trade deals) in exchange for their efforts?. Donald Trump does not have business debt in the Trillions, unlike our government which doubled down on its national debt in EIGHT YEARS under one administration. Hillary had 30 years in the government to (at least) show she is willing to fight to change all that, but she didn't.

Any time you try to make Trump look bad, you only manage to make the democrats look worse :

You're full of shit. Bill had a Republican congress to deal with and, unlike obama, was more interested in popularity so he went along with the program for the most part. had to be drug kicking and screaming sometimes, like with welfare reform.

Nope! Not so about Bubba. However the Republican superiority complex is amusing to watch. Your dig against Bill is akin to Newt's knuckle-biting over the President's disgusting behavior.

Trump Floored By MASSIVE Sales Tax Avoidance Scandal, Campaign Goes Silent

Along with the New York Times discovery that Trump lost nearly $1 billion in 1995, it was also discovered that Donald Trump is known for evading taxes — even sales taxes. Forbes dug up a criminal case from 1986 wherein Donald Trump was evading New York state sales tax in collusion with a Bulgari jewelry store. The high-end jewelry store and Donald Trump seemed to have worked out a deal where Trump could avoid paying sales tax to the state and the city.

Trump would enter the store at the Fifth Avenue location in Manhattan to purchase a piece for a wife or girlfriend such as an expensive watch or necklace. Under normal circumstances, Bulgari would charge the customer sales tax, which would then be later paid to state coffers.

But Trump and Bulgari had a deal. As a way to illegally avoid paying the sales tax, normally a pretty large sum on expensive jewelry, Trump would “ask” the store to ship the jewelry to an out-of-state address so that sales tax would not be collected.

Many online vendors sell out-of-state and are not required to collect or pay state sales tax unless they have a store or business location in the state where the item is delivered. But this was in 1986 before internet commerce and even today, state budgets are suffering from the practice.

What Forbes discovered is that the store would ship an empty box to the out-of-state address, and Trump and his current arm candy would walk out of the store with the jewelry.

New York tax collectors caught up to Bulgari and Trump and a number of others using this scam to cheat the State of New York out of rightful revenue, and Trump was called to testify against the store to protect himself against charges. According to The Los Angeles Times, Trump purchased over $65,000 worth of jewelry using this method, which is approximately $142,000 in 2016 dollars.

And the New York Sales tax scam isn’t the only tax evasion in Donald Trump’s past. Trump also stiffed the state of Florida for property taxes on his Mar-a-Lago estate. According to POLITICO reporter Frank Cerabino, Trump purchased the Palm Beach, Florida, estate from cereal empire heiress Marjorie Merriweather Post for the low, low price of $7.5 million. County appraisers, however, assessed the value of the property at $11.5 million when he bought it. This is a common practice, and new property owners are expected to pay property tax on the assessed value after the time of sale. But Donald Trump decided to cheat the county, and pay property taxes at the sales price instead of the actual value. Trump eventually wheedled out of paying the higher property taxes by giving up his development rights on some of the land to the National Trust for Historic Preservation, saving him from paying for the “highest and best use” standard normally used by tax assessors.

So if Trump lives personally very 'high on the hog' while losing yuuge amounts yearly, what does this bode for America if he becomes CIC? Since he clearly is an egoist that needs to be surrounded by sycophants, as evidenced by this threat of purges of the military and journalistic sort, will Republicans stop caterwauling about the national debt? Will America stiff it's creditors? And if all the 'smart' people tiptoe thru a loophole, who will pick up the tabs?

Who says he loses money yearly? He bounced back after being 900m in the hole. We are 20 trillion in the hole so we need someone with that kind of working knowledge and determination.

What normal people consider a huge success, liberals see failure. To them, government is a fat hog we nurse off of and must be fed with other people's money. That's the extent of their business acumen.

Any time you try to make Trump look bad, you only manage to make the democrats look worse :

I know, I know. You think it was Republicans who insisted on debt reduction, forcing the President to their will. But when they shut down the government, we saw whose will prevailed.

Yes we sure did. Here are the facts of what Clinton, and the Republicans led by Newt Gingrich, were seeking in National Deficit reduction prior to the government shut down.

Clinton, who offered his own 10-year budget-balancing plan, says he will VETO the seven-year plan being prepared by the Republican Congress. Panetta said the two sides should not spend time "exchanging letters or posturing in public."
"We could request that you show us your legislative plan for meeting each one of (Clinton's) principles before we even sit down to talk. We both know . . . this would only lead to gridlock."



PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON'S SPEECH FOLLOWING THE 1995 GOVERNMENT SHUT DOWN

We know big Government does not have all the answers. We know there's not a program for every problem. We know, and we have worked to give the American people a smaller, less bureaucratic Government in Washington. And we have to give the American people one that lives within its means. The era of big Government is over.

Though differences remain among us which are significant, the combined total of the proposed savings that are common to both plans is more than enough, using the numbers from your Congressional Budget Office to balance the budget in seven years and to provide a modest tax cut.

I say to those who are on welfare, and especially to those who have been trapped on welfare for a long time: For too long our welfare system has undermined the values of family and work, instead of supporting them. The Congress and I are near agreement on sweeping welfare reform. We agree on time limits, tough work requirements, and the toughest possible child support enforcement


Note: I have linked sources to back up my post, there lies the difference.
