Comments by "Hugh Jorgan" (@HughJorgan1) on "Trump paid $750 in federal income taxes year he won presidency: Report" video.

  1. I'm reminded of 2017 when MSNBC got a hold of Trump's 2005 taxes. They built up the story as the "Bombshell that will bring down the Presidency!" The documents showed Trump paid $38 million in taxes on $150 million in income. I think MSNBC's lie was when the term "MSM Nothing Burger" really took hold.

  2. Debbie Hankins...You make a good subtle point. In 2017, MSNBC somehow got a hold of a portion of Trump's 2005 taxes and built up the story as the "Bombshell that will bring down Trump!". As you point out, the documents showed Trump paid $38 million in taxes on $150 million in income. I think MSNBC's story was when the term "Nothing Burger" really took hold.

  3. If it's true he paid only $750 (a big if), I think Trump was very smart. Smart people leverage every tax advantage available.
