WATCH: Trump Denies That He Essentially Pays No Taxes
The power of the President of the United States is immense. Donald Trump hasn’t used that power to help American voters. He has, in fact, used that power to make sure that his tax returns weren’t available to the public.
Trump denied the report when asked about it. “That is fake news,” he said. “That is totally fake news, made up, fake, we will do the same stories you can ask me the same question four years ago, I had to litigate this and talk about it.”
The president continued, “Actually I pay tax, you will see that as soon as my tax returns, it’s under audit, it’s been under audit for a long time. The IRS does not treat me well, they treat me like the Tea Party and they never treat me well, they treat me very badly.”
