Things seem not to be going so well for the Trump campaign...

There's the NYT story about his tax fiddling, which apparently includes this:

Between 2010 and 2018, Trump wrote off about $26 million in mysterious "consulting fees," helping to reduce his family's tax bill. At least some of those fees appear to have been paid to his daughter Ivanka Trump, despite her being a top Trump Organization executive, according to the Times.

And this:

President Donald Trump spent more than $US70,000 to style his hair when he was on “The Apprentice,” and he wrote off the costs as a business expense, The New York Times reported Sunday. 

and this:

Additionally, nine Trump entities paid nearly $US100,000 to Ivanka Trump’s hair and makeup artist, according to The Times report. 
And the NYT promises more stories to come.

Trump is sounding desperate with "Biden should be drug tested before the debate".   

Polling seems to be sticking pretty solidly in Biden's favour.

And meanwhile, his recently sacked campaign manager is suicidal.   

I find it hard to imagine Biden doing so badly in the first debate so as to undo all of this bad PR.

But I guess you never know...

  1. Very easy way to play Trump on tax.
    you say it is fake so show us your tax files.
    Then we know if it is fake or not.

  2. The polls are tightening. It is essential Biden comprehensively wins the first debate.

  3. The New York times believers have been going on about the tax returns for four years. As you can plainly see they came up with nothing. If they went back 30 years they would find something. But as you see its all a big nothing burger.

  4. Debates very rarely change votes.

    A great lone for Biden is I have paid a lot more tax than you a failed businessman.

  5. Steve,

    This debate is important to dispel the idea that Biden has brain rot. A big win by Biden will make Trump look foolish and destroy one of his key talking points.

  6. Biden should also have fun with the national security implications of the loans payable to foreign organisations
