CNN and Fox reporting on this as well - and doing a much better job, imo.

Apparently, Trump people dropped this off at all the major news sources. Guy on Maddow says the document literally came in "over the transom."

Trump had taxable income of $150 million and paid $38 million in taxes in 2005. That's my take-away.

One more Trump attempt at deflection from the microwave camera/Obama sick dude spying lie.

Lol, even Hillary's campaign spokesman knows how bad this is for liberals:

Quote:
Brian Fallon‏ @brianefallon
Dems should return focus to Trumpcare tomorrow & the millions it will leave uninsured, not get distracted by two pages from '05 tax return
Every day since he's been elected: SHOW us your Tax Return!!!

5 minutes after Maddow releases tax return that shows Trump paid $38 million in taxes: stop paying attention to his tax return!!

a) Look up the word traitor, please. You lack understanding.

b) It's inappropriate for people to release the President's tax returns without his consent. They are HIS tax returns.

c) That being said: I hope he chooses to release them, soon, as he promised he would during the campaign.

d) Unless he didn't mean tax returns when he said "tax returns"...

Fox is fake news. For all of you who have drunk the kool aid, the taxes are important to reveal who Trump owes money to and what country's he is indebted to. I know you're all high on this guy now. He may not be what he appears to be. Investigation is not going to hurt. He's hiding something to be so protective of his tax returns.

If the IRS wants to investigate they can, they have all his returns. What is occurring is now is a violation of someone's privacy. There is no useful purpose to splatter someone's taxes onto the public airways.

Trump threw his hat into the political ring 2015, these tax returns are 10 years prior to that.

He paid about 38M in taxes. The bulk of which is due to the AMT -.. now if he decides to enact a tax reform to remove the AMT, his time as president would surely have been worth it. Imagine how much less he and his rich buddies will be paying in taxes after we remove the AMT...

The 2 page 1040 form isn't enough though, the important thing is the source of his income which we still need to look at. But until the Repugs stop blocking any attempt in the Senate to get Trump's returns released we won't know if Trump is truly beholden to any foreign person or gov't.

Do we truly want someone holding our country's highest office to act in someone or some other country's interest?
