Trump Org. Exec Just Dropped A Major Bombshell About Donald Trump In Court: He ‘Authorized’ Rent In Tax Fraud Scheme

Donald Trump may have just announced that he officially intends to run for the 2024 presidency, but that’s not the only news that has broken about him. It’s just been revealed that major untaxed perks were “authorized” by the ...

www.yahoo.com

Weisselberg told a jury that Trump, 76, was not only aware of the untaxed benefits at the heart of the government’s criminal case against the Trump Organization, but he was the guy who authorized them, as it was ‘convenient for the company’ for Weisselberg and other senior employees to receive benefits and bonuses that were not declared as part of their regular salary.

On one occasion in 2012, the former president apparently signed checks for Weisselberg’s grandchildren’s private school tuition after Donald Trump Jr. had walked in with his own children’s tuition checks to have signed. “I may as well pay for your grandkids too,” Trump reportedly joked. Weisselberg added that he reduced his salary by the amount of the tuition in order to pay back the money, however this resulted not only in less taxable income for himself, but also for the Trump Organization by paying him less.

Sounds like a conviction. Republicans that weren’t going to vote for Trump should be happy.

Yep you guys finally got him this time! Muellertime part 25!!

In the end, it is the individual's responsibility to report income to the govt. In fact, in the case cited, the Trump org could have taken those expenditures as tax deductions. If they did, that is a problem for Tump. If they didn't it would be up to the beneficiary to claim those benefits and Trump lost out on a company deduction.

The company should report taxable fringe benefits on the employee's W-2.

Of course Weisselberg was the organization's accountant. That would have been his responsibility. Not the direct responsibility of the company president.

The fact that Trump signed the checks doesn't mean that he authorized illegal tax avoidance. I think there's a good chance that Weisselberg brought the idea to Trump.

Not Hunter, it’s the compromised master mind in charge of the influence peddling crime syndicate that needs to be thrown in jail. And that master mind is Joe Biden.

Agreed but if Trump Org didn't report it as a deduction as part of pay, there are lots of games that can be played. We'll see. Seems to me that paying a kids college tuition isn't the worst thing someone can do in terms of hiding taxable income if it wasn't claimed on Trump's company education as payroll. Fact is, the Govt got their money because Trump would have taken it off of his company's income.

At the end of the day it took them several years to discover this "crime" and it's a truly minor offense.

How many people declare their rewards miles as income?
How about credit card rewards?

They aren't putting people in jail for these things.

Agreed and in the court of public opinion, he paid some dude's kid's college tuition? Biden is doing that with his attempt grant kid's college loans. Wouldn't that also be income?

Hunter is 100% guilty of tax fraud. For some reason, no one in the IRS or Department of Justice has any interest in the felony that Hunter committed

That's all you've got, Dr. Conspiracy Guy?! No fact based response? No post full of diagrams and arrows that purports to refute Donald Trump's complicity in this tax evasion scheme? You're slipping. Time for you to consult with Q. 🐘 🤡

The organization has an obligation to report all income/expense items properly. To knowingly not report those payments as taxable to the employee they committed a fraud and underpaid their own taxes (payroll taxes). Tax fraud is a serious crime and impacts all of us.

Not even close to being on topic. Joe Biden is not under investigation for anything. He is not embroiled in numerous cases like Cheeto.

It would be an amusing parallel if the Feds nailed Cheeto for tax fraud in the same way they nailed Al Capone. Too bad Alcatraz is no longer a functioning federal prison. ("Cast him down with Pard and the other Sodomites!")
