Trump’s China Secret Not A Secret Any More.
Donald Trump and his cadre of sycophants have spent many months attacking Joe Biden on, well, anything and everything, including his son Hunter’s business dealings in China. Hunter Biden, they said, ‘opened a bank account in China’. This proves, they said, Hunter Biden was connected to ‘foreign nationals and foreign governments across the globe’.
Hmmm, we have now learned (via The New York Times) that that very same Trump has a bank account in China as well; where he paid $188,561 in taxes to the Chinese government ‘from 2013 to 2015’. The Times reporting reveals Trump also has bank accounts in Ireland and the UK. (NOTE: 188K in taxes to China is a little more than the $750 – no K – Trump paid in taxes in the United States of America in 2016 and 2017, each of those years).
It’s not surprising, or shouldn’t be, that, as reported in The Times, “…Trump’s own business history is filled with overseas financial deals, and some have involved the Chinese state. He spent a decade unsuccessfully pursuing projects in China, operating an office there during his first run for president and forging a partnership with a major government-controlled company. The foreign accounts do not show up on Mr. Trump’s public financial disclosures, where he must list personal assets, because they are held under corporate names.”
Yup, just around the corner.
