    Another Trump lie. Just how many of his claims of charitable donations are in fact true. I think he claims he donates his Presidential pay to charity, but I'll bet it cost the US taxpayer far more so he could play golf.

    What a louse.

    Is this the anonymously, illegally, unverified "Trump Tax Return", that the New York Times is 100% good with using for a source, but they won't discuss a laptop and emails that are completely verified at this time, because they destroy China Joe Biden?

    Most likely... Certainly nothing out there to counteract it, including your meager deflection attempt...

    Fortunately it's OK to lie to the media and the American people...

    However, the publication added, Trump could have personally donated funds without ever reporting them on his taxes.

    OMFG, that's funny.... Trump miss a tax deduction? There's a better chance that dogs miss a chance to lick their balls...

    Yes, the New York Times did lie. They went with Trump-Russia Collusion, which did not exist, for 3 years and even got a phony Pulitzer for a story that was not true. Now they have more anonymous sources to attack Trump and this time from a document, if real, was illegally obtained and shared? How the hell do they have an ethical issue with reporting on Hunter Biden's laptop if this is story meets their standards? Hunter's emails are verified by a real human being. His laptop is verified by his signature. National Security confirms the lap top is not related to Russia in any way. The New York Times is not a news source. It's a propaganda source.

    If it's in the NYT it's probably bovine scat and not worthy of mention.

    Not all charity can be written off on taxes.. which .. come to think of it.. would make it much more charitable.

    With all the money that Trump rolls around in, I imagine that it’s easy to forget a few measly bucks. Here, have some fun coupons:

    Are you saying that Trump's 2009 return has never been disclosed by him?

    What does reporting on this have to do with their re-writing of history?

    I wonder.

    You know what "truth" is in Russian don't you?

    Good Lord. Those goons sanctioned and paid for pure fiction to publish it as if it was history. The 1619 Project is pure crap.

    He uses Air Force One to fly to all his campaign rally's, which costs taxpayers $180.118 per hour to operate, and I have seen nor heard nothing to say his campaign is reimbursing taxpayers????

    Let's recap what we've learned:

    1. Trump was telling the truth about the audits
    2. Democrats tax policies under which he filed benefit the rich
    3. Trump hired people smart enough to give him all the benefits the tax code Democrats supported, by law
    4. A bill signed by Obama into law allowed business owners to request refunds on prior 4 years

    Congratulations on showing Trump once again following the laws Democrats wrote.
