Reid mocks Romney over Trump's taxes
Politico ^ | Feb 25 2016 | BURGESS EVERETT

Posted on 02/26/2016 6:45:30 AM PST by WilliamIII

Harry Reid spent months attacking Mitt Romney in 2012 for not releasing his tax returns. Now the Democratic leader is at it again, after Romney suggested this week there could be a "bombshell" in Donald Trump's tax returns.

An incredulous Reid mocked Romney's statements about Trump's taxes when the Nevadan was asked about them on Thursday.

"Ha, ha. (Romney) never gave us his tax returns. Who was the brainchild that got him to do that?" Reid said at a news conference."He gave us a summary. He never gave us his tax returns."

Beware of government lawyers who scoff at private citizens getting audited.

Reid is waiting for the nomination, if Trump gets it then Reid will play his usual Trump trick’s on Trump.

Make all sorts of accusations and call for Trump to prove himself innocent by making public information he would rather not.

So every debate and interview Trump is asked when he will release .....

Reid will still be in the Senate this fall where he has libel immunity,

The Republicans sit in D.C. oblivious to Clinton’s crimes.
Along comes Romney, attacking Trump when Trump will be the nominee. Some of these Republicans have no timing or common sense on how to win an election.

Mittens knows all about being an attack dog.

Which is why he folded like a cheap suit in front of Obama.

The rest is history.

DID THE OBAMA IRS LEAK TRUMPS TAX INFO TO MITTENS OR THE REPUBLICAN LEADERSHIP?

That’s the real question

It seems to me that the only ones worried about what Romney says are Democrats Reid and Trump. They can be ignored.

We’re onto Reid now. The more information any candidate releases, the more ammo we give Reid and the Dems. I would tell Reid to check with the IRS about the taxes. Otherwise he can shut up. I don’t think any of them should release their returns.

Reid is going to lie no matter what. Why play his game?

Romney needs to put up or shut up. Reid wants Trump, he knows he is malleable.

Reid is lying.

Romney's 2010 and 2011 tax returns are available here.

First thing I ever agreed on with Harry. Of course, he will rip on Trump if he is the nominee. But until then I will enjoy his beat down of that loser, Romney.

Harry Reid is such a pitiful, small minded, backstabbing, duplicitous little man.

In 2012 Reid pretended he had dirt on Romney, saying it was so hush-hush he couldn’t release the details or identify the source. Oh, but we could all trust him.

It was a total bluff and obvious lie, but Romney never fought back, not once - which did nothing to improve his image. So is he trying to pull the same clumsy maneuver now with Trump to trip him up? GOP marching orders??
