So obviously the tax evasion is infuriating but it's commonplace for those that have means. Poor people pay taxes, rich people pay tax lawyers. Simple fact of living under a system designed for and by capital.

What's more important--and unusual--about Trump's taxes is the fact he's close to half a billion dollars in debt to unknown entities despite the tax games. He's either been defrauding the IRS or the banks lending him money or, most likely, both. And in any event it's very unlikely these debt holders have the same interests as any of us, and yet they hold immense leverage over the president, a craven, wealth-obsessed conman.

If one doesn't understand why this is a dire circumstance, it's probably because one is just a complete fucking moron.
