Nobody did or will do a damn thing about it so forever.

The part I like is how it's both routine and nobody else has ever been audited so much. Trump is the world champion of cognitive dissonance.

Somebody is trying to do something about it. Unfortunately Republicans have blocked Democrats on this about eight times already this year.

The best excuse IMO was the time(s?) Trump tried to convince a Bible belt audience that he gets audited every year because he's too Christian.

Those must be some of the nobodies who care about his taxes. Obviously all reporters planted in Congress seats and at Town halls.

Trump should just release them. It's not like his base will turn on him. They'll be insanely jelly he made so much money and paid so little taxes. If anything, it will probably boost his popularity for "sticking it to the man".

If it confirms that Trump was in cahoots with Russians, then it could lead to his impeachment.

Otherwise, release them.

He won't release them because it would show just how much his new tax plan would benefit him. Hint: A lot. We already sort of know this because of the Maddow tax returns.

Yea, that's the only reason not to do it.

Well yea, I know that. And you know that. But his base doesn't care. Hell, they love it.

Assuming Trump is rational (go ahead, lay it on me) then the consequence of releasing his taxes is obviously worse than the heat he's taking now. That includes the extra heat from tens of thousands of people marching in protest and surrogates having to awkwardly battle the media.

What's hidden in his tax returns is probably much bigger than just a few missing charitable donations.

He wants the IRS to commit to never audit him or his family again.

This negotiation tactic might just work. GOAT negotiator.

There's three (and only) three reasons why Trump wouldn't want to release tax returns:

1. Russian collusion
2. He is ashamed of the income
3. He uses aggressive tax minimization techniques and doesn't want those loopholes closed

Federal law states the President and Vice-President are audited every year.

Russian collusion isn't gonna be on his tax returns. His business corruption is mostly elsewhere.

He used to money launder for them tho with his casinos and that didn't even bring him down, so expecting something on there (there probably is) and then something from there to actually happen is naive. It never happened before, why would it now?

imo, he's never gonna reveal them--getting people to focus on his taxes rather than all the other worse stuff he's been doing has only benefited him. People keep saying he's stupid, and he is about almost everything but he's way smarter than all of you at this politics stuff. He's got everyone looking where he wants them to rather than where people should be looking.

You guys keep looking for this gotcha smoking gun, there isn't going to be one on his taxes period. You expecting a line item Russian Corruption or something? ffs.

You guys still haven't learned yet. I figured this out. He's fully aware people don't have attention spans other than one specific thing and you're all up about his taxes, morons.

Not that it matters anyway, he got away with it before.

If there's nothing obvious or easily proven there, he's been brilliant hiding it since now he just can drop them before 2020 election and every liberal deservedly looks like the biggest idiot in the world.

former presidents?

children of presidents?

I think just "current"

I've never understood the "tax returns will expose Russian stuff" angle. To my knowledge there is zero requirement for disclosure of creditors and/or business partners via tax returns.

Trump administration pressured the government of Argentine President Mauricio Macri to rescind an award to former Democratic President Jimmy Carter. Carter, a frequent critic of the authoritarian tendencies of the Trump administration, was set to be honored by Argentina with the Order of the Liberator General San Martín, the equivalent to America’s Medal of Freedom, however, the Trump administration moved to squash this.

Seriously, there's a vindictive childish authoritarian neo-nazi president in the white house and you're all spending energy on his taxes? Good lord, we're doomed.

Who knows? Maybe his tax returns show ALL of the things we're imagining and not just one. Yikes!

There would of been treason trials by now.

Vindictive, childish, authoritarian, and neo-nazi won't get him evicted. Taxes might.

You answered your own question IMO.

I think the way to do that is create an enemy (the 1%), and then talk about how you'll save them from it. Use small words, and never go off message.

Yet you still fully support him. Please **** off and never post here again. Ok.
