crixus Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Trump claims that his $421 million debt is “tiny.” He apparently owes more than twice that amount (per article from just last month). https://news.yahoo.com/trump-claims-421-million-debt-171014166.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spaztecs Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 For his sake, he better hope his Stop the Steal grift is an ATM. Personally, I hope he is buried in Civil Suits, Moar Bankruptcy problems, and Criminal cases. I want his news making to be outside of the political arena. 2 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
soupslam1 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Once a president leaves office I could care less what happens in their life. It has no impact on me. 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I've seen better Trump bashing on this board. Btw, his top line debt number doesn't mean one damn thing without knowing a lot of other stuff. If you have three rental houses, with 30% LTV, you have a lot less debt than someone who owns 30 rentals with 30% LTV. But you're also a lot less wealthy. 1 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NorCalCoug Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 It’s all relative... when you run up $4.5T in debt in 3.5 years, of course $421M is going to seem “tiny”. Either way, pretty sure he’s good for the $421M, and not sure why folks even care. Will this unhealthy obsession continue even when the man is out of office? 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

aztech Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 All questions will be answered when New York state is provided his tax returns next year. I don't believe a word Trump says about his debts, especially with his past bankruptcies. If he's as rich as he claims, he'd still be the Buffalo Bills owner today. Being able to grift as the president is very likely why he's trying to cling to office. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They really offer very little information Quote Link to post Share on other sites

A lot of them sounded pretty bogus. A tax return wouldn’t be very telling there either. The deduction is just a number on a form. The real data is in the CPAs workpapers and those belong to the CPA. A CPA will not give those up unless ordered to do so by a judge, who has reason to believe a crime was committed. The IRS can also ask for substantiation in an audit. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
