DKW 86 7,410 Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 We 100% agree on this. Tax records are facts and cannot be disputed much if at all. I have ZERO problem believing that Trump is 100% guilty of fraud and tax evasion for financial dealings. Once the tax records are released, I predict Trumps base deserts him. Whatever is in there must be that horrible to be seen by the public that SCOTUS had to step in, if temporarily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’ll claim they are falsified and they’ll believe it. Got some of those folks here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

homersapien 11,352 Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 No way Trump's base deserts him when they discover he cheated on his taxes. To the contrary, he will become even more of a hero and messiah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexava 6,973 Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Most people don’t understand his taxes. Especially his base. So you can show them whatever you want and then he will give some kind of tweet claiming the IRS are all a bunch of never-trumpers and his base will insert their heads deeper into his anal cavity.

Well we already have people who immediately dismiss any poll they don't like out of hand, so I'm sure they'd immediately lap up any claims that they were falsified from their Golden Calf without question.

Some hypothetical situation where Obama was as obtuse as Trump and decided to hide his tax returns from public view so we can all wonder how it would have played out in reverse? That's silly. We are only here because Trump is the first president in a long, long time to fail to do this. Obama released his returns so the point is moot. If Trump had done the same, we wouldn't be in this situation. What sort of pretzel logic is this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couId care less and didn't even vote for the fool. They are meaningless. It's called transparency. It's the reason presidential candidates have released them for decades. The power they're being entrusted with is immense. Many of the men who are in position to be president have considerable wealth and investments and such. The economic decisions they will make alone can have huge impacts on portfolios and interests across the nation. We should be able to trust that the person in that position has nothing to hide. It's not "butthurt." It's that to whom much is given, much is required. When we give someone this level of power and responsibility, it comes with a level of scrutiny and transparency that the average citizen doesn't have to subject themselves to. If you don't care, don't bother reading them when they come out. Don't read stories commenting on them. But don't act like it's meaningless just because you don't care.
