  • Trump's taxes show chronic losses and years of income tax avoidance

    Sep 28, 2020

    Donald Trump paid $750 in federal income taxes the year he won the presidency. In his first year in the White House, he paid another $750.

As the president wages a reelection campaign that polls say he is in danger of losing, his finances are under stress, beset by losses and hundreds of millions of dollars in debt coming due that he has personally guaranteed....
