Somehow the New York Times has obtained 18 years of Trump's tax returns just in time for the first debate. It shows that in 11 of those 18 years Trump paid exactly zero in taxes, and in 2016 and 2017 he only paid $750. The Times doesn't have records beyond 2017. It also shows activity that is certainly unethical and probably illegal, such as deducting $70,000 haircuts and a salary to his daughter for being an employee at one of his companies and then paying her again for being a consultant to the same company she worked for. They also show too many conflicts of interest to mention between his job as president and his job as a businessman. It also shows he has suffered huge losses In nearly all his investments except for the ones that he doesn't control. So much for him being a brilliant businessman. And he owes a vast amount of money to a lot of different people, so much so that if he wasn't president he would never get even a low level security clearance in 1 million years. I don't think this sort of underhanded behavior will surprise anybody who is not a Trump zombie but this confirmation that there is one set of laws for the super rich and another set for everybody else may not play well with Trump's uneducated blue collar base.
