Trump lawyer: 'We're asking for temporary presidential immunity'

So it is just like the Democrats then.............

 

So what's it's his choice you can't force him to but he has released the require financial disclosure forms ever since he announced his candidacy.

What is it you expect to find in his tax returns which is not in those financial disclosure forms?

Which other Presidents and foreign assets and he gave up control of his company.

And, I would add:

Why is that the business or Congress or you?

What business is that of yours or the Congress

He has to list all assets

It's through his foundation which reports it and none of the business of Congress

They are under threat of perjury just like a tax return and the IRS can compare with the returns in an audit

Totally unnecessary.

So again what is it you expect to find in his tax returns that are not already listed in his financial disclosure form.

 

The day a President doesn't have to keep in the back of his mind, "I could go to jail for this ..." when he takes an action or makes a decision, will be a sad day for American democracy.

Hem and haw all you want. Eventually those returns are going to see the light of day. Not because it is Trump, but because of the so many unanswered questions you wish to sweep under the rug. Answer me this: If he has nothing to hide, why spend so much time, energy, and money to prevent their release? If you had nothing to hide is that how you would handle this? HINT: Think back to this very same question, and how you have answered it here in the past.

 

You still have not posted anything you expect to find in those tax returns, that you have any need or business to know, that are not on his already filed financial disclosure forms. Don't fret you join a big club of others I have been asking for almost four years and either get bogus things like "how much he is worth" well that's not in a tax return, "how much he owes soandso", well that's not in a tax return, those are in his financial disclosure forms. And spare me the "well if you have nothing to hide you should publish your private and protected information". OK how about you, post your tax returns here so we can see them just to see what's in them. How about when the police come knocking on your door without a search warrant, if you have nothing to hide do you let them search your house? If that is all you got left you ain't got nothing.

 

Post #79 details what his tax returns would reveal. Which is entirely separate from his financial disclosures to date. You keep harping on the disclosures while denying that they are merely an overview of his finances AND NOT a detailed analysis of his tax burden. And, financial disclosures ARE NOT subject to audit.

 

Already respond and a bunch of irrelevent stuff you have no business. Now be specific about HIS tax return and something criminal. What that is not in his financial disclosure?

 

You still don't seem to (purposely) get it. Financial disclosures are voluntary and not subject to IRS audit. Trump can say whatever he wants to in the disclosures. It doesn't make what he says in them true. But keep hanging your hat on that. LOL....

 

You don't get it they are REQUIRED BY LAW and subject to the same penalties as filing false information as with any other required document like your tax return. They not only show is his income, they show his assets which is what you are really after and those are NOT shown in his tax return. They show who he owes money to and how much, that is not shown in a tax return unless he can claim the interest as a business deduction, personal interest not shown, and then only how much interest he paid. It shows any other investments which are not all shown on a tax return.

What is it exactly they you believe you must know that it is a matter of national security in his tax return and be specific. How much he gave to charity is not.

 

I'm sorry, what? Trump hasn't disclosed jack or ****. His disclosures are complete useless tripe. Who does he owe money to, what does he actually own? Impossible to know based on what he "disclosed".

A one page balance sheet is not a financial disclosure.

 

Great Idea. So you are fine with the next Democrat President being indicted, convicted and imprisoned while in office?

Good to know! Wyoming is R+25, it's the most Republican state in the Union. So, no need to deal with all this impeachment crap under your moralizing edicts, why, all we have to do is wait for s/he to pass through Wy, and we can immediately arrest them, jail them, indict them before they can post bail, gather the court, hear the case and sentence them to prison for the remainder of their term.

How in the hell will s/he perform the function of Article II from a Wyoming prison cell?
