I'm sure Trump's base can relate and does the same thing..

 

[WedgeX]

The casino finances are not reported in a person's personal tax return, just like we wouldn't know the finances of the Clinton Foundation from Hillary's tax returns.

My point being that if Trump's business dealing have been this shady out in public his tax returns might yield some Nixon level revelations.

 

[rokkerkory]

Trump's idea to deal with the deficit is just not to pay

 

[El Topo]

Drumpf is trumps,actual,family name before it was changed when his family moved to America.

That doesn't seem to be entirely correct. German media (e.g. SZ) reports that the family only carried the name until roughly 1700. Then again, it doesn't really matter, see also this article on his ancestry from Kallstadt.

 

[Meffer]

They're going HAM on Trump.

Trump just makes it too easy for them.

 

[RedAssedApe]

disgusting biased liberal media. sad

 

[CO_Andy]

but i thought Trump loved New York values

 

[BigDug13]

Why would they if the hackers are pro trump.

Russian hackers are pro-Trump. Time for Hillary to hire some Ukrainian hackers.

He's going to convince China to accept pennies on the dollar. Believe me!

 

[Imperfected]

Damn. With this along with the Manafort material and their editorial writers taking turns beating up on him it is like Trump ran over the Times's dog.

I mean, he (or his surrogates) have accused them of fabricating stories without (or made-up) sources, declared their work to not be Constitutionally protected speech, and outright said that he wants to change the law so that he can sue them, in specific, or shutter their operations, not to mention his threats of revoking press credentials.

Next, perhaps he plans to tell the world the Secret Service are garbage people who can't do their job, and announce his intentions to dissolve the service and have all present members executed as soon as he becomes President.

I'd make a joke about him publicly humiliating the RNC and getting everyone related to his campaign fired, too, but that seems a little on-the-nose.

 

[Netherscourge]

Hackers are Pro-Chaos. (the ones not employed by any governments that is)

Trump just happens to be the best medium for chaos at the moment.

 

[Gordon Shumway]

Pretty sure it's meant to sound German to evoke Nazi imagery. But it's not and never will be clever or funny and to everyone else it's about as intelligent as saying "Obummer"

Must be fun in the land of make believe..

Well this story required some digging, so did the other. They're going after these stories lol.

 

[McLovin]

Want to fix the economy? Get trump to pay his backed taxes

You forgot the exclamation point.

 

[Whom_Gods_Annoy]

Nothing is cuter than the people thinking they are witty by saying Drumpf instead of Trump.

What about puppies?

Depends on if the puppies got payed off by Killary $hillton

 

[TarpitCarnivore]

I'm sure this has been said millions of times, but it bothers me that some people get so upset about individuals taking advantage of welfare or social security, but there is no outrage over dudes like Trump scamming the country out of tens of millions of dollars in taxes. Sheesh.

Being from NJ it's hard not to point at Trump as one of the reasons Atlantic City is regressing so bad right now. The city is in some serious problems and stuff like this is only adding fuel to the fire.

Its his familys original name that was changed when they immigrated. Obummers a lame pun. Drumpf is literally his name.

I'm not afraid to admit I'm wrong. But on the other hand, people do use it in that context.

Edit: then there's also the fact that it isn't his name now so bringing it up is still entirely irrelevant unless: see my post above.

 

[RedAssedApe]

the more you know.

 

[PeskyToaster]

Plenty of families changed their names when coming to America. First names, last names, and spellings.

yes but trump has personally mocked other people for doing this

 

[Whom_Gods_Annoy]

And its used in a way that makes it the wimpy fart of name calling. At least you can laugh at the people saying Crooked Hillary unironically.

It has, perhaps only now with Trump's presidential run, been well reflected upon by Newsweek, Philly Mag, and the Washington Post. He's shown himself to be a snake oil selling braggart of a charlatan.

 

[VistraNorrez]

Christie also settled for $250 million with Exxon when it could have been as much as $8.9 Billion.

 

[jmood88]

It makes me really sad to see Clickbait-styled headlines from the New York Times.

But oh well, great reporting all the like!

The whole point of a headline is to attract readers to read the article. This isn't anything new.

 

[gutter_trash]

Time to reward the NYT by subscribing.

They have been top tier this year

 

[AxelFoley]

Stop the Drumpf shit, please. It's no better than "Obummer", "Odumbo", all that shit.

You really wanna go there?

Don't get me wrong, part of it is on AC for not doing anything beyond casinos but I point to trump given the sheer number of operations he had there.

 

[wachie]

Ms. Anderson also wrote that Mr. Trump’s flagship casino, the Taj Mahal, had reported to the casino commission that it paid $2.2 million in alternative minimum assessment tax in 2003, which was not true. The company had paid only $500 in income taxes.

Is that a typo?

 

[Chie Satonaka]

Gee, this is shocking information. Christie did favors for Trump and effectively didn't pay what he owed in taxes? Donald Trump, the bastion of integrity and truthfulness, didn't pay his fair share? Golly. Everything I knew is wrong.

Also, lol at people still whining about "Drumpf".

You know, by talking about it no matter what side you're on you're still contributing, making your point hypocritical.

Not really. Besides amusement (and me pointing out that amusement), I don't have a dog in the fight.

Also, didn't you make it more relevant by responding to it?

 

[FunkyMunkey]

seriously the people complaining about it are magnitudes more annoying than actually reading drumpf in a post

great work by the new york times, im going to subscribe to them very soon. i bet there will be more of this kind of crap leading up to november.

Is there a bigger chump than Christie?

I honestly don't think so.

I fucking hate Ted Cruz, but somehow, as slimy and disgusting as he is, THAT guy somehow looks better than Chris Christie.

Edit:

Oh my. Haha.

Yeah, but I mean, I'm not really complaining about other people contributing to the drumpf discussion. Which is the point I'm trying to make. Npt trying to be hostile or anything, just kinda ironic.

That's not a click bait title at all.

Come on.

Yeah but he's ten.

 

[Crisco]

Yikes, I guess this is why you don't fuck with the news media, they actually start doing their job.

 

[Captin Quacker]

And similar to trump he's been ten most of his life
