a new business will show several years of losses before paying taxes on income.

Millionaires frequently will make an investment in say a shopping center or factory and will show a loss
even though they had several million in income. The government allows these deductions because it
stimulates the economy and provides jobs which pay taxes.

Trump is audited almost every year. We would know by now if he is evading taxes.
