Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Why is Trump denying that he said not paying taxes makes him smart in the debate?

We all saw him say it, and an hour later, he denies he said it? It is all over the interweb.

So which is it? Does he think it makes him smart? Or not?

    Here he is, an hour after the debate, denying that he said not paying taxes "makes him smart".

    Are you in favor of Trump that thinks he is smart for not paying taxes?

    Or the Trump that tries to deny he said it, even though it is on tape?

    Actually, youtube is my source.

    Unless Trump will now try to claim that a vast media conspiracy edited those videos, even the one many of us saw live.

    Reality is, that's the crazy part Troomps like Race don't get. He's is there on film, and still won't admit what he said, even 2 hours later.

    Sociopath. Seriously.

    He totally doesn't pay any taxes. Should be a major scandal, but won't because the media doesn't ask the hard questions.

    So here's the hilarious thing. I was listening to Glenn Beck this morning (yes my first mistake). He is not a supporter of Trump but of course hates Hillary.

    So he did have a good point tho. He was saying that part of what makes Trump different is he is using things traditionally thought of as disqualifying traits to a politician, as positives. He paid zero taxes, that makes him a genius. Instead of bankruptcy being bad, it's a positive because he knows how to use the rules to his advantage.

    Well that was a thought until right after the debate he doesn't realize he agreed he didn't pay any taxes.

    The only evidence we have that Trump didn't pay taxes is Hillary's baseless speculation. Not unlike Reid's lie about Romney.

    That's why no one cares. HTH

    You also have the video of him saying that it makes him smart that he didn't pay them.

    Even if you don't believe the many news reports of his old tax returns.

    If no one cares, why did Trumpy feel the need to interrupt her?

    Trumpy could end this controversy but it helps him IMO.

    Pretty sure Trump has paid more in all types of taxes than you could ever dream of earning. But still.

    People don't want to pay taxes. Stay tuned for more on this developing story

    How much has Trump spent of his own money on his campaign? He's a fucktard for not biting the bullet, paying a decent percentage in federal income tax while releasing his return, all just to pander to the populace if nothing else. It would have been the cheapest source of good-will of the entire election.

    Shows he doesn't think ahead whatsoever. Every candidate should game their returns for at least two years.

    I saw some talking head saying polling shows 8% of voters care about Hillary's health. The only thing they care less about is Trump's taxes - 6%

    Other sources say different about both. Who the fuck knows but the election won't be decided on either as long as her meds are dialed in the rest of the way

    Last I checked, not paying federal income taxes isn't a crime if the businesses complied with the IRC.

    Bernie-Loving Socialist Vaginal Neophytes call that compliance a "major scandal."

    We'll be subsidizing these dependents forever.

    He should be taking this as an opportunity to explain why the tax code needs to be revised to a flat tax structure, and how the tax code fucks the standard wage earner.

    How much tax do you suppose was collected from the developer, GC, Subs, employees, suppliers, and vendors for a project like Trump Tower? Someone had to risk the capital and have the brains to get that built. One example among many.

    As we are told, the 47% may not pay income tax but they pay all sorts of other taxes. Goes for the rich as well.

    And we still only have the musings of a pathological liar like Hillary as "proof"

    This is why his income tax returns are all but meaningless

    Paying tax on overhead is not the same as paying tax on income. He's right that America's infrastructure is falling apart, but it will never be rebuilt if the wealthiest Americans aren't paying income tax.

    It's like revenge of the retards around here.

    The issue is, why did he say in the debate that it makes him smart that he paid no income tax, and then an hour later deny saying it?

    He can't make up his mind over an hour? ...is he smart for paying no taxes? Or is he smart for trying to deny saying what he is on video saying?

    Trump pays more in payroll taxes in one month than this board will pay in their lifetimes.

    R-E=NI. S-COGS=NP.

    Hope this helps.

    You must be new to the campaign. And how about a trigger warning next time you call me a retard. TIA
