The Lincoln-Crats present: Deep Dive into NY Times Trump Tax Return Article from 9/27/2020. Bruce Gerstenfeld CPA and Jeff Adelman break down the almost 50 page article from last week (feels like 2 months ago) so you don't have to. Donald Trump paid only $750 in taxes in 2017 and no or similar amounts in the years before. How was he able to do that? Does this show that he's a good businessman or is something else. Is it legal to deduct $70,000 in hair treatment even if it looks as bad as his hair looks? This and more.
