    Trump extracted one lump sum of $15M from that account. I haven't heard how many years that covers.

    But, as long as the dollar amount is the big deal to you, what's the dollar amount cutoff point where Trump should resist accusing Biden (who holds NO office) of being soft on China?

    True.

    Also, not part of his disclosure of personal assets.

    You are assuming he has paid taxes. I asked for proof.

    Yep that’s a president who pretends to be patriotic. Send more money to the Chinese government than he does to Uncle Sam.

    Yeah but at least he was truthful for once when he says he pays taxes. I put a gold star on the calendar to mark the occasion.

    One of his companies PAID corporate taxes TO China where it was operating. Joe Biden was PAID BY the Chinese Communist Party. Try making the intellectual distinction.

    LOL, but he hugs the flag. Wait, that's cheap, paying taxes, on the other hand, actually costs him.

    Joe did business with China after he was no longer VP. Trump got 17.5 million dumped in his Chinese bank account, and cashed 15 million of it, while he was President.

    How do you know? This goes back to 2015 what does it have to do with anything?

    "The account does not show up on Trump’s public financial disclosures as it is not a personal asset, but instead controlled by Trump International Hotels Management.

    A lawyer for the Trump Organization told the Times that the account was opened to pay taxes after opening an office in China to “explore the potential for hotel deals in Asia.”

    No deals, or other business activities, were ever made, the lawyer said. "

    It wasn't hidden on his tax returns. It was hidden on his public disclosures.

    If it was only opened to pay taxes, then why did it RECEIVE 17.5 million (more than the previous 5 years combined) after he became president? And why did he cash out almost all of that money?

    It wasn't a personal asset and had been dormant since 2015. What public disclosure in 2015?

    It wasn't "dormant." Especially considering it received 17.5 million in 2017, 15 million of which Trump cashed . . . sorry, but that cash is a personal asset.

    It made more in 2017 (in one lump sum) than it had in the previous 5 years combined. And Trump cashed most of that money. The "taxes" excuse is bunk.
