I wonder if DT took a tax deduction for the non-sexual non-romantic payment to the porn star,

Stormy Daniels.

Maybe he paid her through his non-profit foundation.

Or maybe he paid it personally and wrote it off as some kind of business deduction. Maybe his income taxes would show lots of unexplained payments to people like Stormy.

One more reason he wouldn't make them public.
