He should have coughed them up just like all the presidents before him. What’s to hide? They’re just tax returns.

He was the first businessman to ever occupy the office (at least since they started releasing the documents), so there's that. He owns a private multi billion $ company, any public financial disclosure could impact his ability to earn once he leaves office. This was actually how America was supposed to work, private citizens give back to the country by taking elective office, spend their time there and then go back to their jobs.

Except dipshit attempts to use the office for personal gain at every single opportunity. I'm really glad you brought up how things are "supposed" to work. That's why we have the Emoluments Clause.

That's funny, when every President not named Bush is 100x better off financially now as compared to when they took office. Why is that? Hell, AOC in now worth 3 million when a year ago, she was asking for donations to help her live until her salary kicked in.

Another liberal actually quoted some source that showed that Trumps property's are actually losing money due to his unpopularity. Which one is it?

Whomp whomp, Carter never released his taxes either! He released his returns while he was in office, not prior too

That isn’t to say the fad caught on immediately. Gerald Ford, who became president when Nixon resigned, never released a full return—although he did opt to make public a decade’s worth of summary data for the years between 1966 and 1975. During the 1976 campaign, his opponent Jimmy Carter didn’t provide his returns either, giving Ford the transparency edge. However, America deemed his pardon for Nixon a more crucial issue and voted out the man who had never been voted in. Once Carter became president, he began to release his returns annually, a tradition that persisted until nearly the present day.

peanut farm=Trump Organization (pretty funny) and actually, he did not supply his income taxes until after he took office and only then it was for the years that he was in office. That's a little different than what you want from Trump.

You sure do live in a world of alternative facts.

Every U.S. president since Mr. Nixon has made his tax returns public, except for his immediate successor, Gerald Ford. Mr. Ford, who was appointed to the vice presidency after Spiro Agnew resigned in a tax fraud scandal, served out the last year and a half of Mr. Nixon’s term after he resigned due to Watergate. Mr. Ford lost the presidency in 1976 to Jimmy Carter, who campaigned on his reputation for honesty.

What happens first
a) Trump turns over tax returns
b) Don Jr. indicted (soon)
c) Mr. Country gets out of the hole digging business
d) None of the above ✅
I don’t think Trump turns anything over. Sounds like they’re released by NYS Dept of Taxation and Finance.

My son pays NYC taxes. If he were to quit paying taxes, he has to prove upon request that he is not living or working in the city for up to 5 years post departure. They are actually forcing citizens who have left the state to prove that they in fact did leave and are not just changing residence to skirt taxes and still hanging in the city. A couple of articles has shown that they audited credit card receipts and if they see that you bought groceries or other items showing that you still might live there, they are forcing them to pay taxes.

Frustration of defeat setting in for you.
No, just watching the media and Democrats prove everything Trump crows about with you all to be correct. There is literally nothing to be gained by getting his tax returns. What it’s doing though for anyone objectively looking at this is seeing the corruption of Democratic lawmakers weaponizing every aspect of the political process to attack opposition party personnel. What it’s also doing is seeing the MSM sell out to trounce him, which I’d be ok with if they brought forth the same level of scrutiny to the Dems. Again, proving Trump correct. Objective people who are interested in politics see this clearly. Those in the bubble do not.

Probably not much. But in the other hand, maybe there is.....

So you're telling me that the Obama IRS, that specifically targeted conservative groups, wouldn't have gone through Trump's returns with a fine tooth comb, and not done something if they find something inappropriate?

Come on... think.

The ONLY thing they would maybe find is something personally embarrassing, like either he's not worth what he claims, something we probably already know, or he's a cheapskate with charity.

Meanwhile, the left with pat themselves on the back, proclaim free **** for all (especially illegals), and then wonder whey they lose in 2020. :(

I’m not putting much stock in this.
