Trump Again Gets Tax Break for Earning Less Than $500K

“Donald Trump’s New York City property-tax bill, published June 3, shows he once again received a tax break aimed at middle-class New Yorkers,” Crain’s New York Business reports.

“The presumptive GOP presidential nominee’s latest property-tax bill shows he was awarded a credit under the STAR program, or the New York State School Tax Relief Program. To be eligible for STAR, a married couple must have annual income of $500,000 or less. You wouldn’t think a guy as rich as Trump claims to be would qualify, but he has received the credit for several years and records filed over the weekend with the city’s Department of Finance show he received a $304 STAR tax break for his Trump Tower penthouse.”
