Elections has consequences, Dems now threatening to burn down the senate and add seats to counter these confirmations, can be a reality as well. Would that be constitutionally correct as well?

Trump avoided paying taxes for years, largely because his business empire reported losing more money than it made, report says

https://www.washingtonpost.com/?utm..._campaign=wp_news_alert_revere&location=alert

"creative accounting" comes to mind.

This man does not have an honest bone in his anatomy.
and from another source:

Trump avoided taxes for years, NYT reports. When confronted about the claims, he lashed out.

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/do...eging-years-tax-n1241220?cid=eml_nbn_20200927

Tax evasion is one thing.........but his lashing out is so unbecoming a person of his elected position Fact is that behaviour is decidedly JUVENILE and PETULANT.

Wait until you read the New York Times article, which deals with Trump's questionable accounting pracrices in lengthy detail:

Thanks Girth. BBC is reporting on this article (NYT) at the moment. An "expert" says he sees no smoking gun......at the moment .. Trump tries to sell himself as a good manager...........and yet his taxes info indicates he is NOT........so how can he be trusted to deal with the US massive economy??? He Can't. He won't get competent staff as most competent ethical staff would be a threat to him and would be fired .(or rightly refuse to work for him)

BTW: Good for NYT. Well done. Good timing too ;-) Will it make a difference?? No t to the Trumpian die hard.

No surprise: DJT is a faux business man, faux leader, faux potus and faux manager. ergo one of the biggest con men known to the world. He is delusional enough to believe his own cons.......(faux and he projects FAKE onto anyone he hates.)

Why wasn’t Trump charged years ago?

Is it just me, or is Trump unhealthy? I know he likes his orange makeup, but he is legitimately starting to look like he is adding more makeup to mask some kind of physical illness (aside from the Adderall addiction).

The debate is less than 48 hours away. I have no idea about how Biden will fare against him, but it should be interesting.
Trump is not healthy . He is overweight, and is looking bloated in his face. ( facial edema) His color is not good. He is also showing signs of being stressed out.

re: debate: Trump will do his personal attacks . What I am hoping for is that Biden IGNORES the attacks......and sticks to policy and replying to the question. Trump will do his damnedest to drag Biden into a personal fight. He is a bully and will use bully tactics. Biden HAS to say above that.

New York Times claims to have Trumps taxes and say he paid no taxes in 10 of the last 15 years.

In 2016, the year he was elected and bragging he did not pay taxes, he paid $750.

The first year of his term he also paid $750

Predictably he is claiming it is fake news which is weird because it actually proves he was telling the truth. That must make him angry.

Remember that wall Trump was going to build, and Mexico was going to pay for? Well he managed to divert Billions to that project, and look at how it is turning out:

https://twitter.com/60Minutes/status/1310362465058906118

How is the hell did this man get so far in life, without going to jail?
His many lawyers. He pushes things right to the "legal edge"......

Wonder where all that money for the wall went. He must feel like a kid in the candy store . and makes sure he has a loyal group of lawyer to find ways to deal with his actors. Money is all that matters to him........along with the power it gives him. Most knew what he was and elected him anyway. That speaks to the current mindset and culture . Values like integrity seem outdated in the current atmosphere.There is a deterioration happening right in front of our eyes.
In a bizarre way , it is captivating to observe.
