His enemies, the democRATS, their Leftist media and the GOPe RINOs do. So they can pick them apart and go after Trump endlessly.

Nobody else gives a sh*t.

Kristoff is allied with and a mouthpiece for the inner circle of the leftist Trump haters. Not a peep out of him for the last eight years. Just another no-principled leftist.

These folks keep dividing America and when it breaks we must choose reporters and Democrats to target.

Someone should make a fake tax return and forward it to this clown in a Manila envelope with no return address and a D.C. Postmark and see if he publishes it.

I’m betting he would since the NYT is Fake News Central.

********

Include some bogus expense for Moscow prostitutes or some other ridiculous entry. Bet they’d get fooled and publish it.

You are trusting the Obama Administration too much. They have proven they are not trustworthy. I believe the IRS already leaked the Trump tax returns to the Democrats because why else would they have been pushing to have Trump release them for over a year. THEY ALREADY KNOW WHAT IS IN THEM. And they think it is something that will embarrass Trump when the American people learn of it.

Folks here are calling this conspiracy to commit a felony. To this non-lawyer it sounds more like solicitation of a felony. But I’d also think that should be actionable. Solicitation of murder, solicitation of prostitution, etc. don’t require the solicited crime to actually occur to be criminal. However they’re probably separate entities in the criminal code. First amendment provides for freedom on the press, but I doubt that means they have freedom to solicit crimes so as to have crimes to cover. Rather like crying “fire” in a theater, which could (and has) get folks injured or even killed in the following panic, there are some limits on the first amendment freedoms.

BTW, the presstitutes wouldn’t be hampered by the mountain of Trump tax paperwork. If its already digitized then it would fit on a flash drive or a CD or probably could be zipped and emailed. If still a paper pile there are scanners that could handle such mountains fairly quickly, then act as above.

Kristof is the guy who led the witch hunt against Steve Hatfield in 2001 after 5 people were killed by anthrax sent through the mail.

Apparently the reason he was singled out is that he had spent some time in Zimbabwe while it was still Rhodesia, and therefore had to be a bad guy.
