WOW! Shameless hypocrite Hillary Clinton attacked Donald Trump today for using the current law to avoid paying taxes for several consecutive years.
Hillary posted several tweets attacking Trump for using a common legal tax offset scheme.
Reminder: While Trump probably pays no federal taxes, he wants a $4 billion tax break for his own family. https://t.co/T1OAQgo7qq pic.twitter.com/2QDJ7esJix

Now thisâŚ
Hillary Clinton used the same tax âschemeâ on her taxes last year.
WOW!
Well this is a little awkward. With the leaked 1995 Trump tax returns âscandalâ focused on the billionaireâs yuuge ânet operating lossâ and how it might have âlegallyâ enabled him to pay no taxes for years, we now discover none other than Hillary Rodham Clinton utilized a $700,000 âlossâ to avoid paying some taxes in 2015.
The Clinton Campaign was quick to jump on the leaked Trump tax filing with Robby Mook tweetingâŚ
Trump “apparently got to avoid paying taxes for nearly two decadesâwhile tens of millions of working families paid theirs.” pic.twitter.com/g62jB9fKr5

And Hillary following up, adding Trump âapparently got to avoid paying taxes for nearly two decadesâwhile tens of millions of working families paid theirs.â
However, a look back at Hillary Clintonâs tax returns from 2015 (here), proudly displayed by the campaign proving she has nothing to hide â shows something awkward on page 17âŚ
While not on the scale of Trumpâs business âoperating lossâ, Hillary Clinton â like many âwealthyâ individuals is taking advantage of a legal scheme to use historical losses to avoid paying current taxes.
