Delta Skirts Trump Tariffs by Sending Airbus Jets on World Tour
Delta Air Lines Inc. is sidestepping millions of dollars in U.S. tariffs on European jetliners by initially routing them far outside the country to such places as Amsterdam, Tokyo and El Salvador. The U.S. carrier has taken delivery of seven European-built Airbus SE planes since President Donald Trump’s levies took effect in October 2019. Rather than flying them home as it had in the past, Delta has based the aircraft overseas. The decision, coupled with the definition of new planes in the… (www.msn.com) Plus d'info...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Delta did this with their deliveries from Boeing and McDonnell Douglas in the 1990s too. When purchased, they were flown to outside the U.S., and then the transfer of ownership was accomplished in a special flight that circled in international airspace. Once the signatures were completed, the aircraft flew back to departure airport. It's next flight was to the U.S. as a revenue flight.
not mentioned in the article; Where were they registered. Can't claim them as used with a brand new US tail number.
And I quote from 2016 Presidential debate:
“The only years that anybody’s ever seen were a couple of years when he had to turn them over to state authorities when he was trying to get a casino license, and they showed he didn’t pay any federal income tax,” Clinton said.
Trump quickly retorted: “That makes me smart.”

You are aware, there is no requirement for a political candidate to disclose tax returns? There's a very specific federal statute to that effect. And, to also address the effort by House Democraps to obtain his returns, there was once an opinion written by deputy attorney general named John Haron. He was appointed by Jimmy Carter.
Finally, there is the issue of California passing a law to demand tax returns of political candidates. That won't fly, either, by the time it gets to the USSC and should be stopped at the Ninth Circus Appeals bench. A certain judge once opined on the sanctity of privacy of tax returns when she sat on the DC appeals bench. Her name... Ruth Ginsberg.
Oh, and there is no demand one pay more in taxes than is legally required by the written code. And, anyone who does is a fool.

All that is informative but totally irrelevent. Trump LOST. But before he LOST, he created a tax with a basic loop hole that Delta found and exploited. Smart and legal!
Trump may keep his taxes private but that won't keep him out of jail. Dont forget to donate his defense campaign!

What crime did Trump commit?
Was it as bad as violating the Espionage Act as was done by Clinton and Obama? Yes, they did so by using an illegal email server to transmit and store classified data.
How about her repeated lies before Congress, under oath, about Benghazi?
I can go on.
So, take your liberal BS and go perform a physical impossibility upon yourself. You're probably one of those who thinks a Flight Review is limited to only one hour. Oh, wait. You don't mention holding any tickets. So, you're probably a wannabe who should never be in control of a snow sled, much less an aircraft in flight.

R-i-ight, another pilot with a god complex. Yippeee!
And you must think this is your platform and having tickets is the only qualifier here. I don't have any pilots licenses. But i do have a couple flight crews that do.

I'm must a lowly flight instructor who has been flying since 1981 and I read more than the average liberal idiot.
Perhaps you should learn to do so as well.
