Rachel Maddow releases Trump's 2005 1040 tax return

[Neguinha]

The purpose was to cast more doubt and suspicion around his foreign ties. Ultimately, more doubt and suspicion would promote investigations. Rachel made some valid connections.

Maybe I was being realistic and everyone else thought that she was serving Watergate 2.0.

For real?

yeah the owner of the site just said it as he was departing. He posted the documents at the beginning of his interview and he got a call from his partners that his site had crashed from the volume of visitors. Maddow's site as well.

This is straight stupid...I knew there was a reason I didn't listen to Maddow.

wrong thread

Again - I must state this for you 3rd grade listening comprehension ass nikkas. The taxes Trump has to file by April 15 this year WILL NOT BE UNDER AUDIT BY THE IRS. Therefore he has zero, zilch, nada, NO REASON, not to release those tax returns.

We look forward to the White House coming up with another lame excuse.

Edit: I need to add to this in Napoleon type text: There is no proof of an IRS Audit on Trump's taxes. Trump does not have to wait for his IRS audit to be completed in order to release the taxes he has to file by April 15, 2017.

i would love to know what rachel's show is about right now in that parallel universe where hillary won the election.

"right wing deplorables cry about foreign ties to the clinton foundation... and might i say that is a lovely shade of red on that pantsuit madame president "

 

[tru_m.a.c]

Not to mention, I love how every one of you dumb Trump apologist just skip over the discussion about eviscerating the alternative tax schedule.

Idiots.

This Trump tax shyt DOESN'T PLAY IN WI, MI, AND PA anyway. No Russia = a dead story from the start

He won 3 blue states EVEN WHEN EVERYONE THOUGHT HE DIDNT PAY TAXES FOR 10 YEARS

The sheer stupidity of what Maddow did tonight is mind boggling.

People do care and polling numbers always show Americans overwhelmingly favor the release of his returns. I just think it was another case of Hillary Clinton being absolutely the worst messenger for something--in this case transparency. Against a regular Dem like Sherrod Brown who didn't look like he had anything to hide while running a better, more economically populist campaign, I think the taxes would've really made a difference.

Probably wasn't even Trump. He's got intelligent people in his cabinet that could have easily played this to deflect from CBO and other negative stories for a bit. At least until Comey press conference.

It wasn't a lie, she had his tax returns and it was confirmed by the WH itself but the way she hyped it up was pure fukkery.
Even shows him paying 30m+ in alternative minimum tax. Something he wants to eliminate. While his federal tax is pretty low.

Liberal media still doesn't get it. . .

The people that voted are well aware Trump is no saint.

When the ''grab her by the puccy'' thing came out. I said in this very forum it was a non story the same day it dropped.

Even if Trump's tax returns show he he had not paid a dollar in federal taxes for 3 decades his supporters would probably love him more.

The Russia thing is falling flat simply because it's not true. They're trying desperately to manufacture this lie as fact. It's a hard thing to do when it's complete lie.

They're best bet is to leave Trump alone. . . Believe me the man will eventually shoot himself in the foot in due time. Elitists want him out fast because he just might expose their crimes. I'm guessing that's why they're in such a rush.

What does any of that matter when, as you said, he's not going to release them?

Whose polling?

Ask yourself a question. . . Do YOU really care? I mean really. What bearing does his tax returns really have? This is the definition of manufactured outrage. A billionaire dodges taxes. . . ''Whoo hoo!''

 

[Adam3000]

nothing you just said makes any sense

like not a single thing...do you not understand how many people did not understand the Russian connection until January? Do you not understand how many people do not understand the implications of getting Trump's liability status through tax returns?

y'all have no clue. Entire fukkn states did not know they were protected by ACA rule changes. The American public has no idea how to connect the dots on these things. That is the purpose of investigative journalism. A fukkn duh.

Everything I said makes sense.

This whole shyt meant NOTHING to Trump voters in the heartland. I have been around these people every day since he started his campaign. Have you? They don't care about this



Making a bunch of people like you and me excited doesn't mean shyt.

Trump-Russia is a complete lie? What?
