And on CNN’s “State of the Union,” Giuliani told host Jake Tapper, “You are
ignoring completely the fiduciary obligation that he has to all the people
around him to run his business at the lowest possible expense.” But that
argument is a strained one. Fiduciary duty generally refers to the duty of care
public company officials owe to their shareholders to operate a business to
maximize shareholder value. Trump reportedly took the loss on his personal
income tax returns so fiduciary duty to investors would likely not apply.
Suggesting it would apply would mean that Trump's family members could sue him
for not using losses to offset his tax burden, a far-fetched scenario.

Assuming the activity was legal, Sanders said, the report is proof of a
"corrupt tax system."

Lots of information is available about Trump's tax and business chicanery.
It's not just a matter of the government getting only what it's entitled to.
You wouldn't know any of this, of course, because you don't like reading
things unfavorable to Trump; you'd much prefer to read material that smears
Hillary.
The Clinton Foundation does not look like a tax dodge, BTW.

So how to you handle your Canadian tax returns, Anne? Do you just give away
money or make sure the government only gets what they are entitled to? You of
anyone on FFL should have a good sense of how business people deal with taxes
(regardless of political persuasion). The question should be how much did
Trump's companies pay in taxes as well as what is really going on with the
Clinton Foundation as it looks like a tax dodge too.
