Honestly, Trump leaking a portion of his own tax returns wouldn't surprise, he has played the media plenty of times in the past. I've seen dozens of the media's stories on Trump backfiring on them over the past year, so either there's intelligent design behind it, or the craziest luck ever.

Scott Adams opined today that President Trump is bayoneting the final survivors of the Great November Media massacre.

He finished off Maddow yesterday... 😀

Had DJT openly released that tax return, it would have been pounced upon and waved about to “prove” anything the left wants to charge regardless of the content. The theory which has been in play for many years is that if you are wildly indignant about something and cry “crime! and xxxxphobia! and hate! then it doesn’t matter what the reality is or even how obvious it is. People will only hear the rage and many will be at least a bit uncomfortable about whatever the subject of calumny is. This worked out differently because they thought they stole the paper and they just knew it would show he had paid no taxes. If Maddow had not revealed the content but had just waved the paper about and looked very smug and yelled about filthy capitalists who don’t pay taxes it might still have been effective. However, she didn’t read the two pages before she trumpeted them and her certain knowledge of what they contained caused her to divulge the contents and it shocked her and everyone else on the left. They didn’t react properly and shot off all their toes.
