On Saturday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “AM Joy,” Representative Maxine Waters (D-CA) stated, “Some of us believe that Donald Trump is not paying any taxes. He’s taken advantage of all the loopholes. He knows all of the tricks.”
Waters said, “Every president since Nixon has shown their taxes. And I think the people have a right to know. We really need to know about Donald Trump, because we are still trying to figure out all of his business entanglements and his conflicts of interest. And so, he has not answered many questions, and even though we thought that he had placed all of his businesses in trusts, we find that that has not happened. And so, people all over this country are filling out their taxes, they are trying to do the right thing, you know, middle class people are paying 30, 35% taxes. Some of us believe that Donald Trump is not paying any taxes. He’s taken advantage of all the loopholes. He knows all of the tricks. We need to know what it looks like, who he owes, what kind of debt he has, and again, what kind of possible conflicts of interest.”
