Trump online store pays state taxes in just 2 states: WSJ

President Donald Trump has been accusing online retailer Amazon of paying and collecting few state and local taxes, but his own company’s online store collects sales taxes in just two states, the Wall Street Journal reported Friday.

Although the Trump Organization is based in New York, TrumpStore.com collects sales taxes only in Florida and Louisiana, the Journal reported.

The website sells Trump-branded apparel and gifts, including $35 baseball caps, $20 body lotions, $50 blankets – and $36 Trump toddler polo shirts.

“Trumpstore.com has always, and will continue to collect, report, and remit sales taxes in jurisdictions where it has an obligation to do so,” a Trump Organization representative told CNBC.
