    You believe wrong their is NOTHING to say Dirty Donald paid $5 Million in any recent year. Maybe if he would release his tax return for over twenty years as the Biden's and Hillary did, we could find out.

    Trump's personal lawyer says there's little chance Trump wasn't doing something illegal...

    Let me know when you get the equivalent for Amazon...

    I said two recent years, which were carried forward resulting in little declared income. Does it bother you Big Tech pays very little in taxes?

    Actually liberals complain about Amazon's tax burden a lot. This is one of Sander's favorite things to complain about. It plays well into their argument that the game is rigged against the poor and working classes. You just never listened.

    I'm talking about the Democratic Party in general, not Sanders whose campaign the Democrats coordinated against to crash.

    Bernie is an important part of the democratic party and is the unofficial leader of the far-left coalition. Below is Biden complaining about it too:

    The amazon tax thing is a favorite talking point by the dems. I'm actually really surprised a conservative made a thread about it to be honest.

    Accelerated depreciation when taxes are lower makes no sense
