The absolute amount amount of non functioning brain cells you have along with all your fricked lefty buddies is not suprising.

As for presidential tax returns, Renwick said full transparency should also require former presidents to release their tax returns after they leave office to show what, if any, foreign business deals they make that could have been influenced by their policies and other dealings while in power.

Maybe he used it for all the bullshite impeachments the idiot democrats pulled.
So, essentially the democrats took money away from charities because of their love of the swamp.

Charitable Contributions
2017 -$
2018 -$
2019 -$
2020 - none
75% during presidency? Doesn’t mathematically seem like I got bamboozled.

So he definitively did not give his 2020 pay away? Seems like a dubious contention, but maybe so.
I cannot see him declining to take the full tax advantage of a $400,000 charitable contribution.
Barry may be correct about his AGI. I have not checked it.

When income as a multibillionaire logs in at -$x,xxx,xxx.xx in a given year, what is the "tax advantage of a $400,000 charitable contribution"?

The balance of things Trump did which benefited the country vs things he did which were negative still massively outweighs in his favor.
You're a twat.

I didn’t catch it. Outside of 706s I’m not a Tax preparer. But the poster that did (Texn) catch it explains it. His AGI was less than zero. Which means he can’t take any itemized deductions. Meaning he couldn’t take any charitable deductions. That is a perfectly reasonable explanation.
This return does nothing to prove or disprove whether he took the Presidential salary. If his past returns inform us at all…it would not be wise to assume he did not take a salary. In fact, it shows he took no salary without taking a deduction.
In the end. The OP is full of shite.

So you all squaking that Trump donated his salary got bamboozled once again. Why you guys think he is not a liar is beyond me
Now that it’s been vetted and it is clear you are wrong. Will you be admitting you lied? Or will you admit you fell for what the media told you about his returns?

Ok. Let’s see if I can simplify whether Trump donated his 2020 salary.
TLDNR: 2020 return does not answer the question, either way.
BASICS: The 2020 tax return does not tell us whether Trump made ZERO charitable donations or BILLIONS in donations, because he could not deduct charitable donations in 2020. Whatever donations he may have made simply CANNOT be DETERMINED from the 2020 return.
PRECIS: You list itemized deductions (including charitable donations) on Schedule A (and attachments), subject to certain limitations discussed below.
Trump lists $0 of charitable donations for 2020, but this DOES NOT mean that he made no such donations. Because you do NOT list ALL donations … only those that are deductible.
60% of all donations would normally be deductible (subject to some COVID-related caveats not applicable here). BUT you can deduct charitable donations ONLY if you have an Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) which exceeds the amount of the donations.
In 2020, Trump had an AGI of NEGATIVE $4.8 million (he lost money). As such, he would not legally be entitled to deduct ANY charitable donations, and he cannot legally even LIST non-deductible charitable donations on Schedule A … even if he MADE such donations in a sum of eleventy billion dollars.
DETAILED ANALYSIS: Beyond the scope of this post.
