An IRS inquiry has revealed that former President Donald Trump may face a tax bill exceeding $100 million due to improper tax breaks claimed on his Chicago tower.

This dubious maneuver involved massive write-offs on the failed Chicago skyscraper, potentially leading to significant financial repercussions for Trump.
