Trump Engaged in Suspect Tax Schemes as He Reaped Riches From His Father
The president has long sold himself as a self-made billionaire, but a Times investigation found that he received at least $413 million in today’s dollars from his father’s real estate empire, much of it through tax dodges in the 1990s.

Has this been FACT CHECKED?

And by "tax dodge" he means legal tax avoidance.
Do you take any deductions off what you pay in income taxes Gwad? -

How dare kids take it.
How dare kids invest it.
How dare kids enjoy being rich.
How dare kids avoid paying taxes.
How dare kids feel good about themselves.
How dare kids become POTUS. -
What emerges from this body of evidence is a financial biography of the 45th president fundamentally at odds with the story Mr. Trump has sold in his books, his TV shows and his political life. In Mr. Trump’s version of how he got rich, he was the master dealmaker who broke free of his father’s “tiny” outer-borough operation and parlayed a single $1 million loan from his father (“I had to pay him back with interest!”) into a $10 billion empire that would slap the Trump name on hotels, high-rises, casinos, airlines and golf courses the world over. In Mr. Trump’s version, it was always his guts and gumption that overcame setbacks. Fred Trump was simply a cheerleader.

I got 15,000 from my dad's estate and promptly lost it in a Hawaii land deal
So I'm impressed with what Trump has done -

Did I miss something in the sequence? Help me here - or should I just walk the safety up right now?

The IRS should look into it.

Not so much "suspect tax schemes" as they were just good old tax fraud.

Being past the statute of limitations means it can’t be prosecuted, not that it wasn’t felonious. What did you learn at Mall Cop School?Sledog said:Liberal media slinging mud 24/7

Jeezus, why does anyone utilize the NYT as a source anymore. They have been caught twisting the truth and out right lying so many times over the last 3 years.

Yes and not being prosecuted over those years also means that there was no offense. Its not like the NYT and the City were big huge fans of Trumps prior to his Presidential run.HHusky said:

Most wealthy families buy 3+ million dollars of chips at their kid’s casino and walk off with them in a bag? Most wealthy families create a phony distribution company with jacked up prices to gift their kids some dough? Most wealthy families pay their three year olds six figure salaries?WestlinnDuck said:Yeah. The "suspect" tax planning that most wealthy family businesses were using and that passed on audit.
This was all audited, Gasbag? Got a link?
Interesting. Sounds like most wealthy families should be in prison. -

There's entire departments of very large accounting and legal firms whose sole purpose is to draw up diagrams and execution plans and various legal entities to take advantage of tax law, both domestically and internationally.
Are you really this fucking walk.safety.up that you don't understand the real world?!? We're not talking W-2/1099 income and tax ramifications here. Christ.
Even HondoFS gets this - I think he does anyway. His firm likely has a taxdodgermitigation expert.
