Mainecat Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 A New York Times investigation into President Donald Trump's tax filings found that from 2010 to 2018, Trump wrote off about $26 million in unexplained consulting fees. Among them was $747,622 written off by the Trump Organization, the same amount his daughter Ivanka Trump reported receiving in consulting fees, according to The Times. The payment appeared to be related to managing hotel deals that were already part of her job, according to the newspaper. Reporters matched the number to one his daughter disclosed when she joined the White House in 2017. https://www.insider.com/trump-paid-ivanka-700000-plus-for-consulting-times-investigation-says-2020-9?fbclid=IwAR1HpBBV0MUblkMs5BVc2iWoFqmvxtbEqvk9IpvKg1ZojsoDD01f4Y51xtU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like you know every detail about what any consulting fee would pertain to? If she claimed the income on her taxes then no foul. Makes good fodder though for fools....

Bonuses are legal?? FYI, my last bonus was for me negotiating lower shipping rates,..all's I did was talk and use my knowledge in the world of logistics..So I call it a bonus, but definitely could have be a consulting fee..Is there any difference?? I got paid extra for a job well done.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
