Did NYT Just Implode Clinton's Campaign?

NYT's Salaciously Titled Slam Fest
By Thornton Crowe

Well, by now, you've all heard the news that the New York Times got some of Donald Trump's tax returns and now touts he hasn't paid taxes in almost two decades.

As damning as this may appear on the surface for Trump, it's only damning to the status quo candidate - Hillary Clinton!

Why you ask?  We'll let's see...

First, Trump has repeatedly complained on the campaign trail and in primary debates that the IRS has audited him for the same length of time. Furthermore, he proposes to cut out the tax loopholes he has taken advantage of over the years as a wealthy business owner. So, to say he hasn't been honest is absolutely absurd. They just proved he's been above board with the American voters. And his taxes actually validates his reason for promising to eliminate loophole. Furthermore, given these audits, we know this is perfectly legal; therefore, any inference of criminal behavior or tax evasion is also equally absurd.

Second, may I remind you folks to the following: Who was president during the Nineties? Bill Clinton. And who was the previous two presidents? George W. Bush and Barack Obama. These loopholes were perfectly legal under these two presidents, too. So what does this tell you about the candidate whose going to continue this status quo? Explanation not needed as the logic here is as clear as the nose on your face.

Third, the Clinton Foundation pay to play money laundering racket masquerading as a 'charity' is currently being investigated by the IRS for dodging taxes for many years as charities enjoy tax-free status. Apparently, the Clintons haven't been paying their fair share through illegal means not the use of tax regulation loopholes.

To say the NYT's big moment is now being flooded in mud is an understatement as many other news outlets are questioning if this was such a brilliant move of their part. This exposure is only making the Democrats and their gal pal look worse, not better.

So before the Democrats start doing their happy dances and high fives, perhaps they should keep the above in mind because, rest assured, informed voters are seeing through the Liberal Media's Magical Purple Haze.  All this really did was also further marginalize the once-regarded newspaper as its clear they're just another arm of the Clinton campaign!

Aren't you getting a little tired of the media's biased spin?

How say you.

The middle class will decide this election.
I am solidly middle class and I cannot fathom not wanting to pay taxes. I want to pay for the benefits that I receive, military, police, schools, roads, etc...
Only moochers try to get out of paying.
I believe we will start to see a huge shift in the polls towards Clinton.

If the New York Times spent half it's time going after the real crime with Hillary Clinton than going after to smear Donald Trump, she would not even have 20% in the polls at best. This just solidified my vote for Trump.

1115 your comment shows you're not informed. Trump's paid real estate taxes all over New York City and every other state he has businesses. This is FEDERAL TAXES that don't pay for roads, schools, or police. You also didn't read the whole post, the Clintons don't pay taxes either but their tax relief is not from legal law but from illegally claiming they're a charity when less than 2% of the money they get is given to actual charity work. Reading comprehension is left out of education today. So sad these people actually vote without having a clue about the facts staring them in the face!

The Clintons' biggest charity is themselves and their operating budget. There are all kinds of articles about this all over the internet and Joe's put many on here too. Headline voters.

You can tell by the headline the article in the NYT is fluff. It says he COULD have avoided paying taxes. They didn't really give any proof that he did avoid paying taxes. The Democrats have had control over congress since 1995 so why haven't they changed the laws?

He only followed the tax laws as they're written. That's why he, as does any businessman with any wits, hires a tax accountant and tax attorney. Gee, just like the New York Times does!

I'll bring the common sense. 😳😳 said...

The NYT illegally obtained personal information and published it without permission. The unintended consequences are it shows Trump is a genius.

You are a hero and I admire you for paying taxes.
I am a Trump supporter and have paid taxes since birth. I also don't mind paying taxes for services, but when the taxes go elsewhere, that's what I object to. Paying taxes is about like making donations to a charity and the thieves that run the organization get ninety cents out of the dollar and the charity you give to gets ten cents. Same with taxes, Social Security, etc. I would be happy to not pay a penny for the wagon trails we drive over. Where do you think the guy in the White House got the ransom money recently?

You can't call someone voting for a corrupt criminal a hero. Anti American. Last thing DC needs is to import more corruption we need to get rid of it. 1115 is insane. Not right thinking is never heroic it's just stupid.

Put on your thinking cap, it was sarcastic. I guess everything posed here has to be explained to the low or slow readers

There is so much waste and fraud involved with federal taxes which is why taxpayers are demanding change. The Clintons and liberals have been not only allowed loopholes but continue to take advantage of them. They're only deceitful in their talk to make voters think they oppose "tax breaks for the rich". They don't earn their keep.

Thornton Crowe said...

2:28P it is the Liberal way to divide people by race and class. Without that tactic, Alinsky wouldn't work for them. Apparently, it's not working out so hot now as Clinton has managed to alienate just about everyone. Perhaps it's the dementia meds or something to do with her health, but her utter contempt for her fellow mankind has been known since her Arkansas glory days. Super predators ring any bells?
