President Trump denies New York Times report he paid only $750 in income taxes in 2016 and 2017. The New York Times, citing tax return data it obtained spanning two decades, said Trump paid no income taxes at all in 10 of the previous 15 years, "Largely because he reported losing much more money than he made." And the report said Trump paid $750 in federal income taxes in 2016, the year he won the presidency, and another $750 in 2017, his first year in office. The president dismissed the story as "Fake news" and said that details about his taxes would "All be revealed," but gave no timeline on when he would disclose his records. Ref. USAToday.
The easiest way to shed any doubt from the public is to simply share his tax returns which he has been battling even before becoming the president.

President Trump sidestepped a direct call during the debate to condemn white supremacists and militia groups. Moderator Chris Wallace asked President Donald Trump whether he was willing to condemn white supremacists and militia groups. "I’m willing to do that, but I would say almost everything I see is from the left wing, not from the right wing," Trump said. Trump has blamed the far left anti-fascist group known as antifa for violence at protests. FBI Director Christopher Wray said the movement is one of several ideologies driving clashes; another is white supremacists. Ref. USAToday.
Just as Joe Biden said… he is such a "Clown" that is the only way to describe his antics but I would say he is just a bully. Trump has nothing tangible to bring to the political debate so he deflects by speaking loud and not giving his opponent time to speak.
