(10,749 posts)Did the lawyer send this letter via certified mail? That seems important to the chief buffoon.
Also, is the lawyer related to the buffoon's "greatest health ever" doctor?
And on a more serious note. Parse the lawyer's statement carefully. No income from any entity the buffoon in chief controls. But what of income from entities he does not control? If he has a 49.9% interest in an entity generating $1 billion in income, that's still a hefty income. Or maybe he has a 5% stake in 200 entities, each generating income of $10 million. You get the idea. At the service academies, this is called quibbling, and I believe it's cause for dismissal.

(33,747 posts)income is not the same as investments.
And income from US property, built with Russian money is not income from Russian sources. it is income from US sources made possible with Russian $$.
