White House to Democrats seeking Trump tax returns: 'Never'
Reuters ^ | 04-07-19 | Doina Chiacu

President Donald Trump’s tax returns will never be handed over to Democratic lawmakers, White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney said on Sunday, defying an effort in Congress to learn more about the real estate mogul’s personal finances.Asked on “Fox News Sunday” if congressional Democrats will succeed in obtaining the Republican president’s tax returns, Mulvaney said: “No, never. Nor should they.” He dismissed an effort to obtain the returns, launched on Wednesday by U.S. House of Representatives tax committee Chairman Richard Neal, as a political ploy from Democrats who will never stop attacking Trump.

Do you think for a second the desperate Leftists who now control the Democrat/Left Party will accept that “No” means “No”? Of course not. I don’t think even a “no effing way” would work with them.

He should have added...”they can go eat a bag of d*cks”.

He should say something like, “What? Don’t you Democrats trust the IRS? I’ve been audited and had my taxes reviewed enough by the professionals...don’t need preening politicians snooping, and that’s all they’d be doing.”

I want to see all the 537 tax returns. Not #1’s. He became a billionaire by buy and sell real estate, not on a 537’s salary and yet the large portion of the 537 are multi millionaires just on a Gov’t paycheck? Makes one wonder they want to throw stones. The President is working free. WTF are they doing?

How does “Molon labe” work as a challenge?

Defending to the death the right to privacy approaches the level of being a sacred duty.

Molon labe, meaning “come and take [them]”, is a classical expression of defiance. A very laconic phrase.

If an example may be plucked from history to compare Donald Trump with, King Leonidas comes to mind.

The DemonCRAPs and their nitwit Chicken “D” Peckers can all go pound sand. The 4th Amendment is still the law of the land.

The ‘Rats don’t want the returns at all. Actually, they prefer NOT to have them. They only want the campaign issue.

Someone leaked one year of his tax returns to MSNBC...

He paid $35 million in taxes that year.

Just a hunch but I think obama made sure to grab his returns as soon as he came down the escalator.

Seems to me if Congressional Dems want Trump’s tax returns all they need do is ask Rachel Maddow or CNN for them. They have been fishing for a longer period in the same pond as them . Unfortunately all they have been able to come up with was the embarrassment of him paying his taxes. Who knows, eventually if they fish long enough they’ll catch a bass.....or perhaps Steele has a dossier in the wings that Dems can present to the court as a foundation for getting his returns.

Like the congress crooks are going to report bribery income on their tax returns. That involves cash deposited into offshore accounts.

From what I understand they’re are still getting rich from insider-trading.
