That is for NON CASH CHARITABLE contributions. This was CASH donated to a NON CHARITABLE organization. Swing and a miss.
Actually, Trump stated he's "donated non-cash to charities" and "donated cash to charities".
- I answer with form 8283 for one type of his donation.
Famous mobsters back in those days were arrested that way (tax fraud schemes) because the government didn't have a case against them via the typical way (e.g. murder, bribery, prostitution, extortion, corruption of public officials, gambling, infiltration of legitimate businesses, labor racketeering, loan sharking, and stock manipulation schemes)...typically what you'll see run by a crime family.
Tax Fraud Schemes are one way to find a common trail from one illegal activity to another illegal activity...it s a way to open a can of worms.
Trump has some serious legal issues ahead for him because it gives the government a way to look at other concerning issues too.
Ironically, he gave a big fight about having his tax info released when prior to his Presidency he wanted access to taxes of those he was running against.
