Re: When is Enough ,Enough?
He is the biggest con artist of all time. Right now he is conning millions of Americans and a handful of WP’s into believing he is doing it for them. Its horrible and hysterical all in one.

Re: When is Enough ,Enough?
I am no expert on taxes so I don't really have much to say about the topic yet, but here is an article about the NYT article if you would like a different perspective.
https://www.breitbart.com/economy/20...n-is-nonsense/ And yes, I know it's Breitbart so many of you probably won't read it for that alone. But it was written by John Carney who was previously with the WSJ before that and has written for CNBC, etc. Not even saying this proves Trump didn't do anything wrong, just a different take. That's all. Please don't kill me in the morning.

Ex-Watergate Prosecutor Says 'No Question' Trump And Ivanka Could Both Face Prison
https://www.yahoo.com/huffpost/donal...041055432.html A former federal prosecutor during the Watergate proceedings that brought down President Richard Nixon says new tax revelations about President Donald Trump could ultimately send him to prison. “No question about it,” Nick Akerman said Monday on CNN. “And his daughter could go to jail, too.” Both the president and his oldest daughter, Ivanka Trump, who also serves as a White House adviser, are named in the New York Times report detailing the schemes that allowed Donald Trump to avoid taxes for much of the past decade and a half. “Tax evasion is a five-year felony,” said Akerman, who was an assistant special Watergate prosecutor investigated Nixon’s taxes. “It’s a pretty serious crime, and the more money that’s stolen, the longer you go to jail for.” Trump has denied any wrongdoing. However, he has also refused to publicly disclose his tax returns, as has been customary for presidential candidates for nearly half a century. Akerman said the Times report details “a whole series of activities that could qualify as tax fraud, not tax avoidance.” Avoidance, he said, is merely taking advantage of the tax code in legal ways to maximize deductions. Fraud, on the other hand, involves lying about income and deductions. He pointed specifically to consultant fees paid by Donald Trump to Ivanka Trump. Since Ivanka Trump was already an employee of the Trump Organization, Akerman said, there was “no legitimate reason” for those payments. He speculated the two could have been shifting the money around to avoid paying taxes on it. That, he said, could lead to an ominous development for the president should he leave office in January. “The only thing that’s saving him at this point is the Department of Justice’s guideline that says you can’t indict a sitting president,” Akerman said. “Once he’s no longer a sitting president, he is subject to being indicted.”

chico add these guys to the list! USA TODAY 1,600 former Justice Department lawyers accuse Barr of using DOJ to help Trump in election Kristine Phillips and Kevin Johnson, USA TODAY Thu, October 1, 2020, 3:49 PM EDT WASHINGTON – Former Justice Department attorneys expressed concerns Thursday that Attorney General William Barr is using the power of the agency to help President Donald Trump win reelection, citing statements Barr had made about mail-in ballots and the politically fraught inquiry into the Russia investigation. "We fear that Attorney General Barr intends to use the DOJ's vast law enforcement powers to undermine our most fundamental democratic value: free and fair elections," according to an open letter signed by about 1,600 former Justice Department employees. Barr has echoed the president's attacks on mail-in ballots as more states have allowed voting by mail due to the coronavirus pandemic. "People are trying to change the rules to this, to this methodology – which, as a matter of logic, is very open to fraud and coercion – is reckless and dangerous and people are playing with fire," the attorney general said in an interview with CNN last month. Trump emphasizes violence in cities: Are his 'law and order' tactics working? Last week, the Justice Department announced an investigation into nine discarded mail-in ballots reportedly recovered from a county elections office in northeast Pennsylvania. Seven of the nine ballots had been cast for the president, who has repeatedly claimed, without evidence, that massive fraud involving mail-in ballots is underway. The announcement, which did not suggest the type of "out-of-control" fraud the president has claimed, was "premature and improper" and gave the White House and the Trump campaign a talking point to discredit mail-in voting, the letter said.

The amount of debt he has should be a big concern to everyone.

Re: When is Enough ,Enough?
Trump owes almost 400 million in the next two years. Personally guaranteed.
To who? Because if you think any bank was offering him that much after all the bankruptcies in the 90's, without a cosigner, you are crazy. My money is his Deutsche bank loans are backed by people out of Russia.

Re: When is Enough ,Enough?
Plenty of employers out there won't give someone a job based on their credit check and debt, meanwhile we have this jackass with the most important job in the country massively in debt.
