Why is the Trump tax thing such an issue? It wasn't illegal and I assume all of us on this app take every legal deduction possible. Can we move on to real issues???????

Because he's been giving immigrants shit for not paying taxes. Then he went after Clinton for being in Wall Streets pockets and how they are dodging taxes. He made it an issue.

Same. I dgaf about his taxes. If politicians did their jobs, he wouldnt legally be able to do it. But he was a businessman so it's smart of him not to. Lot of issues with Trump but this just isnt one.

like

Because all former candidates have released them. He hasn't. He won't.

I agree with you OP. I know if I were half as rich as him I'd do the same thing. But I would like to see his tax returns so we can see who he's indebted to. I don't care about how much he makes or donates or how he spends it

like

He's not paying taxes because legally he doesn't have to. Big difference between that and people who straight up evade taxes like he thinks immigrants do. Either way there's literally no wrongdoing so I don't see why we have to dedicate so much time to this...

Oh for sure I'd like him to release his returns too but I have come to accept that he probably won't. I would rather have these candidates discuss policy rather than personal shortcomings, which we are acutely aware they have

like

Just because you're running for president doesn't mean you don't take every applicable deduction lol... regardless, my issue is more with the fact that half this debate has concerned personal issues versus policies that actually affect us

No one has stated that taking advantage of the code is illegal. BTW he didn't do it - his accountant did and should get all the credit. If he would've released them from the go and say "hey I pay no taxes because I take advantage of the code" this probably wouldn't be an issue. But he hasn't. He won't. Therefore he is hiding something. What it is? We would never know.

like

No but they try to imply he did something wrong, which he didnt. Anyways the point of the post was that this debate is wasting time on shit that doesn't even affect anyone other than Hil or Trump

I would be more devoted if it wasn't such a waste of time as it is proving to be. What is this ridiculous question they just asked about being for all people? Soundbyte after soundbyte, someone please tell me what they will do to ensure SS solvency....

I think him bribing ppl and nefarious business practices is the problem. Can we get any Bainees to chime in? His consulting firm of choice.

Clinton has just as many skeletons in her closet but I don't need a presidential debate to tell me that. I would rather hear them discuss how they will fix Obamacare, Social Security, etc. in the limited time we have.

ok Op. Watch the debate then and stop posting on FB.

Have any of you felt your careers aren’t progressing as fast as your yt contemporaries? I just went down a LinkedIn rabbit hole looking through the profiles of some women (non-black) who I worked alongside 12-15 years ago at internships and entry level roles. Almost all of them are director level. I’m still struggling to get to manager level. All of us started in media roles then transitioned to tech in the last 5 years or so.
