"Brazen" Fraud: David Cay Johnston on How Trump's Tax Returns Show He Fleeced U.S. & Enriched Himself

Six years of Donald Trump's tax returns were released by a House committee on Friday after a years-long legal battle by the former president to keep them sealed. Early revelations include the finding that Trump paid just $750 in federal income tax during his first year in office in 2017, and he paid no tax in 2020. The newly released tax records give a long-overdue glimpse of Trump's personal and business finances, which he refused to disclose during the 2016 presidential election, breaking with decades of precedent. Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative reporter David Cay Johnston, who has covered Trump for decades, says the new documents show absolutely brazen" tax fraud. Donald Trump has been a criminal his whole life," says Johnston.
