When they act like banana republic dictators they should be taken down.

Trump is clean as whistle when it comes to tax compliance. The only gray area that exists, and this a gray area for every business, every public company (and private) and every business that follows GAAP is asset valuation. Trump followed IRS and US GAAP, the NY Attorney is contesting the asset valuations, coming up with subjective arguments that they were incorrect. The courts (easily) ruled in Trump favor.

My question is how can they sue civilly? The witch hunt continues...

Surely, NOW they've got him!

I've never seen such a pathetic witch hunt in my life.

The leftists are blind to the fact that they have destroyed every ounce of credibility they've ever had.

Until now, I don't think I have ever seen one person who lived a life of so many white collar crimes.

Because one liberal makes a claim, all liberals will believe the claim.

People can't appraise the value of their own property. She is barking up the wrong tree.

Then why did he refuse to disclose them, the way he promised he would if he was elected? If they were "clean as a whistle" it would seem like he would want to show that. The fact that he didn't kind of belies your supposition.

Disputes over how much he and his accountants valued the Trump Tower, apartments inside, and other such stuff.

The purpose is, of course, aside from getting money from him, to arrange it so they can scream "Look, he's being sued by everyone!" just before the midterm elections so that anyone he backs will be tarnished.

Democrats have been running a full-court press against him (and losing) since he came down the escalator in 2015.

Just about every breath Trump takes is scrutinized by the left, and full of false allegation and lies. Why would Trump disclose the information?

Because he promised he would? Why would he say he would and then renege on that promise? Because he never had any intention of following through. And you fell for it.
