OMG! Finally! And he’s paid zilch, of course. https://twitter.com/susannecraig/status/1310325440020713472
$750 bucks! That’s it! It doesn’t surprise me, but what a motherfucker. https://twitter.com/_ethangrey/status/1310328556292055041?s=21
This isn’t just about $, or being a liar & a cheat. He is deeply compromised, making him a massive security threat. It’s not a surprise, but a confirmation. https://twitter.com/angrierwhstaff/status/1310329737060003840?s=21
Another reason this matters is because it should outrage average people that they’ve paid far more in taxes than some rich asshole. https://twitter.com/waltshaub/status/1310329169570680836?s=21
This is almost assuredly intentionally inflated costs to grift more $ from taxpayers.
Meanwhile...may Mary Trump’s current lawsuit reveal more of this: https://twitter.com/drvox/status/1310324274280894467?s=21
HE DEDUCTED $70,000 TO STYLE THAT DEAD FERRET ON HIS HEAD!
$100k for Ivanka’s hair & makeup—plus she got massive “consulting fees” to her family’s own companies. BURN THEM TO THE GROUND.
He’s deeply compromised by who-knows how many foreign countries! https://twitter.com/davidfrum/status/1310332302069846017?s=21
The corrupt ass is facing a $100mil IRS debt (+ penalties & interest) by 2022. If he is POTUS*, he will strong-arm the IRS, guaranteed. Dems should have been far more aggressive about his finances & emoluments. Mueller should’ve dug into his $$ too.
Because he can’t get away with as much in other countries. We should be just as outraged that we have a messed up tax system that allows people like him to get away with this shit. https://twitter.com/matthewamiller/status/1310334640788570112?s=21
Deeply, DEEPLY compromised. And broke as shit. https://twitter.com/kaitlancollins/status/1310334570362023937?s=21
Biden better have an ad like this TONIGHT. https://twitter.com/public_citizen/status/1310334850965090305?s=21
Yet another angle for a Biden ad: https://twitter.com/jimsciutto/status/1310335486251106304?s=21
Constant campaigning is necessary income for a broke-ass Trump. https://twitter.com/svdate/status/1310334270142058496?s=21
There’s MANY reasons Tump doesn’t want this info out. Criminal charges are a biggie. https://twitter.com/zeddary/status/1310336854416388097?s=21
Another Biden-ad-worthy take: https://twitter.com/akilahobviously/status/1310337068938084353?s=21
We have a LOT of noise to make & work to do. https://twitter.com/williamcson/status/1310333774660599808?s=21
The 2016 campaign was just another grift. He had no real intention of being POTUS, though his narcissism I’m sure allowed him to believe he was fully capable & deserving of the WH. https://twitter.com/teri_kanefield/status/1310338382225047552?s=21
So many Biden ads writing themselves. https://twitter.com/neal_katyal/status/1310337576730005504?s=21
I don’t believe prison is the solution for practically anyone, but...Lock him up. https://twitter.com/mrbromwich/status/1310341201795710976?s=21
Be outraged. Demand change & fairness. https://twitter.com/tyleraking/status/1310341692138991617?s=21
Biden can come at him from SO MANY angles on this. https://twitter.com/jillfilipovic/status/1310341734262505475?s=21
We need answers on this, specifically, ASAP. https://twitter.com/crampell/status/1310342304050413569?s=21
Exactly this
.These are just the $$ he’s declared to the govt. Trust that he hid far more of his shady financial transactions. https://twitter.com/grudging1/status/1310348744236425217?s=21

It’s going to be hard for Trump to bat this down, when there’s so many ways for it to be framed that make him look bad. https://twitter.com/public_citizen/status/1310337291236397056?s=21
Yes! I was at many of these marches. They have to continue! https://twitter.com/behindyourback/status/1310337968087937027?s=21
Undocumented immigrants pay more in taxes than Trump.
I noticed this too. https://twitter.com/daveregrets/status/1310355900905922560?s=21
Exponentially more. https://twitter.com/rjszczerba/status/1310351309267251205?s=21
It ain’t all wrong. https://twitter.com/adamdavidson/status/1310356383397806080?s=21
We are lucky things haven’t gone even more horribly sideways, with someone this compromised in the WH. https://twitter.com/skinnerpm/status/1310356922563006464?s=21
It may not sway his cultish base, but it definitely will turn some voters off. https://twitter.com/v_williamson/status/1310340714946068481?s=21
God, there’s another one. https://twitter.com/realdonaldtrump/status/172772609627394049?s=21

WaPo’s story on this out now, from a great reporter who’s been following Trump’s $$ for years, @Fahrenthold . https://twitter.com/eilperin/status/1310363828895584256?s=21
We need answers, now! (I also have long wanted to know why Neal in Ways & Means has refused to push for Trump’s taxes when he’s had every legal right to get them.) https://twitter.com/arthurdelaneyhp/status/1310366290046070786?s=21
Absolute parasite. https://twitter.com/alexyudelson/status/1310366998396887040?s=21
Another one!! With the fake stack of paper for a claim of owing $0. https://twitter.com/realdonaldtrump/status/702894623761498112?s=21
Annnnd another one. “Do as I say, not as I do.” https://twitter.com/realdonaldtrump/status/190866856624668672?s=21
And this—guess he reused this pic in 2016, even though he was definitely signing totally different tax returns. https://twitter.com/realdonaldtrump/status/654706635663773696?s=21
The fuckin nerve of Neal: https://twitter.com/reprichardneal/status/1310371420137021440?s=21
Michael Cohen on MSNBC right now saying he paid about $3 million in taxes in a year that Trump paid $750. And that if he went to jail for tax evasion, Trump should be sentenced for hundreds of years’ more prison time for tax evasion. I don’t love the guy, but he has a point.
THIS should be the Biden ad! Teachers shelling out $ from their own pockets to buy basic classroom supplies, because rich assholes like Trump aren’t paying into the pool that funds schools. https://twitter.com/scout_finch/status/1310373505452650498?s=21
Bottom line: we have an unchanged criminal in the WH, desperate to get a 2nd term so that he avoids charges. It’s past time we push past that ridiculous DOJ/OLC policy that a seated POTUS can’t be indicted. https://twitter.com/grudging1/status/1310375291093688321?s=21
We need to know who he’s indebted to, who knows about his debts, & who may be using it to their advantage. We ALSO have to consider that he’ll have to continue to take $ from shady entities who can further compromise him. Huge security risk. https://twitter.com/russchoma/status/1310372361980522496?s=21
Didn’t Trump say he was going to lend his own campaign a boatload of $$?
Almost forgot about this.
(Much like the military story of a few weeks ago, this tax fraud story isn’t necessarily surprising, but it confirms patterns & suspicions, & jogs memories on so many similar stories Trump hoped we’d forgotten.) https://twitter.com/laurawalkerkc/status/1310373836907569153?s=21

Every so often, when Trump’s in deep shit in the news, I think about how Mitch McConnell & the GOP could’ve gotten rid of him in the impeachment, could’ve disavowed him much earlier & called for him to step down, could’ve encouraged he be primaried. But now, they’re stuck w him.
This is awful—& I hope he gets the care he needs. But it’s worth noting that this is suspicious timing from someone who knows lots about the Trump campaign & Trump $.

This thread is just what I was taking about earlier: 1 of the beneficial side-effects of big stories like today’s NYT tax piece is that it gets people talking about all of his old, related scandals that had gotten memory-holed by the constant news cycle. https://twitter.com/clarajeffery/status/1310401470928306177?s=21

Oh definitely. He didn’t ACTUALLY spend $70,000 on his hair, he inflated it for his taxes. Same with so many other deductions, I’m sure. https://twitter.com/binarybits/status/1310389886957105152?s=21
You’d think lots of Trump’s people might relate right now to Brad freaking out, since they may also be freaked out about being caught up in criminal charges. (I’m speculating that may have been Brad’s motive to try & hurt himself.) Instead, they pull this: https://twitter.com/swin24/status/1310392274241703936?s=21

Wow, this NYT tax story really does kind of tie in to the pandemic failures, & how Trump’s bad business sense & bad presidential* leadership end up screwing him financially AND electorally, even though his only focuses have been to make $ & get re-elected. https://twitter.com/jenszalai/status/1310415077477158912?s=21
