keelansgrandad 6,679 Posted December 30, 2022 So he said his tax returns were under audit by the IRS. Who say the weren't. But they didn't say it at the time. So obviously there is someone high up in that organisation who was protecting him. And of course it was yet another lie from him at the time. The returns reveal the disappearance of virtually all of his overseas activities. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Iwans Big Toe 312 Posted December 30, 2022 I can't wait to see Obama's tax return or Biden's or Nancy Pelosi's (failing that just the cctv at the Pelosi home for the last 2 years, I'm sure Paul has nothing to hide). It will be great. The precedent has been set. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes it's true, Trump paid no tax while in office, but like your beloved BBC you fail to mention that Trump refused to take his presidential salary taking just 1 dollar in wages, the minimum allowed. Neither do you or the BBC mention while he was in office he signed over his companies by law, because a president is not allowed to run a business while in office. As I stated in my previous post, think - Do some research before flapping those Equus caballus gums. Edited December 30, 2022 by Hook's-Walk-Canary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As I stated in my previous post, think - Do some research before flapping those Equus caballus gums. Looking forward to the many lawsuits and investigations for fraud that Trump is facing. Not the least of which concerns how Trump persistently channelled taxpayer's money into his own businesses by holding government conferences and forcing staff to stay at his hotels, charged to the nation at inflated prices. (https://www.forbes.com/sites/danielcassady/2020/09/17/trump-organization-reportedly-charged-us-government-over-11-million-for-luxury-hotel-stays/?sh=5ae3ea2a5541). I guess you don't need to take the presidential salary when you can make a hell of a lot more fleecing the US taxpayer with such a fraud. Then of course there were the multi-millions Trump was able to pump into his hotels from special interest groups who believed staying at the president's hotels would see them garner favours from the orange one (https://therealdeal.com/2020/10/10/how-trumps-hotels-and-resorts-raked-in-millions-from-special-interest-groups/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2021/10/08/trump-hotel-millions-foreign-governments/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2021/10/08/trump-hotel-millions-foreign-governments/ https://eu.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2019/09/04/trump-presidency-spawns-conflicts-of-interest-personal-profits-column/2197263001/ https://www.forbes.com/sites/joewalsh/2020/10/27/report-us-government-paid-over-25-million-to-trumps-businesses/?sh=74218c941a62 And just to correct you, he didn't "sign over" his businesses. Just like every president before him his business interests were held in trust for the duration of his term of office. He remained the owner, and as many articles have claimed (including many more than the ones I have linked) certainly benefited financially from that ownership by exploiting his position as president. As you rightly say, always a good idea to do a bit of research before you open your trap. Also a good idea to check your insults, especially when you think you're clever enough to resort to Latin to make them. Best not to confuse Equus Caballus with a Tabanidae, you'll find the saddle wouldn't fit. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

benchwarmer 624 Posted January 4, 2023 (edited) In the latest example of "You couldn't make it up" the Republicans who now have control of the House, cannot appoint a Speaker because they're too divided to vote for one. After three votes their proposed candidate Kevin McCarthy failed to get a majority because the MAGAs wouldn't back him. It has even been suggested that the only practical solution might be a conservative Democrat that both parties could vote for, but this is probably a threat to get the MAGAs to toe the line. This hasn't happened for 100 years and only twice in US history. Edited January 4, 2023 by benchwarmer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now they are irretrievably divided and stuck with deplorables like Bobert, Gaetz and MTG. Trump wasn't sure but now he is (just like his pro life-pro abortion stance). As long as he can be rude to Chao and Pelosi he is happy. What a cnut. In the hours immediately after Mr McCarthy became the first Speaker-designate from a majority party to fail to win on the first vote in a full century, Mr Trump expressed some caution about his prospects, telling NBC News: “We’ll see what happens”. But on Wednesday morning, the twice-impeached ex-president took to his Truth Social platform to offer a full-throated defence of the man who helped him retain political relevance by visiting him at his Florida home after he’d left the White House in disgrace. He alluded to “great conversations” among Republicans the night after the failed votes and said it was time for “all of our great Republican House members” to cast their votes for Mr McCarthy. He added an all-capital letters exhortation to “close the deal” and “take the victory” so Republicans could watch the former Democratic Speaker, Nancy Pelosi, “fly back home to a very broken California” even though Ms Pelosi is remaining in Congress to represent the San Francisco district that has elected her every two years since 1987. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Either the MAGAs think he's sold out, or their attention span is so minimal that in his absence from Twitter they've forgotten he exists.
