Republicans on Trump Tax Returns: Democrats ‘May Regret It Sooner Than They Think’
Breitbart ^ | 12/30/2022 | Joel B Pollack

Posted on 12/30/2022 12:27:52 PM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Republicans in the minority on the U.S. House Ways and Means Committee declared Friday that there had been “no legitimate legislative purpose” for the Democratic majority to release Donald Trump’s tax returns.

It was the first time Congress had ever obtained and released the federal tax returns of a private individual. Democrats claimed that they needed the returns as they considered future tax legislation. But the former president argued in court — to no avail — that Democrats were overstepping the separation of powers.

The GOP surrenders, they only pretend to fight if they even bother to do that much.

Let's see if Biden and Hunter listed their payoffs from China. The 'big guy's' cut was big - we want to know HOW BIG. Spread the tax returns out...

Release the returns over every member of the Biden family, every Democrat member of the House and Senate and every member of Biden’s cabinet. See how they like that.

For good measure, include the top 1000 members of the liberal press, the head of every liberal Non-Profit Organization, the partners of every politically aligned law firm and the CEO’s of all the woke corporations.

Not quite.

He had the best tax accountants money could buy. His taxes pose no risk to him.

He objected because first, they are private and their release would be an abuse of his privacy.

Secondly, they showed his business connections. Those connections will now be targeted for abuse.

These abuse incidents of Trump and his connections make us all very angry.

But stay cool, what goes around, comes around.

“May Regret It Sooner Than They Think”

I for one would love to see the full unedited, unredacted tax returns of every member of the J6 committee, the tax returns of “the squad”, the tax returns of nazi pelosi, schumer, feinstein, etc.

In fact, since precedent has now been set, let’s see obama’s, bush’s, and clinton’s tax returns while we’re at it.

Meanwhile, Republicans aren’t even discussing eliminating election fraud. The Dems, with the help of republicans, will win the WH, the Senate and the House in 2024. It’s over I’m afraid.

Exactly. If there is anything I have learned since I became more politically aware, it’s that Repub’s talk a big game, and they almost never deliver.
It’s only the Dim’s that don’t pull punches. Those bastards will monkey stomp your head into the ground.

Instead of shooting their mouths off they need to shut up and do it.

"The only reason for this is that dems passionately hate Trump and plan to use the returns against him."

Since they released them on a Friday, while Congress is on their year-end vacation, and Republicans will be in the majority in a new session, it means there is nothing in them to use against him.

Democrats are going to beat that dead Trump horse until the very last day they are in control of Congress. I’m not big on turning the other cheek. Payback starts next week with fresh meat Hunter horse who will be beat until he is a dead horse and I would encourage them to keep whipping the carcass over the next 2 years
