Donald Trump paid no income tax during the final full year of his presidency as he reported a loss from his sprawling business interests, according to tax figures released by a congressional panel.
“If this injustice can happen to President Trump, it can happen to all Americans without cause,” Trump Organisation spokesman Steven Cheung said on Wednesday.
