Trump’s disclosure report consists of two parts – one is 48 pages, the other 44.  The second part includes details of some of the entities in the first part but also includes other relationships not in part 1.

The disclosure report includes not only mortgages and ranges of loan amounts but names of lenders.  Lenders are only disclosed on tax returns if no 1098 was issued.  Disclosure reports also include positions held in various entities.  This information is not included in tax returns at all.

Tax returns may (likely in Trump’s case) include details on donations and specific dollar amounts where disclosure reports include ranges, so if someone wants to see exactly how much Trump made, wrote off, or paid in tax, the returns would be the place to go.  If someone is interested in potential conflicts of interest, i.e., knowing which boards he’s a member of or businesses he owns, the best place to look is the disclosure report.
