    US President Donald Trump has a Chinese bank
    account and spent years pursuing business projects
    in the country, the New York Times has reported.

    The account is controlled by Trump International
    Hotels Management and paid local taxes between
    2013 and 2015.

    The newspaper's previous reports show he paid $750
    (£580) in US federal taxes in 2016 and 2017, when
    he became president.

    The Chinese bank account has paid out $188,561 in
    local taxes.

    Donald Trump made up to $160 million from international
    business dealings while he was serving as president of
    the United States, according to an analysis of his tax
    returns by CREW.

    Throughout his time in office, President Trump, his
    family and his Republican allies repeatedly assured the
    public that his refusal to divest from his businesses
    wouldn’t lead to any conflicts of interest. Americans
    were promised that Trump would donate his salary, which
    he did, until maybe he didn’t—all while siphoning
    millions from taxpayers that more than offset his
    presidential pay. When it came to foreign conflicts of
    interest, Trump and his company pledged to pause
    foreign business. They did not.

    It's a big lie. Trump is broke, always was. You need to send him some now.

    Hello? That came out a couple years ago.

    https://www.nytimes.com/2020/10/20/us/trump-taxes-china.html

    And it turns out that China is one of only three foreign
    nations — the others are Britain and Ireland — where Mr.
    Trump maintains a bank account, according to an analysis
    of the president’s tax records, which were obtained by
    The New York Times. The foreign accounts do not show up
    on Mr. Trump’s public financial disclosures, where he
    must list personal assets, because they are held under
    corporate names.
