Trump tax returns leaked. For realz.

If he claimed $5M that’s a negotiation. But $100M is slim dunk fraud.

I had that thought, but I think $750 is better. It’s doesn’t get outmemed by the existing three fiddy meme and somehow $750 seems lamer.

No need to bring him into this. Let the man rip.

He already skated past almost this exact messaging four years ago. It didn’t move the needle for the people who needed to be moved. $750 is an easy one-liner to share, but I can’t see it making a big impact re:

  1. Making Trump fans stay home, or
  2. Energizing the ambivalent/undecided.

You do both by making these people scared that Trump will hurt them, or at least fail in getting them what they want. They dgaf if he’s shorting the government. Both of these groups believe what they do in part because they either hate or mistrust the government.

True but it’s a lot of survivorship bias rolled into a somewhat sustainable advantage. Sort of like megalomaniacs that make the final table with enough chips to ICM bully everyone. Most of them busted in the first few levels, but the few who win a few flips use their massive stacks to force folds. If you flip hot and are born into hundreds of millions of dollars you have a great setup. On the other hand, I’d assume psychopaths born into poverty land in prison at a much higher rate.

I truly believe that being a full-blown (functioning) psycho is the optimal high-ceiling “strategy” for basically everything. It has a high failure rate and overall lower expectation yet the highest probability of getting to the top and winning it all in the same way that you won’t win a large-field stock picking competition by making a bunch of safe picks.

Biden should never mention the issue but should see how many times he can work 750 into his answers, like the Super Troopers meow game.

Eh, people, and swing voters almost by definition, are irrational. Half the R strategy is making people angry about the crumbs their neighbors get “unfairly” while their donors rob the country blind.

“I assumed it was bad, but $750???” is a perfectly cromulent attempt to push a button w/ these people.

Like others have said, $750 is irrationally even better than $0.

Should get wirelessgrinderbro back here to road test the average deplorable’s response to various Biden scenarios.

lol I haven’t talked to him in 60+ days i think. Really really trying hard to not give in to the desire to clown on him about this shit.

100% he thinks Trump paying less than he does is a good thing though and fully expects to have the same amount of money and pay the same amount of taxes as Trump does sometime in the future.

I’m just waiting till this fucker loses hopefully and first message I send him will be fuck you pay me. Already have the comey bet in the bag it seems from the report yesterday about no durham report so I’m freerolling the election bet.

I’ll take a stab:

  1. Lol only an idiot pays taxes
  2. Lol NYT - nothing is proven
  3. Yeah of course he lost money - he gave up his awesome business life to be president
  4. Biden wrote something off once
  5. All businesses technically lose money to get out of taxes
  6. Hunter Biden
  7. Dude still shits on a solid gold toilet - even more impressive being $400M in debt
  8. Another bloody weekend in Chicago

The one time I wish Parscale success…

Kidding. I have nothing against Parscale. He appears to be a third-rate web page builder who pulled off an amazing grift on Trump, the GOP, and deplorables. Best wishes, Brad!

Remember: This is only his tax records. These records are what he claimed to the IRS. What he admitted to. And we all know he lies ALWAYS.
So now we play spot the lies. Like $100M write offs for $3M properties. It’s going to take years to find them all.

The big question to me is assets, which aren’t disclosed. We think we know some of his assets, but do we really? What lies have been accepted as fact without vetting? EVERYTHING is open to question.

Isn’t the simplest line, “He’s a giant, broke fraud.”

I really think the $750 dollars thing is not the right framing because that is too easily spun as being smart or savvy. Just pound the table that he’s a fraud, he’s losing more money than he hs, and he’s not wealthy at all.

I’d rather wish that he comes a lot closer to succeeding before failing.
