Trump Tax Figures Show Over $1 Billion in Business Losses

[Carnal_Flower]

They saw him on the Apprentice. How could the TV be wrong?

Of course it's old news but that's not the point.

The point is that 90% of 45's supporters never read any of his books let alone any books at all and they didn't know about his failures.

Right. His perceived success as a business tycoon is what Trump ran on. It was his only “qualification”. I’m sure one could dig up threads in this very forum where folks pointed to Trump’s supposed business acumen as the deciding factor in supporting him. It was the only area that Trump had real standings in any poll, take that away and those numbers shift.

I never knew the extent of his incompetence and fraud. Youjust think so what hes a billionaire now so he had a few stumbles. Im sure a lot of people thought the casinos were theworst of it.

Um, nope. Everything he did for at least ten years was exactly like the casinos. The whole shtick about him being a "real estate" genius is 100% false.

Its all a fake image. You know, like his Wall.

But that is what he is good at. Selling a lie. Thats what he is.

There is zero chance he morphed into a building mogul overnight. His money then came from a combination of crime, dirty mpney and selling his Apprentice "Brand."

Bit by bit the actual truth is coming out.

It's weird that CNN & MSNBC thinks that this is breaking news. It was all over the news years ago. Dave Letterman had a top ten list about it. Hell, Trump even wrote a book about it, "The Art of the Comeback".

Yep, “a small loan of a million dollars.”

“I am a successful businessman, that's why I can run this country better than anyone else. I'll make you rich because I'm rich.“


I didn’t watch Letterman.

That he was bleeding money in the "Morning in America" mid-80s, when he "wrote" that first book that put him on the map as the Greatest Businessman Of Our Time, is definitely news.





Of course, there are still institutions/individuals that are loaning him money, and we don't know who they are or how much or what they might be in position to demand in return.

You'd think that would be a matter of bipartisan concern.

you'd think, wouldn't you? it seems most repubs are so busy keeping their gaze firmly fixed on anything but so they don't have to acknowledge they've seen it

They have stated several times that “they see a lot of money pouring in from Russia.”

What a shock, HisArpy didn't come back after he was proven wrong.

I guess he'll just post in other threads and pretend it didn't happen.

It's hilarious to watch him shrivel up and move on from his fuck-ups. He fucks up so much that he is gonna run outta threads to hide in.

The other day he said he was going to send his local sheriff to Detroit to arrest cowslinger. This dope is a lawyer?

What a moron.

There's no way he could be a lawyer considering how bad his reading comprehension is.

 

[Aglaopheme]

What a moron.

Not to mention all of the cases where he was wrong as far as the law goes.

 

[Aglaopheme]

Speaking of morons.

...

Donald had a knack for picking losing real estate projects. They all failed just like his bankrupt casinos. He's a total fraud.

His casinos were losing money in boom times. I think the losses were partly, maybe largely, due to his business model of taking money out of them...bleed his businesses dry, declare bankruptcy, leave others with losses, pay pennies on the dollar and walk away with the cash.

Not just a lawyer, a judge.

uh huh - makes you blink, doesn't it?
still, there have been some really shitty judges and lawyers around so it's a remote possibility... it's head-shaking stuff, whichever way you look at it.

comes across more as someone who once worked for a brief while in a minor position in a court but who sees that as being almost as good as a real judge and in his mind he makes better decisions, so it's reaaaaallllllllllllly sorta truthful to call himself that.

*sighs*

There's a long Lit tradition of would be Lit lawyers espousing some rather novel legal ideas.

• You might recall "CallMeKevin" declaring that ONLY the US Supreme Court could declare a law unconstitutional, which would come as quite a surprise to US district judges, not to mention appellate judges.
  
• You might recall "Colonel Hogan" breathlessly declaring that state tax returns were technically federal tax returns if you squinted really really hard enough. Side note: Trump's lawyers in NY are getting thumped on this very issue at the moment.
  
• And of course, "Karen Kraft" informing us that the landmark parody law Hustler v. Falwell, upheld 8-0 by the US Supreme Court, was nonetheless unconstitutional because "her" feelings were hurt.

Timmeh J. Shithawk, esquire, is just the latest in a long line of derpslingers.

 

[HisArpy]

Okay moron, I gave you opportunity to be something other than a moron. It isn't about my interpretation, it's about what was actually said.

It started with Jomar saying this:


It wasn't about "Trump tax figures show..." to "It's not about Trump's tax data information" as you asserted.

Then A_J gave the following idiotic reply:



To which I replied asking for examples:



Here's when your moronic ass jumped into the conversation with your preposterous ascription in the form of a question that I was somehow saying that Dems were good:



Now, how fucking stupid are you that you can't follow a conversation that you are participating in?

Maybe you should spend more time reading and trying to understand what is actually being said before you jump in to deflect criticism away from the lying, cheating asshole-in-chief.

At least give a try for a change.

I gave him every opportunity to go back and reread the exchange.

He preferred to continue to engage in stupidity.

What a shock, HisArpy didn't come back after he was proven wrong.

I guess he'll just post in other threads and pretend it didn't happen.

Fist of all, dudly, I work. Second of all, I choose what/when/where I reply.

But, be that as it may, you're also just flat wrong. As usual. Instead of actually following along, you twist your own words in order to make them fit your later rewriting of history.

THE THREAD is about "trump's tax figures". Go look at it, it's right at the top of every page.

The fact that YOU choose to disregard that, and instead concentrate on something else, doesn't change that fact. When you inserted your "something else" into the conversation, that's when YOU FUCKED UP. From there, you decided to make it worse by proclaiming that your version of reality is the correct one and that everyone who disagrees with you isn't just wrong, they're subhuman and worthy only of your slurs and slanders.

That entire attitude is why you get no respect here.

You were and are wrong. What you do is rag on Trump for doing LEGAL THINGS, because you deem him lesser than you on the basis of your political ideology, and try to twist those LEGAL THINGS into an appearance of criminal or anti-social behavior.

You're fucked in the head. Those who support your mentally retarded rantings are just as bad.

But then you already know this. NO ONE can be as consistently fucked up as you appear to be and not know it. Even single-celled amoebas can figure that out.

^ You can't make this shit up.

 

[HisArpy]

You can't make me shut up.

We know. Trust me, we know.

Wow, that's some hissy fit you just threw.

Do you really think you can gaslight me, or anyone else for that matter?

It's all there in black and white - the entire progression of quotes showing that you're just a moron with no reading comprehension.

You can whine, you can cry, you can stamp your feet and you can interject bizarre defenses of Trump but it doesn't matter - I proved my point - that you're a moron who can't understand what he reads.

You just made a complete fool of yourself, despite me giving you multiple chances to simply go back and read it again.

Bwahahahahaha!!!!

Dumbass.

 

[zipman]

It's not like we all didn't see this coming a mile a way.

He's such a tool it's almost too easy.

But I loved the part about the thread titles being on each page.

I would say that maybe he will try actually reading what people write next time, but we all know that he won't change. So the only thing left to do is mock the moron.

He was a failed businessman who lies about his wealth,
while at the same time so successful that he could lose billions?
