I wouldn't want my taxes seen, either.

Oh, wow. I am so shocked. ๐Ÿ™„
[quote]President Donald Trump has filed financial disclosure statements that appear to misstate the value and profitability of his Scotland golf courses by $165 million, possibly violating federal laws that are punishable by jail time.

Trump claimed in his 2018 U.S. filing that his Turnberry and Aberdeen resorts were each worth more than $50 million. For that same time period, he filed balance sheets with the United Kingdom government showing that their combined debt exceeded their assets by 47.9 million British pounds โ€• the equivalent of $64.8 million at the exchange rate on Dec. 31, 2017, the date of the last U.K. filing available.
His 2018 โ€œpublic financial disclosureโ€ filed with the U.S. Office of Government Ethics also claims those two resorts earned him โ€œincomeโ€ of $23.8 million. His filings with the U.K. Companies House office in Edinburgh for that period showed the resorts had actually lost 4.6 million pounds โ€• equal to $6.3 million.

His U.S. disclosure statement also fails to mention $199.5 million in loans Trump has made to those resorts: $54.9 million from him personally to Trump International, Scotland in Aberdeenshire; $144.6 million from his trust to Trump Turnberry in Ayrshire.
Knowingly providing false or incomplete information on that form is a violation of the Ethics in Government Act punishable by up to a year in jail. Signing the form attesting to the untrue information constitutes making a false statement, punishable by up to five years in prison.[/quote]

Shocking! Trump behaving like Trump. Again. First President in modern times, not to divest himself, from external financial interests, prior to taking office.

This isn't surprising. Trump has lied about his financial dealings for decades. And as president, he continues to do so, because if he is caught, he can't be charged. He knows a good scam when he sees one.

Yeah,not like he will suffer any consequences of his actions as per effing usual ๐Ÿ™„

Those courses are just the tip. He has falsely reported values for loans, taxes and of course bragging rights.
But, obama!

Personally I still want to see Obama's sealed college records. It would be interesting to find out why he spent so much money to hide his past???

@pismo He had Cohen threaten his high school, to prevent the release of his records there. Trump brags about Wharton. In fact, he was a transfer to the undergrad program at the U of Penn, from Fordham U, thanks to his dad's connections. HIs voters are confused. He did not get an MBA from there. What he got was a certificate in real estate management.

President Obama was the Harvard Law Review. As a Harvard Law student, you need to excel academically, to get that position.

Of course, part of their "story", is that his school records, will show that he got in, because he listed himself as a foreign student, proving: a) that he used a quota to his advantage, and 2) he is foreign born.

As an aside, foreign students, at places like Harvard, have much tougher acceptance criteria. Harvard only takes a certain percentage of foreign applicants, and the entire world of applicants has to compete for these positions.

@Graylight if his books are wrong the only one in trouble is his accountants

@MarineBob Of course, Blame it on someone else like he always does. Do you hire Shister & Scammer Specializing in Tax Fraud and Evasion Accountants Firm, from the yellow pages? "We always have your Best Interest in mind" ? He knows exactly were every dime goes or "Your Fired". (I'm not a crook just a pathological liar.) And that fraud "University" was all Obama's fault, just being mean and unfair to me.
