  1. Pro Publica got ahold of Trump's tax documents and is claiming major fraud
  2. The problem with this is credibility. Leftists have done nothing but lie and mis-represent everything so why would this be different?
  3. They are claiming Trump had two sets of books, one for investors and one for the IRS. The one for the IRS had increased expenses and less gains. The one for the public had decreased expenses and more gains. However, upon going over this myself, there are ways all of it can be explained without fraud, such as changing insurance policies, and the timing of the changes reflected differently in the different books, based on when they were due, AND, all instances pro-publica pointed out have approximate time frames with nothing pinned down at all. In such situations, if you want to lie about something there are always going to be discrepancies due to timing factors with windows spanning years.
  4.  
  5. My take:
  6. This is just another leftist scam that won't go anywhere. They are no doubt going to cause a stink and push for "impeachment" yet again, but in court it will all be straightened out and die. But they'll get their show yet ANOTHER TIME. Annoying.
  7. Anyone can take any set of documents and find ways to make it appear there are discrepancies by simply mis-representing what is in them and taking things out of context, as well as comparing years that don't match up, and time frames that obscure reality. I did not even realize these documents were to be released yet, I thought it was all in appeal still. Whatever. This is not likely to go anywhere. Pro Publica is the last venue I'd trust to be accurate with such things anyway.
