So, Donald Trump the millionaire paid only $750 in taxes in 2016 and 2017, and nothing at all for years before that. Yet all the while, hardworking middle-class Americans paid far more than that every quarter.

Clearly Mr. Trump is not only a terrible businessman, but now we have proof that he also cheats the U.S. government out of millions of dollars by dodging his taxes. The richest people need to pay their fair share, not get richer on the backs of the rest of us. Time to tell Mr. Trump that he’s fired.
