Did chump bury Ivana on his golf course for tax breaks?

Every time I think I can’t be disgusted by this orange menace, he goes even further to prove me wrong.

Ivana Trump was buried near the first hole of Trump National Golf Club. Her gravesite could offer tax breaks for the business.

The location of Ivana Trump's grave — near the first hole of the golf course at Trump National Golf Club — may have tax implications for the business owned by the former president.

Tax documents from the Trump Family Trust, published by ProPublica, show the trust sought to designate a property in Hackettstown, New Jersey, as a non-profit cemetery company, though the course itself is 20 miles away in Bedminster.

Ivana Trump, former President Donald Trump's ex-wife, is the first person known to have been buried at the Trump-owned golf course.

Under New Jersey state tax code, any land that is dedicated to cemetery purposes is exempt from all taxes, rates, and assessments. Cemetery companies are also specifically exempt from paying any real estate taxes, rates, and assessments or personal property taxes on their lands, as well as business taxes, sales taxes, income taxes, and inheritance taxes.

seems to me a family plot might be different than someone not legally related.

over Ivana's body. Donald Trump never does anything for any reason other than money or to inflate his bloated ego.

the grave is a fake and she is not buried there. Trump can't do anything without lying and breaking the law.
