    Documents obtained by ProPublica show stark differences in how Donald Trump’s businesses reported some expenses, profits and occupancy figures for two Manhattan buildings, giving a lender different figures than they provided to New York City tax authorities. The discrepancies made the buildings appear more profitable to the lender — and less profitable to the officials who set the buildings’ property tax.

    For instance, Trump told the lender that he took in twice as much rent from one building as he reported to tax authorities during the same year, 2017. He also gave conflicting occupancy figures for one of his signature skyscrapers, located at 40 Wall Street.

    Lenders like to see a rising occupancy level as a sign of what they call “leasing momentum.” Sure enough, the company told a lender that 40 Wall Street had been 58.9% leased on Dec. 31, 2012, and then rose to 95% a few years later. The company told tax officials the building was 81% rented as of Jan. 5, 2013.

    A dozen real estate professionals told ProPublica they saw no clear explanation for multiple inconsistencies in the documents. The discrepancies are “versions of fraud,” said Nancy Wallace, a professor of finance and real estate at the Haas School of Business at the University of California-Berkeley. “This kind of stuff is not OK.”

    New York Changes Law So It Can Still Prosecute Those With Presidential Pardons

    “No one is above the law and New York will not turn a blind eye to criminality, no matter who seeks to protect them,” Cuomo said in a statement Wednesday. “The closure of this egregious loophole gives prosecutors the ability to stand up against any abuse of power, and helps ensure that no politically motivated, self-serving action is sanctioned under law.

    When two financial documents making representations from the same source about the same thing differ, either one is lies or both are lies.
    It is impossible for them both to be true. It is probable that both are lies given his fraudulent nature, and that is two counts of fraud, one to the tax man,
    one fraud on his lender. It would be interesting to know if the documents were prepared by the same source below Trump somewhere along the line. Because that will
    be the hook. That entity or person will be pinched hard to turn on the fat pig. But ultimately he is responsible for the representations he made in financial
    documents.

    Trump is fucked and going to jail, as he should.

    I think a lot of our fact-challenged RW friends are confused about how the whole tax return thing works. Basically, once you sign it, you have agreed that what is on it is true. It doesn't matter whether you filled it out, did it on-line, or had an accountant fill it out. If the data contained in it is erroneous, either accidentally or deliberately, that's on you. You likely will escape with just a penalty and maybe a fine if the mistake was accidental and you can prove that. Otherwise -- especially if they start looking at your other returns and finding a pattern -- you're toast. Doesn't matter if you're Joe the Plumber or Donald the Pretend Emperor.

    Two sets of books is a certain indication of fraud. Trump bragged about beating taxes. Now we see how. Cohen told about the 2 sets in the trial, under oath.

    And that's not his problem. His problem is that he falsified documents at a lending institution in order to obtain a loan. He might have offered 'doctored' tax returns in order to make his investment income look better.

    That too, is illegal. Of course, who knows if there are ramifications if he did it with Putin's banks?
