    he isn’t. They are public. He filed for 2019 in July of this year and have been publicly available. Go to them, and to Sec 8 to see the liabilities he has. He’s filed these every year since 2016

    Allegedly the NYT has both, but as I pointed out earlier, C-corps can carry charitable donations over for 5 years if they so desire. There are also things that are not necessarily the right way to do it but happens like instead of donating cash you "sponsor" something and deduct it as an advertising expense instead of a donation.

    Anyway, like I said earlier, he may or may not be telling the truth, but not comporting in 1 year does not prove he is or isn't.

    Yeah that Trump doesn't have one....if you looked at his 2016 Fin Disclosure forms you would have known back then too.

    That was a request. Not even a contract. No proof that it ever amounted to anything. And there was never any revenue, so even if there was entitlement, 10% of 0 is 0.

    Joe didn't ask for anything, Joe didn't receive anything.

    Trump wouldn't make a donation unless he could get a tax deduction out of it. He doesn't do anything out of kindness, he doesn't have it in him. There has to be something in it for him, always.

    He refuses to say. He owes someone upwards of $420 million, but we the people don't get to know to whom or what he may be indebted.

    No for two reasons...one it wasn't held in his name, but the company he worked for, and two it's been closed. It was set up by Trump Internatioanl Hotel Management for a time period in which the company was looking into expanding, and in fact did in some areas in Southeast Asia, the business. It's been closed though for years.

    1. And the IRS was telling the truth that there is no problem with him publishing tax documents that are under audit. Ask yourself: what sort of businessman gets audited every year, as Trump claims he is? Answer: habitual tax cheats.

    2. Democrats did not write the tax code all by themselves.

    3. All wealthy people can afford to hire top notch accountants. Back when I ran my own business, a consulting company of one, I had a CPA who had formerly worked for the IRS. Nothing exceptional there.

    4. Under what circumstances? What was the bill about? Please cite that bill with a link, thanks.

    It isn't about being advised. It's about the fact that he's the president, and it is important that we the people know his financial status. If he didn't want to disclose, he shouldn't have run for office.

    Bernie isn't wealthy, and this is about Trump.

    That's a whole lot of assumption. And who is this "Don" who dropped them off?
