A judge in New York City has imposed a fine of $2 million on the Trump Corporation and Trump Payroll Corporation for illegally reducing payroll liability. The sentencing was the result of a conviction last month for 17 tax crimes and serves as a reminder of the importance of paying taxes and following the law.
