The rubes don't care.Trump Declared In Presidential Debate He Shut Down Chinese Bank Account. He Didn't.
The Trump Organization also collected millions in income from more than a dozen foreign nations while Trump was president, according to his tax returns.uk.yahoo.com
"Donald Trump insisted in response to a question during a 2020 presidential debate with Joe Biden that he closed down his bank account in China before his first campaign. But six years of Trump’s tax records released Friday reveal that wasn’t true."
He still had accounts until at least 2017.
"Trump, who had accounts in a number of countries and also collected income from more than a dozen foreign nations while in office, paid more in taxes in 2020 to the Chinese government than he did in American federal income tax that year, his returns revealed."
And he paid more tax to China than federal income tax in the US.... for whatever that's worth.
The New York Times reported, and get this, rightly, that Trump paid $750 in Federal Income Tax in 2016.
"Trump also lied a month earlier to then-Fox News commentator Chris Wallace, who pointedly asked him during the first presidential debate in 2020 if he paid only $750 in federal income taxes in 2016 and 2017,"
Trump's response was "Trump angrily responded — twice — that he had paid “millions of dollars.”"
Lies, and more lies, because, I'd guess, he didn't think he'd get caught, or hoped to put it off for some much time that it wouldn't matter. Well, I guess he never thought he'd be running in 2024.
They'll find an excuse to celebrate it.
