Michael Cohen: Trump Tax Returns Show He Could Be 'Facing A Potential Bankruptcy' | Katy Tur | MSNBC
“With all of this going on with the President I’m still baffle on how he became President…
Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large numbers…
We might need to mandate critical thinking courses in k-12 curriculum…
White Supremacy! That’s about as short as I can make that answer for you!
Majority rules?
@that wasn’t.chicken Minority rules*
That’s how the Senate and Electoral College is gamed. The Senate “majority” represent 15 million fewer people than the Senate “minority”. And the impeached president got 3 million fewer votes, but won skewed electorates.
Lol….RUSSIA…lol
“Fake news….”, Trump may have been facing bankruptcy before he was elected and spent the last four years embezzling as much as he could from the office.
I have no doubt that embezzlement happed.
@Ginger Nightmare Habitual lying. Violations of the Emoluments Clauses of the Constitution. Tax avoidance. Tax cheating. Tax evasion. $6.9M of taxpayers and donors money went to Trump Org and he paid only $750 in taxes, claiming he continues to lose masses amounts of investment cash. Paid Ms. Ivanka, his daughter, $747,622 for consulting fees even though she is already in the family business and deducted it as a business expense.
He has procured large loans over the past 20 years, yet he has been running at a loss. The likely way he got the loans would have involved misrepresenting his fiscal position to the lenders.
These returns will be a road map to fraud and bank fraud charges. It’s either that or tax evasion, one or other or both.
Get an education already!
exactly! but the money stolen is tax payer funds OUR MONEY! Lock him UP
Cohen knows trump inside and out knows all his tricks an tells, describes him to a “T” .
@Dan H The economy was rocking before COVID genius. Learn the facts before you post.
@tnbrfller he is a chronic pathological liar , even way worse than a pig with his greed and daily drama 🐖 🤣 🙄
Fake news
@spaxxed Yeah right , The moon is made of green cheese too , delivered by little gray men from outer space…
@Robert Buchwald The proof is right there to hear with your own ears. Try opening your mind and check it out, it’s easy enough to do because there’s a whole reality that would boggle your mind.
Stop giving him respect by calling him Mr trump, he doesn’t give the Americans respect. Call him what he is animal
Richard Barry Most Democrats are, they just don’t know it? Sure, if that helps you sleep at night. 😆
R. T. Andrews by voting this democrat party in. The ultimate stupidity.
Jesse Beebe Says the person that voted for a game show host!
President dump
Mr. Impeached president. How bout that?
None of this will change anything with Trump supporters. They are stuck on stupid.
P Pumpkin no, Trump handed over his buildings to cover losses as part of bankruptcy proceedings.
I guess that makes Biden a Trump fan .
@Nathan Garnett-Consulting 👏👏👏👏🌊🌊🌊🌊
@Brett S. huh he was a public servant for decades. If he paid millions in taxes in 2017 how did he make 10s of millions ? Obama’s net worth went up 30 times while he was pres. Trump’s was cut in half . Wow and who is the criminal and crook ?
@P Pumpkin oh, GFYOURSELF. Trump deflates his properties to take a loss and not pay taxes. Then inflates his properties worth to get bank loans. They go up and down millions of dollars every year. That’s fraud.
Trump said he donated his salary to charity, prove it by showing me your income tax return.
@Daniel Carr He would do it in a heartbeat.
He doesn’t deserve to get paid , he deserves to get fired.
He has, catch up!
Look I loathe Trump. But the truth is he does donate his presidential income to some rather dubious charities. Politifact has an article on that. https://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/promises/trumpometer/promise/1341/take-no-salary/
tax write-off………paid to his own charity
Cohen has been sounding this alarm for some time now. Not only is Prump not wealthy, but he is deeply in debt. Not a surprise for anyone with a functioning brain.
For the more reason why he wants to stay in office is that we ,the taxpayers, can pay his debts….I’m so sick of him
Also so he avoids prison time or paying foreign crooks their money. I almost feel sorry for him.
Also his loans are coming due. Don’t you think that being president gives him the opportunity to make these banks an offer they can’t refuse.
Of course he knows everything, that’s why he’s lying 🤥
@Michael Reid Joe Biden has gotten a government check for the last 47 years. Although the other day he said he was in the Senate 180 years ago? Government money outside of the kickbacks from China Russia in the Ukraine which made him and his son Hunter multi-millionaires
His loans are with Russia! That’s the leverage Putin has over the orange bungling buffoon.
Agree.. That is why I called him a true traitor. He cannot be in the oval office for another 4 years. He will continue to belittle our US Intelligence for any suggesting that Russia is attacking our troops and country in any way. Trumpid is forever in debt to Putin and his oligarchs. Stupid no brain “disgusting” Trump supporters, none of them are true patriots as them claimed themselves to be, wearing American flags and hats.
Heaven knows.
Trump’s front for Putin’s corruptly acquired wealth hidden in USA hence POTUS is lick’g his palms.
I like Presidents who pay their taxes, don’t lie and aren’t indebted to foreign dictators.
Lynn Potter I actually am starting to feel sorry for you poor misinformed cultists. It is going to be so hard for you when you can no longer deny reality. Good luck I truly hope you recover.
So your not a Joe “china” Biden fan.
@Felisha Gordon lol, you are aware Joe Biden voted for the tax laws that Trump took advantage of?
Bye felicia…
Bill Scott no I like my reality steeped in reality.
I don’t like people that spy and enrich their family through foreign relations , and that brag about using the leverage of their office to hold aid , or that don’t know where they are half the time, or that smell little kids ,not that got hairy legs , or that call God the thing . Wow I could go for days . Joke Hiden for nursing home 2020
Trump makes Michael Cohen seem like a stand up guy.
Bird’s of a feather flock together…. Cohen is a rat,democrats are rats….
@Can’t Get Right Stick with this guy.
https://youtu.be/p00fxoDpaIo
Can’t Get Right you have aptly named yourself haven’t you?
“And the first question goes to Mr Biden. Can Mr Trump borrow $5”
Lol
LOLO!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
HAHA
He was calling crooked Hilary, he is the big one crook! Lock him up !
America says “Trump you’re fired!”
And remember, there are people who will be waiting for their money, clean or not 😬 I strongly believe he’s been doing business with crooked people and these revelations put a target on his back. Trump’s current and gloomy options are: go to prison, be murdered (he owes ‘dirty’ money), escape the country to avoid serving time (which makes him a flight risk), or commit suicide.
Feds will get Trump on his taxes.. like they did Al Capon.
Roland Mousaa 😁
trump will pardon himself, or get pence to pardon him
Sweet justice for We the People!!!
No he’s gonna skate right throw this watch
@LaBambaC Good thing, New York State crimes can’t be pardoned by the fed’s.
The buck stops with him, he signed, he is responsible.
LOL remember when Trump said “I’m Very Rich” and he was going to self-fund his campaign? Trump is a joke. Vote! Vote! Vote!
@Lisa Muller Hillary’s not President troll.
@miss rayelyn Thank God she’s not!
I remember that he did! Get with the program!
Trump is one of the false prophets that the Bible warned us about!
Razz Matazz do you want proof when it happens it’s all around you. We are a free country they can’t shut business down and enforce bs masks that don’t work. If it worked wouldn’t you wear one in the flu season?the proof is right in front of you.
Razz Matazz they are the same and they don’t want you to know that. You will give up your rights for safety. You are being lied to. Look into you tube X22Report it can help explain. New stuff every day.
Ben Pierce, Amen, Amen, Amen
@Jesse Beebe You’re the one casually throwing terms (i.e. socialism and communism) around, not me.
Mask wearing is to try to limit the spread of the coronavirus, when people must come together face-to-face, not an attempt to do any more or any less. Businesses were closed – some have now reopened – to try to limit the spread of the virus. Flus aren’t near as deadly as this virus. I’ve had the flu before and recovered. I don’t want to take the same chance with this virus.
Democrats don’t believe in the Bible let alone God…. they hate people that believe in God specially Christians
Biden paid over 3 million in taxes while this president paid under 800 dollars in taxes. Who cares about their country? whose the patriot?
….. Read further into it. Trump paid over 5 million. This isn’t gonna go anywhere again
@Clark Kent Lay off the disinfectants.
Clark Kent lay off the Clorox Superman
All of Trump’s riches are no doubt in a shell company, offshore.
Or, on the other hand, he might be swimming in an ocean of debt.
Absolutely right! All the kickbacks he is getting from Wall Street and contractors are safe in Switzerland.
Joe Biden has gotten a government check for 47 ears. Although he had a brain fart on live television and said that he was in the Senate 180 years ago.. government money and then of course the big kick bags came from China Ukraine and Russia which made Joe and his son Hunter multi-millionaires
