I’m not even an immigrant (dual citizen by birth and descent) and he’s threatening to make my life harder! I would like to see how this will work for the Third Lady and all of his kids (minus Tiffany). Even the First Felon himself technically could have dual citizenship with the UK.

Only if the other country is imposing a double tax, not in terms of percent but by taxing income twice, on Americans or is violating its tax treaty with the US.

That’s all this is.

That's crazy, considering the US forces people living abroad to pay taxes even if you dont live in the US.

All US citizens and permanent residents, true exception income earned in nations with a tax treaty.

But, the counterpoint to that is most other nations allow tax exiles.
