Hillary, Rubio, Cruz, Carson, Sanders, etc don't own a very large multi-billion dollar corporation which does business in dozens of countries and employee's 10s of 1000s of people. Trump does.
Filing a tax return that involves all of that is going to take time.
But it gets even dumber, Trump owns how many companies, and their income and expenses wouldnt show up on trumps tax return.
People like Trump get audited by the FED every year. Take it up with his accountant. Charlie Rangel was charged with tax evasion but was not forced to resign.
oh hell. Obama nominated a tax cheat to be in charge of the IRS and the left thought it was a fantastic idea...
Opening a casino is an economic desert like Atlantic City is charity enough.
And the financial forms to obtain a casino license, is unbelievably thorough. What people think they are going to see from releasing a tax return vs a casino license application which is literally hundreds of pages long, is puzzling.
Trump could just release his returns and say look how little I paid in taxes. Govt bureaucrats like Hillary are so stupid they dont even know how dumb our tax code is. Im gonna tear it up and replace it with 1 page so everyone pays their fair share.
IMO:
This is what I think will eventually happen and his paying very little (or even more than that) will probably be very legit under the tax laws as I'm sure he has the best people doing his taxes.
Otherwise most other voting people will see this Romney GOPe feeble attempt as another trying to control them which they see right through like what the MSM tries to do as well with promoting their candidate of choice.

.... or he can show that he paid more in taxes than all the other candidates in both parties combined. Look what a patriotic American he is.
I don't doubt there are a lot of stink bombs in Trump's returns. It won't matter to his supporters.
I agree. The guy has been married three times, had an affair, and dodged the draft. Trump doesn't claim to be a holy man. And while I don't support him, I'm glad we as a nation are moving past the requirement only a Saint can be a candidate for the highest office. A Saint is a b-o-r-e.

14. "Speeches" for political favors
15. Disaster in middle east (Syria, Libya, Iraq, Egypt)
16. Email scandal with obstruction of justice
.............................. just the short list. Only an idiot would vote for a career criminal who has used politics only to gain personal wealth.
17. Put a 12-year old rape victim on the stand and made the jury believe she was "asking for it" and got the rapist off while in Arkansas.
But it gets even dumber, Trump owns how many companies, and their income and expenses wouldnt show up on trumps tax return.
The whole thread is stupidity..
Exactly. Trump gets a K-1 from each company that pays him a dividend or distribution with the amount to include in his wages subject to taxation.
