However, as he bids for another US Presidential run, these are not likely to have a major impact on his political career, experts reveal.

A legal fight that has lingered resulted to the disclosure of the tax records, a move that Trump has criticized, warning it will cause the divide in US politics to widen the more.

According to BBC:

The documents confirmed that Mr Trump paid no federal taxes in 2020 and only $750 (£622) in 2016 and 2017.

He paid close to $1m in 2018, however.

Trump further said, the returns “show how proudly successful I have been and how I have been able to use depreciation and various other tax deductions as an incentive for creating thousands of jobs and magnificent structures and enterprises.”
