Donald Trump’s Suspicious $48 Million Debt Raises Eyebrows, Looks Awfully Like ‘Tax Evasion,’ Says Report
From NASDAQ OMX Group:
A new report has revealed allegations of tax evasion linked to former President Donald Trump. Barbara Jones, a former judge and current special monitor, identified irregularities in Trump’s financial documents, pointing to potential financial misconduct in his business dealings.
The letter, written to Justice Arthur Engoron of the Manhattan Supreme Court, details $48 million in potential undisclosed income and raises questions about the integrity of Trump’s financial disclosures to government bodies. Trump’s lawyer claims an “internal loan” exists, but Trump’s October financial disclosures show debts exceeding $50 million to the same company.
Legal experts suggest these findings could signify tax evasion.
