An accountant for former President Trump has testified that the former president reported major losses on his tax returns every year for a decade, including a $700 million loss in 2009. 

The Associated Press reported on Wednesday that Donald Bender, who has served as Trump’s accountant and prepared Trump’s personal tax returns for years, testified in the criminal tax fraud trial against the Trump Organization that Trump lost money in every year from 2009 to 2018. 

The losses include net operating losses from some of the businesses he owns through the Trump Organization. 

“There are losses for all these years,” Bender said. 

Bender was granted immunity to testify at the trial.
