the hell he isn’t. he said that reading trumps returns leads one to think he broke the law. but he hasn’t read a return, so he has zero basis to say that.

if we can show he cheated on taxes, he should
be removed from
office. i don’t know how else to say it, and i can’t believe you’d call that dodging.
but forgive me if i’m not willing to take the word of the NYT. because again, i’m old enough to remember when rachael maddow said she had the smoking gun of tax returns, and it showed that he paid millions.

What's there to say? It's between him and the IRS.

Said a true Trumpet, it also might have a lot to do with criminal activity and I think the majority of tax paying Americans might have an interest as it reflects on his credibility and honesty (hard to even type that as it is foreign to DJT). Follow the money might also might explain his protection of Putin and don’t break out the blue I already know hoe you stand on probably everything. Deny and deflect will be Trumps response to this.

"Might have" is not a notion that persuades me of anything. If the IRS finds errors or fraud in Trump's returns, that would be more persuasive than any "might have." What is not a "might have" is Trump's four years in office. I prefer his presidency to any Clinton or Obama, or thoroughly Progressive administration. I understand you disagree with me. I don't care. And I'm not interested in any "might haves" re Trump's taxes, nor in how much he paid.

or it might mean that's all he owed because he had a loss to offset his income.
If he cheated, that's one thing. If he paid what the law said he owed, big whoop.

do you understand it’s possible to
follow the law to the letter, and pay no federal income tax?
you can pay $0 and follow the law, you can pay $10 million and be a tax cheat. it’s what you pay, relative to what you owe.
is that going too fast for you? show us he owes more, and i’ll be the first to say he should
go. i don’t like the guy.

excuses after excuses seem you've complained a-lot about those who you say pay no taxes , like the elderly or students who get all their taxes in a refund ,,, but you champion Trump for paying no taxes what happen to draining the swamp ...
These are the reason their is a swamp because its good for rich people to game the system ,bad for regular Americans .
again your lack of ethics and no demand for general fairness speaks volumes about your views
if he didn't do anything illegal I am good with it you say ... but you have no wiliness to have it investigated or demand he provides his tax returns
again using he"s not required by Law .. BS
Trump is the Swamp its about time you accept it

Big whoop really? So Trump personally is on the hook soon for what many say is closer to over a billion and his businesses are tanking just like everyone else in that sector, he is a national security risk! Foreign governments are watching this reporting and making notes, DJT is now a target and mark. He would be the PERFECT asset for one of our long time enemies.
The threat to our security doesn’t go away if he isn’t elected, in fact it probably grows short term as now he would be willing to sell what he knows to the highest bidder, if you don’t think this is serious your head is either stuck in the sand or up your own arse.

here’s what’s a big whoop. if he took legal tax deductions which got his tax liability down to $150, it’s no big whoop if he paid $150.
you cannot conclude someone cheated based on what they paid. only if what they paid is less than what they owed. if he cheated, kick him out and arrest him. but knowing he paid $150, tells us nothing.

You missed the point of Bob’s post you quoted.... The owed liability is the main concern. The $750 is a sign of the overall #^&#^&#^&#^&ed up tax code

Are you not reading or just ignoring my point, a president with millions if not a billion in personal debt coming due, might (he probably already has) make global political decisions to help himself financially in the future and clearly he would be the absolute perfect target for any foreign government to secure as an asset, that amount of debt is a leverage gold mine.

Good try, I think the long con is about over. I can see the allure for Donald Trump of living in a rent free house. But I’m not sure what his landlords think of the arrangement.
We will know soon enough, since it's 35 days till voters get to decide if they want the federal government to look like a Trump business that is struggling for direction under the impulses of an unhinged CEO, deeply in debt, high manager turnover rate, low morale, countless lawsuits over questionable practices, and sinking brand reputation.
You just keep believing and while you are at it you can explain how Trump can repay $1.1B in debt while he's in the exact sectors of the economy that are getting creamed by the pandemic: real estate, travel, leisure. He's getting squeezed on his ability to make $, he's gorged on debt...He has never sold anything in his life even when it was hemorrhaging cash.
How much taxpayer money has Trump been siphoning off to keep afloat? How many secrets has Trump sold to our adversaries? How many secrets will he sell and deals will he make to keep his empire of fraud going? He is a national security danger even after he’s removed from office.
