    Semantic arguments do not change the fact that he settled to release himself from legal liabilities, and the subsequent "self-dealing" from his own charity IS a crime by ANY definition.

    Who cares if it's his business or him paying the taxes? Uncle Sam is getting more than his fair share from Donald Trump. If he's illegally avoiding tax, then go after him, but there is no evidence of that.

    "Grover Norquist, the president of Americans for Tax Reform and a prominent Trump supporter, said in an interview that Mrs. Clinton’s line of attack was unfair.

    “It is a dirty trick of her to pull that,” Mr. Norquist said. “She knows damn well that people in that industry, housing and construction, lose millions of dollars or gain millions of dollars in a year,” based on a number of factors, sometimes outside the control of the developer.

    Lost in the debate is that Mr. Trump did not fail to pay taxes that he owed, Mr. Norquist said. “He didn’t owe any taxes.”

    In hindsight, Mr. Norquist said, Mr. Trump should have simply said, “I’ve paid every dollar in taxes I owed.” "

    What a load. Besides Beverly Hills and Manhattan, what districts are you talking about? And there are loads of Democrats that live in and suck off Republican districts.

    I agree with Norquist. Trump should take his advice.

    This article confirms my point: http://www.naturalnews.com/055502_New_York_Times_Donald_Trump_federal_taxes.html

    New York Times earns "F" in finance
    In essence, the NYT and the entire lunatic flock of leftist sheeple in America think that all business owners should pay taxes even when they lose money. Only a bunch of financially retarded leftists could even fathom such a ridiculous idea, yet it's the foundation of the NYT story that's been making the rounds all day. The other assumption in that story is that taking legally allowed business deductions that are written into the IRS tax code is somehow immoral, as if "good" people just volunteer the maximum amount of money possible to be confiscated by Washington and wasted on truly dumb-as-dirt government spending programs that waste hundreds of billions of dollars a year.

    At the same time, the NYT and the entire fake media establishment (CNN, Washington Post, MSNBC, etc.) has deliberately failed to mention the more than $1 billion that Donald Trump's various businesses have paid over the last two decades in payroll taxes, property taxes, inventory taxes, import taxes, unemployment wage taxes, earned interest taxes and all the other categories of tax money that the federal government extracts from every business owner in America.

    Hillary Clinton has never worked an honest day in her life, and she's still collecting money by peddling government favors to foreign billionaires.

    By the way, it also turns out that Hillary Clinton used the exact same tax reduction technique as Donald Trump to deduct $700,000 from her 2015 tax returns. You can view the official PDF here. Look at line 15, "Net long-term capital gain (or loss)." It shows a $699,540 claimed loss deduction by Hillary Clinton.

    I am so confused. Trump's mantra, which is parroted by his legions of toilet sniffers, is that when it comes to his business and him, they are not the same. For instance, when somebody tries to point out his 4 bankruptcies, he claims he has never filed bankruptcy, That was his business. Now, you want to pretend that his business does not pay taxes, but he does? The whole pot kettle thing right back at you.

    A few of Trumps businesses have failed out of hundreds, big deal. His businesses pay tax every year and he pays personal income tax when he draws more income than he can deduct. Are you envious?

    That you fail to grasp the clear point is a good indicator of a failed public education.

    Trump and his businesses have paid more tax than Hillary ever will in her life. I stand by my point. What's your point?

    I made my point, which you fail to grasp, though it is painfully clear. Try again.

    Clinton's released their tax returns for the past 14 years and they have payed millions in taxes. Trump, tax dodging mugwump that he is, refuses to release his. I wonder why? Lol. Trumps foundation has been served with a cease and desist order for operating his so called charitable foundation without complying with the regulations. His phony "charitable foundation" is also being investigated for using donations for his own personal use. You guys are really a (*)(*)(*)(*)ing riot for attacking the Clinton's with unfounded rumors and silly accusations when your candidate is a first rate film flan scumbag of the highest order.

    Hillary defines "pay to play." She is a prostitute for Wall Street, Big Pharma, and countless foreign entities.
