Donald Trump defended his tax practices Monday in the wake of a New York Times report on tax returns from 1995 citing a $916 million loss, which experts say he could have potentially used to wipe out his income tax liability for as much as the next 18 years.<br />“As a businessman and real estate developer, I have legally used the tax laws to my benefit,” Trump said during a Pueblo, Colorado rally.<br />“I was able to use the tax laws of this country and my business acumen to dig out of the real estate mess…when few others were able to do.”
