Trump Tax Returns Strongly Suggest Illegal Activity
First let me get this out of the way. I’m not trying to change any minds about the upcoming election. One way or another the piper will be paid and there is nothing any of us can do to affect it which leads to the second thing we need to clear up in advance. If you are a sucker, dupe, a financial moron or otherwise an imbecile I’m not going to tolerate Facebook quality comments from people that barely passed high school who in February were all shithouse MPHs before graduating to become shithouse epidemiologists. That kind of ignorance can stay on Facebook. Slabbed has been following the money for 13 years because money doesn’t lie, unlike sociopaths or useful idiots to sociopaths.
Let’s start as it unfolded on the Slabbed twitter account because it was there I first revealed my thoughts:
The early reporting failed to answer the most basic question anyone could ask, “How was Trump funding those losses?”. There is no such thing as a money tree or Santa Claus and the IRS does not allow hypothetical losses against income. Having prepared taxes for over 30 years the only businesses I’ve witnessed posting losses year after year all ended up in bankruptcy or otherwise insolvent and closed. Its a simple economic fact of life but there is more here because Trump doesn’t just live, he lives large and in charge paying hookers hundreds of thousands more than he does in taxes so something else has to be in the equation. Luckily for everyone there are some very sharp people on Twitter.

Other Voices | Tom Callaghan: A War if Trump Wants One
Posted on September 24, 2020
Benjamin Netanyahu and Sheldon Adelson have a war all teed up for President Trump if he thinks he needs a war to win re-election. Timing is elegant. Iran is available. Use the Debate Sept 29 to take command of the stage. Remind us of your love for Israel. Commence hostilities first or second week of October.
Bye Bye Biden. Everybody knows a President gets a bump in the polls when our troops are at risk. Whether its a legitimate use of force, well now you’re being technical. Our President has an election to win. Nobody likes Iran anyway so its a win, win, win. Do you think Adelson came in $35 Mil strong in the last week of 2016, and gave five times more than the next largest giver to the Trump Inaugural Committee because he’s a flower child and, like Rodney King, just wants us “all to get along.” C’mon, man, you don’t go into the Casino business because you want to give someone a fair shot.
Netanyahu has experience sending the USA to war. Here he is, as a private Israeli citizen, between his first and second term as Israeli Prime Minister lecturing a compliant committee of our Congress on the duty of the United States to go to war with Iraq because in Netanyahu’s words “there was absolutely no doubt” that Saddam had weapons that, as it turned out, he didn’t have.

Putting this one down here now for later use
In these pandemic times this tidbit didn’t last long in the news cycle and it deserves some attention:
The woman behind ‘Roe vs. Wade’ didn’t change her mind on abortion. She was paid ~ Meredith Blake
Advertising is the art of convincing people to spend money they don’t have for something they don’t need. ~ Will Rogers
Dat ol Denial River Rolls On
First comes the revelation that Trump thinks our soldiers are chumps and then Bob Woodward reveals that the disaster in chief knew how bad the ‘rona was for a long time and chose instead to lie about it.
There are some profound implications here, especially Trump’s decision to hold that campaign rally in Tulsa this past summer knowing beforehand it would kill some of his own supporters, such as Herman Cain. To endanger your most fervent supporters reveals the special kind of contempt Donald harbors for his own people.
The GOPers down here love to wrap themselves up in the flag and it makes them such easy marks for a sociopath that thinks our war dead are losers. The ironies are so 2020 (and delicious).
I’d look for more damning revelations to come.
