Five major takeaways from Trump's tax returns:
😡He paid NO income taxes in 10 of past 15 years. In 2016 and 2017, he paid only $750. Even in our broken tax system where the wealthiest never pay their fair share, the average person in top .001% paid about $25 million.
Takeaway #2 from Trump's tax returns:
🤯He personally owes a lot of people ALOT of money--hundreds of millions of dollars--that has to be paid up in the next four years. That makes him a prime target for anyone who wants something--including dictators or other foreign enemies.
Takeaway #3 from Trump's tax returns:
😡He wants YOU--American taxpayers--to give him a $70+ million dollar REFUND. The IRS is auditing him, but don't forget he is president and controls the IRS.
Takeaway #4 from Trump's tax returns:
🤯He claimed a $70,000 tax deduction for his haircuts. Really. While you were struggling to pay for insulin or a cancer treatment, he claimed a DEDUCTION of $70,000 for haircuts.
Takeaway #5 from Trump's tax returns:
😡He made huge $$$ from being president. Trump DC hotel, where lobbyists stay to curry favor, went from $3.7 million/monthly receipts in Dec. '16 to $6 million/month by May '18. Mar-a-Lago fees grew 10X, letting him take out $26 million.
