Trump's billion dollar loss in one year is being defended here as a good thing.

[longknife]

Question to you Trump defenders...

Does that mean that if the opposite had happened, if he had MADE a billion dollars that year,

that would be a bad thing?

which is it?

I wonder if the New York Times will report that it didn't pay taxes in 2014?

It's not a 'good' thing, it's just a legal thing. If it was legal, it shouldn't even be a story.
Oooh, a business wrote off losses!.. .

These are his personal tax forms. Not his corporate tax forms.

The write offs, according to what I saw, were for failed casinos and airlines. How that then ended up reflected on his personals, I don't know as I haven't seen them, but if it was legal, it was legal. If it wasn't that's another matter entirely.

It's not being argued it was illegal.

How about reading the story?

Why isn't it getting through these are personal tax forms. Not corporate tax forms?

Actually, what worries me to no end is that if Hillary can rig the election in such a way as to get herself elected, that would set Bill up running free in the White House whenever some little middle school or younger age group of little girls get to visit the White House on a field trip. That should keep some parents awake at night.

Trump's base believes Trump's business skills are what will bring jobs to the country.

He's lost a billions dollars.

He thinks not paying taxes is "smart".

He stiffs his workers.

He stiffs companies that he hires.

He owes hundreds of millions to hostile foreign countries.

He funnels money through his uncertified Charity Foundation to avoid paying taxes.

He has six bankruptcies.

After what Bush and the GOP did to the country, is it any surprise that the Republican base thinks these are signs of a good businessman? Not to me.

Your understanding of the machinations of business is laughable.

Oh pray tell.....share with us how those are awesome business skills.

You mean it "will report"...something Drumpf doesn't want to do?

I did read the story. If it's not illegal then there should be no argument.

My point to your comment is that the write offs originated from business losses, so the businesses taking write offs is germaine.

So you made a point that's utterly irrelevant and suggest I read the article. Lol.

Amazon.com lost BIG money for YEARS, YEAR after YEAR, before it turned a profit.

I guess that makes Jeff Bezos the dumbest CEO in the history of historical histories.

Holy crap. I've seen a lot of aggressively ignorant partisan memes here, but THIS one is UP there.

You are outdoing yourself today. Congrats.

Does Mac think that Jeff Bezos claimed the Amazon losses on his personal return?

Hmmmmmmm?
