One Million People Demand Trump
most NORMAL people can give two craps about Trumps tax returns

what will it show... wow a rich BILLIONAIRE had to pay millions in taxes

wow..in year(s) he has LOSSES, he was able to use those losses to effectively negate his tax bill....JUST LIKE EVERYONE else can



why are all the fascist liberals worrying about OTHER PEOPLES TAXES???....oh we know..liberals want to find MORE taxes to charge EVERYONE (especially the middleclass)

And you don't wonder why Trump won't show his tax returns. That's very odd since no other president had a problem with it. So what is Trump afraid of that he doesn't want the country to know. No, sorry, not going to get over it. And there is no battle. We want him to show his tax returns just like he spent years wanting Obama to show his birth certificate

Well, it took Obama years to produce his birth cert, so I guess you will just have to be content with waiting years for a Trump tax return.

1,000,000 down, another 323,000,000 to go. Maybe a record number of zeros, but IMO 3/10 of 1% of the population is but a whisper.

No I don't wonder because I don't care. He's doing what he said he would do in his campaign promises. That's why I wanted him to be President. I don't give a rat's behind if he paid $1 or $1 billion. It's beyond irrelevant to me. Whatever he paid, it was legal or else the IRS would have been all over him. What's important to me is that he's following immigration laws and he nominated a conservative to the Supreme Court. Everything else is gravy.
BTW, I didn't give a rat's behind about Obama's birth certificate either.

I hope he never releases his tax returns to the public. His tax return is no more my business than my tax return is his business. Time to move back to privacy and integrity in our country. I don't trust people who supposedly tell all. Most of them probably have a real tax return and the other tax return to show the public. Most of us would not understand his tax return if we saw it. I am not sure I understand my own tax return. That's why we hire a professional to do it.

The older I get, the more I realize that politics is just "same ish, different day" with some people.

Obama haters complained, argued, and bickered about Obama EVERY SINGLE DAY for eight years. And now that the other side is doing it, the Obama haters have a problem with the bickering. How funny!
Ooops, sorry missed your point. You already know this, but..

Hillary released her tax returns. So did Tim Kaine.

https://www.hillaryclinton.com/page/tax-returns/

Quote:
Hillary Clinton released her 2015 personal tax return and Senator Tim Kaine and his wife, Anne Holton, released 10 years of their returns.

“Hillary Clinton and Tim Kaine continue to set the standard for financial transparency as she releases her 2015 personal tax return and builds on the Clintons’ tradition of making their returns public since 1977 and Kaine releases 10 years of his returns,” said Hillary for America communications director Jennifer Palmieri. “In stark contrast, Donald Trump is hiding behind fake excuses and backtracking on his previous promises to release his tax returns. He has failed to provide the public with the most basic financial information disclosed by every major candidate in the last 40 years. What is he trying to hide?”
Other former presidents all released their returns.

Obama didn't need to show his birth certificate. He was born in Hawaii, and was a US senator. The only one who questioned his birth place was Trump But Trump not showing his tax returns is a red flag because it means he has something to hide.

NO, it does not mean he is hiding something

HIS taxes is a PRIVATE item between him AND the IRS


if he was hiding something..the IRS would have him in jail. or owing a sever debt...the IRS is not very forgiving
