If Trump has EVER mentioned taxing capital gains at the same rate as labor, please post a quote. I think you're badly mistaken. The 'carried interest' loophole isn't the same thing. It's something guys like Mitt Romney lobbied for and took advantage of. Both Hillary and Trump were going to remove that.

The things Trump takes advantage of are real estate and real estate developer loopholes, which are probably the biggest single group of whopping tax advantages in America today. I'm sure even i-node will confirm that.

Carried interest, or carry, in finance, is a share of the profits of an investment paid to the investment manager in excess of the amount that the manager contributes to the partnership, specifically in alternative investments (private equity and hedge funds).
