I don't recollect Buffet coming out this strong on politics.
I know, I know, I am quoting NewsMax, but here's the summary.
On tax return:
“Now I’ve got news for him. I'm under audit, too, and I would be delighted to meet him anyplace, anytime, before the election."
“I'll bring my tax return, he can bring his tax return ... and let people ask us questions about the items that are on there.
On Bankruptcy:
Mocked Trump’s claims of business success, noting that Trump has declared bankruptcy six times with businesses financed with borrowed money.
When Trump sold stock directly to the public was in 1995 (the only time):
"If a monkey had thrown a dart, at the stock page, the monkey on average would've made 150 percent. But the people that believed in him, who listened to his siren song, ended up losing well over 90 cents in the dollar. They got back less than a dime,"
"In the next 10 years, the company loses money every year, every single year, and he takes out $44 million in compensation during that period,"
Trump's reaction on Khizr Khan's speech:
“No member of the Buffett family has gone to Iraq or Afghanistan. No member of the Trump family has gone to Iraq or Afghanistan. We’ve both done extremely well during this period and our families haven’t sacrificed anything.
How in the world can you stand up to a couple of parents who lost a son and talk about sacrificing because you were building a bunch of buildings?"
