Nancy Pelosi takes aim at Trump’s taxes
NY Post ^ | 12/13/18 | By Joe Tacopino

Nancy Pelosi said on Thursday that a House committee will “take the first steps” toward obtaining President Trump’s tax returns once Democrats take control of the House.

Pelosi, who is expected to become the Democrats’ next speaker of the House, said the process could be “challenging” as Trump has vowed to resist their requests.

“There is popular demand for the Congress to request the president’s tax returns,” Pelosi told reporters.

“I’m sure the White House will resist, so the question is, ‘Where do we go from there?’”

Well Tinkles, what is good for the goose is good for the gander. I recall a large number of Congressmen who owe millions. Pay up.

What’s it like in your rubber room? Are the nurses nice? Is there green grass to walk on when they let you outside?

I mean, just wanting to see them isn't going to hold water in a court of law.

Of course, you know why they want them. It's to pore over them in the hope (if not expectation) of finding some hint of illegality.

You wrote “...she’s about to create the mother of all backlashes against her party.”

Let me explain: ARE YOU NUTS?

That is as likely to happen as is all the seditionists, treasonists and plotters going to prison.

Instead of concentrating on the people's business it will be Resist Trump!! 24/7.

This TDS gets a bit boring after a while but should lead to some interesting sound bites for the 2020 elections.

And speaking of transpa, I demand a list of the congressmen who’ve made sexual harassment settlements and the amount of PUBLIC money paid.

“...and hopes Trump will give them up voluntarily”

Or what? If a president does not feel compelled to reveal tax information the nosey are SOL.

With the amount of leakage in government I certainly would not feel compelled to share information that is protected by law.

Legally speaking, presidents are not legally bound to present their taxes. Financial activity is submitted for security clearances, but only to check if the individual is hiding any financial income.

I think tax info should remain protected by law and not be generally obtainable by whim.

I think we have a failure to communicate here. I didn't mean a backlash from Democrat voters. I meant a backlash from normal voters.

Make sense now?
