Trump seems very proud of the political minefield he picked to fill the seat

Implicit admission Trump will lose.


Though the guy probably wants Trump to lose anyway, so a bit of wishful-thinking on his part while still trying to play nice with the GOP in a post-Trump era.

I'll never get why people think his taxes matter. Do they think Trump filled out any of the forms? He paid lawyers/accountants to do it in accordance with the law. If anyone gets in trouble, it will be them.

You're not absolved of complicity when your tax writer signs for you.  They are held for fraud, and so is the person they are signing for.

No. I would have to pay whatever money was actually owed, but the accountant would be the one on the hook for any charges or interest. Or at least any reputable accountant would take responsibility for any charges. If they didn't pay, I could sue them for negligence.

You can call me stupid, but it doesn't make me wrong.

Not really news when he made the claim himself.

https://www.politico.com/story/2016/06/trump-king-of-debt-224642

Quote from: like, a really smart guy
“I’m the king of debt. I’m great with debt. Nobody knows debt better than me,” Trump told Norah O’Donnell in an interview that aired on “CBS This Morning.” “I’ve made a fortune by using debt, and if things don’t work out I renegotiate the debt. I mean, that’s a smart thing, not a stupid thing.”

The release of info on Trump's taxes leaves libertarians torn between opposing Trump because he might have secretly been poor and in debt and supporting him because he might have cheated on his taxes.

The part about him getting 70 million refunded by the IRS is pretty genius and just makes you depressed at how pathetic our tax system is.

Quote
Until 2009, those coupons could be used to wipe away taxes going back only two years. But that November, the window was more than doubled by a little-noticed provision in a bill Mr. Obama signed as part of the Great Recession recovery effort. Now business owners could request full refunds of taxes paid in the prior four years, and 50 percent of those from the year before that.

His total federal income tax refund would eventually grow to $70.1 million, plus $2,733,184 in interest. He also received $21.2 million in state and local refunds, which often piggyback on federal filings.

Testifying before Congress in February 2019, the president’s estranged personal lawyer, Mr. Cohen, recalled Mr. Trump’s showing him a huge check from the U.S. Treasury some years earlier and musing “that he could not believe how stupid the government was for giving someone like him that much money back.”
