Title was truncated. Full title is:Supreme Court temporarily halts court order requiring accountants to turn over Trump’s tax returns to Congress
When it goes to the Supremes, Trump usually wins.
It sets an awful precedent if granted.
It makes the IRS a political investigation arm.
It’s not in America’s interest to have the President subjected to witch hunts originating from the States.
Well, perhaps PDJT tweeted something intimidating to the supremes? LOL!
OK, can someone please explain to me this obsession with Trump’s tax returns?
What do they intend to prove anyway?
If there were any anomalies or violations of the tax codes, isn’t it the job of the IRS to flag this?
And if the IRS discovered anything wrong, isn’t it the business of the Trump organization to settle this with the IRS and nobody else’s?
Seems an overly broad fishing request given the allegations they are looking into.
Anyone know why only temporarily? Does the SCOTUS need a full hearing before making a final decision?

No, you do not have the right to demand tax information from anyone, and the president is no exception. That information is provided to the IRS for the purpose of paying taxes. You do not have the right to see it. There is an inherent expectation of privacy in it.
If I were Trump, I would have said that, and refused to comply.
Their hatred knows no bounds. I’m hoping it leads to their downfall.
Turning them over to Congress is different than turning them over to the NY AG.
Worst place anyone would want their tax returns to go is Congress but if they get Trump’s then Trump can get theirs
When you have a business empire like Trump, the neighborhood H&R Block isn’t doing his taxes......He’s dealing with big time tax attorneys.........

Q: was RBG there??
Bttt
Whether requiring Trump to release tax returns to on a primary ballot, or trying to force him to release tax returns for political reasons, it is all wrong.
I have no problem with a court requiring the release of a tax return if it is to be used in a criminal trial, but is must be kept confidential to everyone but the jury. Taxes are not to be released unless so directed by the taxpayer, they are not public record documents.
Weird
I could swear I heard that completely differently on the news
The dims..who no doubt scorn such things as the Salem witch trials are now the modern day equivalent...?
If I were PDJT I would just release the tax returns and dare the Left to find any irregularities. The longer Trump delays releasing his tax returns the more it looks like he has something to hide. He may not have anything to hide, but that is how it will appear to the average low-information voter.
