Official LRC President Donald J Trump Thread

It is really insane how criminal he is.

We never see a story like..."Turns out Donald Trump overpaid his taxes and is owed a $413 million dollar refund."

I still submit that Trump will have his comeuppance, but I no longer will be surprised if he doesn't. Watching Lindsey Graham switch from a harsh critic of Trump to his biggest butt kisser and listening to Jeff Flake say that if he weren't retiring he would not have been able to request the FBI investigation just tells me that there is absolutely no integrity left anywhere in politics. I did have my doubt of course, but when even the few seeming lights of reason aren't really that, then you can't count on logic winning out.

ah deplorables. Not even math is within their reach. Good luck, MAGAs.

But Hillary was at 78% in October.

And Trump drew the Ace on the river. Y’all still acting like 2016 was normal. The winner lost the popular vote by 2% and won 3 states by a TOTAL of less than 78,000 votes....and 2 of those states haven’t turned Red since Reagan.

Clinton isn’t running in 2020....at least I hope not so the Clinton-hate vote won’t be there and assuming a woman doesn’t run the woman-hate vote also won’t be there.

The Russia collusion story has blown up in the Democrats face, families separated at the border has blown up in the Democrats face, the Stormy Daniels story has blown up in the Democrats face, the Kavanaugh story has blown up in the Democrats face, so guess what they're back to talking about? Trump's taxes from the 1990's.

The Blue Wave story will also blow up in the Democrats face. The smell of desperation is thick in the air. This is getting fun.

"The Democrats need 23 seats at a minimum to claim the House back. Only once since WWII have the Republicans ever lost more than 23 seats in their first midterm- and it was 26 seats in 1982. Based on these odds, the Democrats would need something historic to take back the House."

Demorats take the House for sure.

The midterms will be like Election Night 2016. Another disappointment for the libs. No Blue Wave.

definitely going to put this one in my calendar to bump on election night.

Trump Engaged in Suspect Tax Schemes as He Reaped Riches From His Father

The president has long sold himself as a self-made billionaire, but a Times investigation found that he received at least $413 million in today’s dollars from his father’s real estate empire, much of it through illegal tax dodges in the 1990s.

https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2018/10/02/us/politics/donald-trump-tax-schemes-fred-trump.html?mtrref=undefined

The latest hit job by the NY Times on Trump's taxes missed one essential point. Trump and his family have been audited repeatedly through the years. If "blatant fraud" existed, wouldn't that army of IRS agents found something? This is just more BS to get the libs triggered again.

It's not a hit job - it's journalism. Sorry if you are unfamiliar with it.

The sad answer is that the US tax system is largely an honor system. People with no honor, like our president, can and will cheat it, over and over again.

So that is your answer.

and don't even try to claim Trump's taxes are being audited or have been audited. There is zero proof of an audit, last time I checked.

Trump and his lawyer said they were. Trump lies about everything.

Shame on you for believing him.

I guess the NY Times knows more about tax law than Trump's tax attorneys and the IRS combined. The endless loop. They’re back on taxes again, then comes Russia collusion, Avenatti again- the media's desperate mission to get rid of Trump is so obvious.

i understand that you don't believe in the concept of knowledge and experts. But anyway, the Times used tax experts to decipher the illegal tax moves by the trump family. Not journalists.

I wonder what the payment back of those taxes plus penalties would be? He's in such debt already. I'm not sure he has a net worth above zero. In sane for someone who inherited so much money. One of he worst businessmen ever, but the KING SCAM ARTIST.

The IRS was weaponized under Obama and went after conservative groups. They could not and did not find fault with Trump's returns.

Idiot. Those "con"servative groups were filed as fake non-profits. They have been used as dark money funding for republicans, and to hide the real donors--Russians.

When 538 had the Dems at 34% chance to gain majority in the senate they had:

The Dem probably flipping NV an AZ and Heitkamp probably keeping the Dem seat in ND.

If all of their lead picks held, the Dems would take control.

Now they have Heitkamp behind in ND.

They also have Cruz easily beating Beto in TX but I don’t know about that.

And TN could still flip from red to blue.

The whole control of the senate may come down to Heitkamp vs Cramer in North Dakota.

Heitkamp voted to confirm Gorsuch, going against her fellow Democrats.

Now there is a vote on Kavanaugh. She expected to vote no and is in a red state. Her no vote could cost her the election and Dem control of the senate.

A yes for her may put Kavanaugh on the bench but get her the win and Dems control of the senate.

I think the senate is still up for grabs and we have no idea what first time or irregular voters may show up.

That's your first mistake. You follow the left biased Nate Silver who completely blew it in 2016. The Senate is not up for grabs, that is wishful thinking for which you rely on 538 for confirmation bias. Look the polls that use "Likely Voters" instead of a "Registered Voters" model. Likely voter models have historically been more accurate over the years. You have a decent shot of taking the House, but I would not guarantee that.

If you want guarantees, go to Flagpole. But we all know what happens when he makes election guarantees...
