So…here we have MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow, desperate for ratings (Fox 3.5 million viewers vs her 1.5 million viewers) with her thought to be huge scoop with a copy of President Trump’s tax return for 2005. She drags it out for twenty minutes before telling her audience Trump earned 153 million dollars and paid 38 million in tax’s. She did him a big favor. It proves his success and it turns out he paid 25% in tax’s. In Obama’s last return he paid 18% in tax’s. Socialist/Marxist Bernie Sander’s paid 13% of his income in tax’s. Earlier the New York Times reported President Trump had paid no income tax in 18 years. More cable ratings coming up.
Reporter David K. Johnston said he received the two page return in the mail. Asked NBC’s Matt Lauer…do you think Trump leaked it himself? Said Johnston…”Probably not.” Johnston figures Trump earned approximately 81 million on average over the last ten years. Reports indicate even NBC sister station, CNBC, has mocked the Maddow’s thought to be expose’.
Says a Trump tweet….Does anybody really believe that a reporter, who nobody knows, “went to his mailbox” and found my tax return? NBC FAKE NEWS. He never quits. Said ABC’s legal analyst Dan Abram’s…”This is actually a good return for Donald Trump.”
Cable TV ratings ending first week of March. Fox news remains number one all day. As for prime time: Fox News 3.5 million viewers , ESPN 1.7 million, HGTV 1.6 million, MSNBC 1.5 million. And laughable, CNN tied for 7th with the History channel at 1.3 million viewers.
Elsewhere, jacksjargon’s opinion the Republican’s should make an attempt at health care reform and then let it go in favor of Obamacare’s total collapse is gathering momentum. Even if GOP health care passes in the House, very little chance it will pass in the Senate. Other news, home builder’s confidence is at its highest in 10 years. Never media reported, but optimism reins in the USA. As business grows so does jobs. And better paying jobs as company’s compete for better workers.
