Trump paid $38 million Tax on $150 million income

US President Donald Trump paid 38 million dollars tax on more than 150 million dollars income in 2005, a leaked tax return reveals. Two pages of the tax return were revealed by US TV network MSNBC, triggering an angry response from the White House. It said publishing the tax return was illegal. Mr Trump refused to release his tax returns during the election



campaign, breaking with a long-held tradition. 

The two pages were a fraction of the complete return and did not include details of Mr Trump's income. Correspondents say the leak is still significant because so little is known about President Trump's tax returns and the new information will increase pressure on him to release more.
