    I don't give two shits if he didn't pay any taxes or paid low taxes... if he didn't take advantage of every loophole I'd be disappointed. I think when/if they ever get released, no one will give a shit anyway.
    He's trolling.

    Hard.

    I imagine it shows he's only a 900 millionaire and he calls himself a billionaire and he's afraid people will make fun of him for it.

    If the Democrats are trying to prove illegal contributions, I mean I doubt the President doesn't have accountant's fifty times more wiley than House investigators.
    The idea that Democrats are going to find anything illegal in Trump's tax returns is just pure nonsense that they peddle to their supporters. This is all about finding ANYTHING to make Trump look bad, even if it's "He doesn't pay his fair share!" nonsense.

    Like the IRS doesn't go through Trump's returns with a fine tooth comb every year, I'm sure they would have found something illegal themselves by now. But if only Democrats in Congress could take a gander at those returns then they for sure could find the illegal actions!

    That's all it seems like to me, fodder for 2020. There's enough information from financial statements to derive the same information about Trump's business success of lack thereof.

    Now if the Democrats do get the information and release it for purely political purposes, I hope there's prosecution.

    I've seen some Democrats online actually think Trump's taxes will prove he was bribed by Russia or some shit. Yes, they have convinced themselves that Trump will have a line on his tax forms somewhere stating "Bribe received from Russia: 1,000,000" in 2015 or something. It's absolute lunacy. And also nothing will come of it even if Democrats release his taxes for political purposes. Democrats seem to be immune to prosecution lately.

    I've also always thought the tradition of releasing tax returns was dumb anyways. Like a bunch of millionaires trying their best to ensure us that they are just like us common folks because they grew up poor or because when they were younger their father was a hard worker or something.

    I really don't give a single shit about tax returns from politicians, unless they entered politics poor, have been in politics for decades, and are now filthy rich, those returns I wouldn't mind seeing.

    Well we already know from a prior case he had to testify that he just makes stuff up about his net worth and most of it is based on his "feelings". I am sure he is nowhere near truthful on any of the things he has claimed. I think it might also be that there is a lot of things in there that would contradict what he has told banks when he applied for loans.
