Obama and Sanders paid less in taxes than Trump!
|
Rachel Maddow has the scoop. She tweeted it out in advance of her big show. Exposure at the highest levels of which politicians are paying taxes and which ones are not. Leave it to MSNBC and "The Rachel" for coming to Donald Trump's aide in an area where he has been unfairly maligned.
Apparently in the biggest scoop since that one thing about the Duck Dynasty cast, Rachel Maddow exposed the fact that Donald Trump paid 38 million in taxes in 2005. That's actually a 25% tax rate, and shows that he pays more in percent than either Barack Obama (19.5%) or Bernie Sanders (13.5%).
Maddow went on to talk about the hypocrisy of those politicians on the left who demand big Government, but seem unwilling to personally pay for it. She also attacked Hillary Clinton for making the false accusation during the campaign that Donald Trump had paid nothing in taxes.

Obama and Sanders paid less in taxes than Trump!
Another bullshit headline that the completely dishonest CH puts forth so his weak minded followers like rat and loretta feel big. Yes he paid 25% effective tax rate vs obama's 18% . BTW idiot, that was a rather surprisingly good amount he paid which makes me want to believe, if other years were similar....I would say he paid his fair share. JMO. But me thinks other years involved zero federal taxes which would really annoy me. That's why he's hiding like the child he is.
Here are Trump's major sources of income:
Interest income: $9 million
Business income: $42 million
Capital gains: $32 million
Rental income: $67 million
Miscellaneous: $2 million
Total: $152 million
After a writeoff of $103 million, his adjusted gross income clocked in at $49 million. His taxable income came in at $31 million and his tax bill for this was $5 million. That's a tax rate of about 3 percent. Bingo!!!
The Alternative Minimum Tax kicked in, which meant he had to pay $38 million in taxes. I guess it's no wonder that Trump doesn't think very highly of the Alternative Minimum Tax. For a whopping 28% rate.
I wish we had the schedules.
LOL.
I wish we had the schedules.

indeed. but maybe there's a cut n' paste out there that could help him understand it.
If you subscribe to the theory that Trump’s tax returns include all kinds of evidence of nefarious criminal activity… what has the Internal Revenue Service been doing all these years? They had time to target all of those small-time Tea Party groups seeking tax-exempt status, but they ignored the criminal mastermind who lives in a giant golden tower in the middle of Manhattan?
The new conventional wisdom this morning is that Trump or someone close to him mailed them to get the media on a wild goose chase, or to fool them into breathlessly touting a tax return that shows Trump obeying all appropriate tax laws and paying quite a bit of tax.
“Almost as if somebody selected the single year and the precise 2 pages that would do Trump least harm- and found a way to release only those,” says David Frum.
“The Trump camp released one positive tax return to distract from Russia hearings and the Trumpcare meltdown. That’s painfully obvious,” declares Joe Scarborough.
This is all entirely possible, but think about what had to happen here. Trump (or more likely, some associate with his blessing) anonymously mails copies of the pages to David Cay Johnston. He doesn’t know for certain that Johnston will go to Maddow. Johnston’s an experienced reporter, and could have looked at the tax return (from twelve years ago!) and concluded he had a story, but not a particularly shocking or scandalous one. It’s Trump’s “luck” that Maddow chose the treat the tax return with the wildest hype since Geraldo Rivera opened up Al Capone’s vault.

ho-lee fucking shit.
this trump fella is more of an evil genius than i could have ever imagined. the sonofabitch actually COMPLIED with the tax law and filed in accordance with said law.
i don't know about you guys but i want to go on the record right here right now as demanding a very, very special prosecutor and a joint session of congress to open a full blown investigation into trump's LEGAL activity.
if this isn't grounds for impeachment then i don't know what is.
and furthermore, i'm calling on maxine waters to issue a statement condemning trump's LEGAL behavior.
who's with me???
why? so you could conflate 'income' vs. 'wealth' and intentionally misinterpret the entire issue for political gain?"
RRB you know he is not bright enough to get your point.
I notice Roger Krugman had to all of a sudden run.
He has a bad case of wealth envy, he has been that way with me ever since he found out that I have more Wealth, more income and more investments then him.

The type of congressman pauline and the fakers like to support. Brilliance is their middle name, dying is the way to get out of poverty and off the tit of government.....read lower taxes. Such brave men they are.
Kansas Rep. Roger Marshall went biblical to explain why we shouldn’t be overly concerned about making sure the poor have access to doctors. In an interview with STAT, a medical-affairs website, he opined as follows: “Just like Jesus said, ‘The poor will always be with us. There is a group of people that just don’t want healthcare and aren’t going to take care of themselves.”
Meantime, Utah Rep. Jason Chaffetz said poor people need to get their priorities straight. “Rather than getting that new iPhone that they just love and want to go spend hundreds of dollars on that,” he told CNN, “maybe they should invest in their own healthcare.”

Apparently some in the White House Press Corps are not familiar with taxes or economics. When the forms were released, White House Correspondent and Washington Bureau Chief for American Urban Radio Networks, April Ryan, tweeted:
So in 2005 @POTUS was not a Billionaire. He made in 2005 over 100 million dollars.
The White House released President Trump’s tax return from 2005 on Tuesday, which showed that he paid $38 million on $150 million in income. This disproves the premise of a major New York Times story in the lead-up to the November election.
The Oct. 1 Times story was headlined: “Donald Trump Tax Records Show He Could Have Avoided Taxes for Nearly Two Decades, The Times Found.” The New York Times reporters wrote: “Donald J. Trump declared a $916 million loss on his 1995 income tax returns, a tax deduction so substantial it could have allowed him to legally avoid paying any federal income taxes for up to 18 years, records obtained by The New York Times show.”
This report was so substantial that Trump was asked about it at a presidential debate and responded that he used tax deductions in order to not pay federal income taxes, but did not say for how many years.
The tax return released Tuesday shows that the most time Trump could have deducted money from his 1995 tax return to avoid paying taxes is nine years. This is half the amount of time the Times implied was the case.

liberals set to go full-on apeshit in 3, 2, 1...
President Donald Trump is set to sign a sweeping directive to dramatically shrink the role climate change plays in decisions across the government, ranging from appliance standards to pipeline approvals, according to a person familiar with the administration’s plan.
The order, which could be signed this week, goes far beyond a targeted assault on Obama-era measures blocking coal leasing and throttling greenhouse gas emissions from power plants that has been discussed for weeks. Some of the changes could happen immediately; others could take years to implement.
It aims to reverse President Barack Obama’s broad approach for addressing climate change. One Obama-era policy instructed government agencies to factor climate change into formal environmental reviews, such as that for the Keystone XL pipeline. Trump’s order also will compel a reconsideration of the government’s use of a metric known as the "social cost of carbon" that reflects the potential economic damage from climate change. It was used by the Obama administration to justify a suite of regulations.

Nope, the UAW loves this kind of winning as do I. We are going to regain our USA competitiveness as long as Trump keeps winning over so called science.

Keystone XL pipeline is going to be built and more oil will flow, Canada is such a great trading partner.
Dakota Access Pipe line is about to start flowing wealth from oil sales to the people that invested.

According to spicer, kellyannes microwave camera was a joke. The only joke here is spicer lying for another unforced stupid comment made by blondie. Not very bright... Maybe trump was joking when he said Obama tape's his phone.....yeah, should be so easy, but ...
White House counselor Kellyanne Conway sitting nearby in the briefing room, press secretary Sean Spicer insisted she was joking when she made her infamous comment about microwave surveillance.
“I will just say the president has tweeted about this,” said Spicer when asked to clarify whether Trump thought he had been betrayed by his microwave during Tuesday’s briefing, “he’s pretty clear there was surveillance, conducted during the 2016 election; going to wait for the conclusion of that. I think there’s pretty sound evidence that the microwave is not a sound way of surveilling someone, and I think that has been cleaned up; it was made in jest, so I think we can put that to rest.”
Trump is speaking to the things most Americans care about (not necessarily the things the media care about).
That is why he won in November.
And that is why he has a better than even chance of having a successful eight-year administration.
I'm sure CH will have some impeccable data proving otherwise.....If not, he'll just make something up like kellyanne and the microwave. Jokers, all of you.
Devin Nunes confirms it: The evidence of Trump Tower being wiretapped doesn’t exist WP headline
The Republican chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, who has been one of the few defenders of Trump's claims, made clear that there is zero evidence to suggest Trump Tower was wiretapped. Here's a list of others who have said the claim is not true.
According to spicer, kellyannes microwave camera was a joke.
You didn't get the joke?
Not surprise.
That is why he won in November.
He won because of idiots like you who will soon be paying up the nose for health care. Not sure they voted for that, menstral child.

Last month was 1.1 degrees Celsius warmer than the mean February temperature from 1951-1980. The two top February temperature anomalies have occurred during the past two years.
February 2016 was the hottest on record, at 1.3 degrees Celsius warmer than the February mean temperature. February 2017's temperature was 0.20 degrees Celsius cooler than February 2016.

(CNN)A federal judge in Hawaii has blocked President Donald Trump's new travel ban on Wednesday afternoon, hours before the ban was set to go into effect.
This ruling means that travelers from six Muslim-majority countries and refugees will be able to travel to the US.
The Trump administration took over a month to rewrite the travel ban order after multiple federal courts blocked its implementation last month.
Unlike the previous executive order, the new one removed Iraq from the list of banned countries, exempted those with green cards and visas, and removed a provision arguably prioritizes certain religious minorities.
Despite this changes, US District Court Judge Derrick Watson concluded that the new executive order still failed to pass legal muster.
The courts are going to make the wannbe Dictator took a month to prepare this. I can't wait to see what the anger tweet says. FAKE JUDGE
Trump is having a terrible day. I don't think it will get any better. The Republican party is so divided that they can't even repeal ObamaCare, let alone repeal and replace. The President make comments several time that he would give everyone health care. Now the 24 million number, that our esteemed host is bogus, but most Republicans dispute the CBO report, in fact they are in panic mode.
The Republicans are saying the wire tap accusation is false. The White House is trying to spin their way out of it. It's not working, his popularity remains at 40%. The ACA is more popular than ever.

we have reached the point that one need not possess a law degree, but only a modicum of common sense to understand just how flawed these TDS-fueled rulings have become.
"The net result is that Trump has been stripped of his constitutional and statutory powers to protect the nation through control of who is permitted to enter the country."

Obama-Appointed Hawaiian Judge Freezes Trump Travel Restrictions Before They Take Effect
Of course.
This Twitter thread by a lawyer associated with CATO notes this judge did not write much about the POLICY at all -- instead, he spends almost all his time arguing about Trump's MOTIVES that animated it.
He can't find anything unconstitutional about the actual policy, so he just says "But this guy is motivated by anti-Islamic bigotry so the policy, somehow, becomes unconstitutional."
Which puts us in the Alice in Wonderland situation of one president not being able to enact a policy, whereas another president -- one who has all his Social Justice Warrior Wokeness boxes ticked -- CAN enact the very same policy.
He also notes the people who brought the lawsuit (nominally -- I'm sure this was really a case of an interest group recruiting potential plaintiffs) didn't even apply for a waiver, which they could in fact do, meaning they did not exhaust all possible alternatives before filing to enjoin the executive order. He says this is a very easy reversal, based just on that.
Of course, that assumes the Ninth Circus justices care about the law when they issue their rulings -- which is very much in doubt.
http://ace.mu.nu/archives/368870.php
so yeah, i'm inclined to laugh my ass off too alky. but for the reason that we are witness to a legal theatre of the absurd, with so many liberal asshats motivated by their seething blinding hatred of president trump. TDS stage 11.
remember when "elections had consequences?"
they still do, alky. they still do.
worse case scenario - trump has to wait until gorsuch is confirmed, then this mockery of the rule of law goes before the USSC and trump emerges victorious.
One tax return from 12 years ago, "leaked" so that we don't even know whether it is fake or not, and we're supposed to conclude exactly what from that? That some stupid speculation about Trump in a NY Times story is wrong? That's not exactly a "stop the presses" revelation.
It could still be true, and probably is, that Trump has paid an embarrassingly small amount of taxes over the last two decades.
