Why Donald Trump's Golf-Course Scheme May Be His Biggest Tax Dodge
A Forbes article by Dan Alexander, dated 11 November 2026, argues Donald Trump's golf courses could be his biggest tax dodge: he can call manicured fairways environmental preserves, donate development rights, and claim deductions worth up to 50% off his tax bill, with Forbes estimating $3.2 billion in potential write-offs dodging $1.2 billion in taxes. Alexander, who calls the $3 billion play Trump's legacy project, also notes Trump's liquidity has quadrupled to $1.9 billion and that he sold crashing cryptocurrency to supporters and watches bearing fragments of his booking suit.
