Hillary Clinton Has Also Used The Very Same Tax Loopholes.

I agree with his tactic. It's better to take a loss then to have a corrupt government get it.

he would be a dumb- azs if he did not use legal a write-off to mitigate a lower tax bill.But he is not a dumb-ass, so he legally reduced his tax bill. Simple.

How about releasing the letter from the IRS that says you're under audit??

I said earlier he depreciated assets that he sold to the public company he's managing.
he literally dumped his futures taxes on his investors.
criminal if intent is proven.

And you wouldn't use that loophole if you could? Please!!! #TrumpALLDAY
