IVANA’S GRAVE WAS A TRUMP TAX DODGE!
PENNY-PINCHING Donald Trump buried his first wife, Ivana — who died July 14 at 73 after a fall in her home — on his New Jersey golf course to cut his tax bill, researchers charge!
By plopping the former GLOBE advice columnist’s body in a “sad little plot of dirt” near the first tee on his Bedminster golf club, the miserly former prez can take advantage of a New Jersey loophole giving “cemeteries” a pass on tens of thousands of dollars in taxes, an expert claims!
“I checked the NJ tax code & folks, it’s a trifecta of tax avoidance. Property, income and sales tax, all eliminated,” tweets Dartmouth professor Brooke Harrington. Trump, 76, previously designated the plot as a tax-busting “farm” that avoids certain levies in return for producing gardening mulch. He didn’t respond to the allegations and his family never revealed why the beloved Manhattan socialite was planted in the Garden State, which she often mocked.
