The New York Times’s explosive report on President Donald Trump’s years of alleged tax avoidance also exposed another secret: the cost of his coif.
The Times says Trump’s unmistakable hairdo is a five-figure affair.
The newspaper reports that when Trump hosted “The Apprentice,” he wrote off $70,000 in hairstyling costs; and that nine Trump entities have written off payments of close to $95,000 for “a favorite hair and makeup artist of Ivanka Trump .”
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), who was slammed in right-wing media over a haircut last year, noted that those same conservatives are silent over the president’s massive styling bill.
And she called them out for it:
The Times report says Trump paid $750 a year in taxes in 2016, another $750 in 2017, and despite his claims of being a successful businessman nothing at all in 10 of the previous years due to massive financial losses.
Trump called the report “fake news ” but has not revealed his taxes, despite repeated vows to do so.
