Well, it looks like the New York Times found some of Trump's tax returns. As expected, he's hemorrhaged money (at least as far as the IRS knows), but even I was taken aback by one particular passage:
Yes, one person fucked up so much that he was responsible for an entire percent of the business losses of an entire country. And he's now the President.
I'm reminded of that one episode of Archer where Cheryl's brother invites the main characters down to his submarine, and asks if they've ever had concerns about her mental health (so he can take control of her share of the Tunt fortune) and everyone casually volunteers information that's so extreme that even he was shocked at the scope of her mental problems. I wish I could find a clip of that scene because that would certainly sum up my thoughts on this news.
Quote:“His losses were so big that in 1991 they accounted for fully 1% of all business losses declared that year by individual American taxpayers,”
