The court-appointed monitor overseeing Donald Trump's businesses told a judge on Friday that the former president's financial information has contained "incomplete" or "inconsistent" disclosures containing "errors."
"I have identified certain deficiencies in the financial information that I have reviewed, including disclosures that are either incomplete, present results inconsistently, and/or contain errors," former federal judge Barbara Jones, tasked with scrutinizing the former president's business empire, wrote in a 12-page letter.
Though she described Trump and his businesses as "cooperative" with her investigation, Jones added that "information required to be submitted to me pursuant to the terms of the monitorship order and review protocol has, at times, been lacking in completeness and timeliness."

I'm just gonna say it, I think theres a fat chance 65% of businesses in America are run like this dude does it. The one I work for is. Its why they worship him.
Either fat chance means the opposite of what you think it means, or I don't understand your post.
Lol that and the choice of an oddly moderate percentage makes the statement impossible to interpret.
Too bad they failed to include a double/triple negative to really hammer down the confusion.
65% is more than half. Thats massive if more than half of all business in the US are being run illegitimately.
It is massive, but 35% would seem massive as well. So it's still impossible to interpret.
I find it more useful in determining why people support the current right-wing political climate in the US. Not as a way for determining the number of corrupt businesses. If you see some business mogul, all the way down to the lowly millionaires, and they absolutely love Trump, chances are they are involved in shady business practices.
I beat this drum a lot, but I gotta point out that a “millionaire” is a couple with a $300k house you’re still paying for, $350k in retirement savings each, 2 paid off cars and kids in public schools. They’re worth a million, but they aren’t the ones dodging taxes, engaging in shitty business practices, and not necessarily voting for trump.
Because that’s us and a bunch of people I know. We’re 10%-ers and I can tell you that being a millionaire is solid AF middle class.
And that’s completely fucked up. You shouldn’t have to be in the top 10% to have a “normal” life. Oh, and fuck trump. They throw “shady” people in my league in jail or fine the shit out of them if they get caught. The real rich fuckers get away with everything. They just pay lawyers instead of fines.
My bad, you're right I meant multimillionaire. People that own multiple properties and do everything they can to keep the most profit. People that lock down businesses as boards while still mingling in operations to ensure their will stays imposed. Enough is never enough for them.
No worries at all. It’s just a conversation I wish this country would have. A millionaire isn’t squat anymore. It offers a normal life. You need many millions to be actually rich.
Which is crazy. My bank account has 4 digits in it, and its on the lower side of that.
Sorry I meant like fat. Like the chance is big. My language meter is forever broken.
My GF's boss to her when she said she didn't want to be in a managerial position for their company:
"I guess you don't have the entrepreneurial spirit!"
Meanwhile they're paying salaries using money from equipment subventions and using money from said subventions as proof that they have liquidity to get more subventions... They don't hire labourers because it's cheaper to use technicians for which they get 85% of the wage back (subventions again) and make them work as labourers...
To my understanding having an entrepreneurial spirit (literally means the mind for enterprise) would mean yr girl would be leaving to start her own company, not sticking around someone else's.
Maybe dumbfucko grant cheat she calls a boss meant ambitious. Ambitious like, y'know, Janel Grant, right?
My original message lacked some context, she's basically left on her own to expand the business in a new direction when she was originally hired to do research and offer the new services to the clients. So she doesn't care that she doesn't have the entrepreneurial spirit because her goal isn't to run or start a business (even though she was self employed and making good money just two years ago), but being told that by her two bosses that clearly can't run a business by following any type of rules and that have had to skip paycheques in the past (before her time)? That's insulting as fuck.
Real estate is notoriously like this, it's basically all rich guys doing minor crimes daily. And the occasional major crime.
