Tax return disclosure requests are a communist device to get people arguing over who should be paying taxes rather than the size of government, or how to increase tax revenues by private sector growth. Frightened Republicans usually cave in to such nonsense.
The corrupt IRS would have gone after Trump like Bill Clinton on bimbos had there been any chance of finding something illegal.
So, to the liberals, none of your effin business. Get back to what you do best: lie, cheat, and get do nothing jobs worthy of your box top college studies.
Irrelevant “news”. Why should we care? We don’t.
Can someone explain to me what the great need for tax returns are? I would imagine few people except big time tax lawyers would have any chance of even a small understanding of Trumps tax returns. So 99 percent of most people would be clueless. Basically what would happen would be competing talking heads some pro Trump some anti- Trump would be on TV spinning the returns in their particular direction and in the end NOTHING changes!
The press plans to scrutinize PRESIDENT TRUMP’S taxes to see if he is ‘benefiting’ financially while serving as President - an impeachable offense. He should NEVER produce his tax records.
It wouldn’t surprise me if they were “accidentally” leaked to the press by a disgruntled (and well paid) IRS employee.
I don’t think anybody has the right to another person’s tax return. People need to mind their own business. Didn’t Obama’s IRS teach other how abusive this practice is.
Original birth certificates and college records, and social Security card proof are actually more important and reasonable.
I guess he changed his mind. Kind of like the media, for about 12 hours in the wake of the election, decided they screwed up covering Trump.
Now, they’re back to defamation and lying again.
Anybody is entitled to change their mind. He was sincere when he said he would release them. Just changed his mind so there is no dishonesty.
FReeper Doughty One postulated the brilliant reason why Trump should not release his taxes......b/c all of Trump's business contacts would have their privacy invaded.
As soon as Hillary releases ALL of her emails.
Don't be surprised if a "lone" IRS agent decides to leak them anyway. Would not surprise me.
Excellent! That should have been the answer right from the start!
Yes, good! But more red meat for the pack of liberal wolves.
Huh?
Since when are customers and vendors names detailed on a tax return? Have you ever filed?
Not really. President Trump didn't give them anything to chew on. He left them to snarl, grumble, and snap at everything that moves.
They're still hungry -- ha ha!
( Off Topic --- I am so happy to once again be able to put the prefix, 'President', before the name of the current White House occupant's name! )
“Since when are customers and vendors names detailed on a tax return? Have you ever filed?”
What a STUPID question!
Yes, vendors are contained within corporate tax returns. I guess you’ve never filed a corporate return.
Don’t be an ass.
When you’re damned if you do and damned if you don’t, then may as well go with don’t.
I was hoping for this. Tax returns are private, there are plenty of public financial disclosures required of candidates and public officials.
