Donald Trump Backers Say He's a 'Genius' if He Didn't Pay Taxes

Donald Trump surrogates took to the Sunday morning talk shows to insist that the businessman possibly not paying federal income taxes for almost 20 years would have been both brilliant and responsible.

Less than 24 hours after the New York Times reported on Trump's partial tax return from 1995, New Jersey Governor Chris Christie and former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani both defended the Republican presidential nominee's use of the tax code.
