    He said that before he was even a candidate for President and obviously changed his mind. It's not important.

    Yes, there was a meeting in Trump Tower but so what? Why is that important? He fired Comey on recommendation from Acting AG Rosenstein and Comey deserved it. As we now know Trump had nothing to do with any Russians. What could Mueller possibly add to his two year investigation that hasn't been reported?

    What has to be asked is how this Witch Hunt began, and the FBI's involvement - including James Comey and his staff.

    The President does not work for Congress nor report to them I don't know why you are struggling with that. Release of taxes is purely voluntary by the person.

    Pound sand. You want bills of attainder which fly in the face of the Constitution just because you're still mad Trump won.

    And you nor anyone else have been able to clearly state what of any importance you expect to find in his tax returns that is not already in his financial disclosure forms.

    Mueller has already said his testimony IS the report and he has nothing further to add. What's in it we don't know?

    According to some, yes.

    As others have stated, to which I whole-heartedly agree, is the examination of all Politicians in DC who have made more than the median income of the people they represent during their time in DC.

    Least transparent... Trump? Where are the specific charges that Trump committed tax evasion? What justifies putting his private tax returns out in public? Is there any evidence that he committed tax crimes, like Obama's Treasury Secretary, Timothy Geither was convicted of -- twice?

    Least transparent... Trump? BTW, are we ever going to get to see "Messiah" Obama's college transcripts...? :cynic:

    No such protocol exists. Only tradition. No one need comply with tradition.

    Of course if the people see that someone running for office is not part of American tradition and culture and is un-American, the people can vote that person out to keep them out.

    How many times have I called out a TDSer over that???? Our "we want to see who he owes money" ahhh not on a tax return but already on the financial disclosure forms he has submitted since a candidate.

    Never interrupt your enemy when they're destroying themselves.

    Will some resident Democrat tell me what the probable cause is of this request? If not it is a direct violation of the Fourth Amendment. I saw some LW clown say last night that Cuomo's bill wasn't directed specifically at Trump, then heard Cuomo do nothing but talk about Trump at the signing press conference. These people are either stupid or liars, take your pick.

    By definition you're correct. No one needs to comply with tradition no matter how many times they've promised they would if elected.

    What's the charge? What's the crime? Filing tax returns in a timely manner?

    While tax returns show a great many things, which no can legally see other than a specific committee IF it even gets that far, and regardless of the drooling I've seen, I highly doubt there is a line on any of his returns that reads 'Payoffs and Bribes' 1M, or under the table payments, $255K. I've yet to figure out what they expect to find, and believe they don't expect to find anything... it's a humiliation maneuver, to try and prove they can, even though Trumps feels it's not necessary.

    And it is not required. Personally, I really don't care how his tax returns read, Id love to see ALL politician's tax returns made public, the ones who go in with modest wealth, and walk out billionaires....

    There is none. It is like the Russia collusion witch hunt, which was an investigation in search of a crime, based on hearsay.

    this is going through the courts, my guess is we will get Trump's tax returns eventually - not sure what he is hiding, but we will find our eventually
