Debra Messing is a headline reader.
In fact, anyone pretending they pay more in taxes (or claiming they won’t pay their taxes until the president does) is admitting they just read headlines. In the very NYT story itself about Trump’s tax returns, they admit the $750 he paid was AFTER already paying in several millions of dollars.
But that didn’t stop Debra from making a nob of herself on Twitter:
I’m not paying my taxes until the President does.
Whose with me? #TaxFraudTrump https://t.co/lHphYITEqJ

We hate to be that person but ahem … it’s ‘who’s’.
Not whose.
Ok, so we don’t really hate to be that person, we just said that to be nice.
Like you did anyway. Shut up.

Did she just admit she didn’t pay her taxes?
He paid what he owed, so…your turn, apparently.

Do you owe taxes? Then you should pay yours. If you also don’t owe taxes in a given year then I’d say not paying them is a solid plan. You see, it’s contingent on if you legally owe taxes.

It’s not tax fraud, to pay your taxes based on the tax code Joe Biden and Kamala Harris helped write and pass into law! It is however against the law to not pay your taxes at all Debra…

So he paid $4.2M in 2017, according to the NYT report. How much did you pay? Will you also donate $400K per year in salary to the US Treasury?

Hey, look, someone who actually read the article. Novel concept.
The best part is that y’all are hating the player, not the game – of which he had nothing to do with making the rules.
He exposed something y’all are unhappy with yet the true source of the angst are the tax laws his accountants followed

Sounds good. Nice to see that you now understand that taxation is theft.
