Americans want their Presidents to release their taxes so they can know they are not compromised by any foreign interests. They also do that so they can know their wealth is from legitimate sources and it wouldn't affect their decision makings.
Joe Biden released his. Do they show he is not compromised by foreigners? Do they show a 700k payment from Ukraine?
Substance please.

You are the most ignorant sheep on the other side of Atlantic. You are so ignorant that you think you make any sense. What kind of IRS audit is he going through. Millions of Americans are being audited yearly and my wife and I was audited about five years ago. The real Billionaires that are 50 to 100 times richer than Trump do get audited and they clear it up unless for Don the Con who has being hiding under being audited and he has to fight all the way to Supreme Court not to release his taxes. He's as fake as a $3 bill. Go back in your hole boy. You know of nothing of which you speak.
Hmm Ive got 3 ignoramuses here Ill dispatch them one by one.

Sonoflincoln Here is Rachel Maddow revealing Trump 2005 returns. Billionaires do not make a billion a year, their networth when market valued is the determinant . A legal business with annual billion dollar revenue can safely gross you on average never more than 20% market competition considered. 150m income would put revenues at least 600m and no upper limit .

See this Trump cultist!!

What kind of nonsense excuse is this? You are giving rubbish excuses for Trump not to release his taxes!

If other presidents released their taxes, so could he. George Bush was a millionaire before being president.

If Trump promised to release his taxes, he should not break his promise.
Why do you want his taxes. To bolster his fake russia collusion
Im sure Robert Mueller went through them.If Mueller was able to obtain all his transition team comms , he definitely also had a look at them.
Nothing to see here Move on.

I don't even know where to start with the junk you posted. Will take the last one about him not showing his taxes. Does that makes sense to you after he promised to show his taxes after being elected in 2016. What is it he's hiding. He's not a certified billionaire because in America, your taxes shows how rich you are and where your finances comes from. How do I know, because I have been paying taxes for well over 25 years. Say you what.
The IRS audits him. You (with no expertise in anything under the sun who thinks the whole internet can be downloaded into your laptop for offline use) want to be our analyst here .

Lol so you believe theres something called deep state and its exists? lol no wonder sonoflincoln calls you guys cultists.

Do you realize Trump made a promise to release his tax records as part of his campaign promises in 2016, is it deep state that made him do that? every American president has released their taxes, the last American President that never released his taxes was Richard Nixon, we all know how he ended
Trump talked about draining the swamp. Thats the bureaucracy in DC . Obviously the entrenched interests that comprised of republicans and Democrats in DC were not happy . Right from first day the attacks against him started. looking for any dirt to smear him unlike any other candidate in history. There is no law to release his taxes. its only a precedent. Im my oft stated opinion there should have been a law to release taxes before elections and after leaving office. That would ensure politicians dont use their office to amassl illegal wealth.
Trump also called on congressional and senate term limits and a period where politicians dont immediately become lobbyists after leaving office. You can be sure that most professional politicians would not want that. Some have served for tens of decades, controlling party nominations and campaign funding such that its impossible to primary them.
To the chagrin of lobbists he also was against nation building in other countries and getting troops involved in wars where the mainland proponents are interested in selling military hardware. Lots of enemies to create with that stand.
Given that backdrop one sees the alienation of the political class with the ordinary citizen who just wants to live and let be Trump if not for the Resistance and trumped up charges of MuhRussia would have exposed the machinations of the entrenched political class for the betterment of everyone.
For Trump to release his taxes would be giving ammunition to the gun welders.
The democrats and ICommunity were already accusing him of being compromised by Russians. As a businessman Im sure he has sold real estate to Russians, the biased media would have a hey day saying he took in Russian money.
He would not be the first to sell something to Russians .

Trump Could Be Investigated for Tax Fraud, D.A. Says for First Time

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/09/21/nyregion/donald-trump-taxes-cyrus-vance.html

The Manhattan district attorney’s office, which has been locked in a yearlong legal battle with President Trump over obtaining his tax returns, suggested for the first time on Monday that it had grounds to investigate him and his businesses for tax fraud.

The assertion by the office of the district attorney, Cyrus R. Vance Jr., offered rare insight into the office’s investigation into the president and his business dealings, which began more than two years ago.

Mr. Vance, a Democrat, has never revealed the scope of his office’s criminal inquiry, citing grand jury secrecy. The investigation has been stalled by the fight over a subpoena that the office issued in August 2019 for eight years of the president’s tax returns.

Lawyers for Mr. Trump have said the subpoena should be blocked, calling it “wildly overbroad” and politically motivated. Mr. Vance responded to that argument in a new filing that did not directly accuse Mr. Trump or any of his businesses or associates of wrongdoing.

However, prosecutors listed news reports and public testimony that alleged misconduct by Mr. Trump and his businesses. The reports, prosecutors wrote, would justify a grand jury inquiry into a range of possible crimes, including tax and insurance fraud and falsification of business records. It was the first time the office had included tax fraud among the possible areas of investigation. “Even if the grand jury were testing the truth of public allegations alone, such reports, taken together, fully justify the scope of the grand jury subpoena at issue in this case,” prosecutors wrote.
mire
Jay Sekulow, a lawyer for Mr. Trump, declined to comment on the district attorney’s filing.
More and more harassment by Deep state. Trump is really a threat to some people. Unrelenting 4 year witchunt, cheered on by s completely dishonest media.
There must be something huge thats being prevented from exposure.There were republicans before. no one has ever faced this.

Hitler had brownshirts who went round harrasing his opponents long before he took the reins of power.

Democrats are the real Nazis. The evil dirty players. Republicans dont fight dirty , they are held by the left to their supposed higher moral positions.

AO Cortez said that Mitch is playing with fire and Antifa showed up at Lindsey Graham door step loudly.

DoJ has identified out New York, Portland and Seattle as anarchist jurisdictions .Arrested thugs have been immediately released in those anarchists paradises.

Not only Asian workers. Please don't get it twisted, there are lots of Nigerians, Canadians, Europeans as well. And please but don't get it twisted. They get paid good money. One of my co-workers just moved to AMD in San Francisco. He moved from Canada, but someone like you will also call him an Asian worker for moving to the US for low wage when dude is on $160k USD per year. How many Americans make such? He is a Nigerian/Canadian and now a US tax payer.

You are sounding like the usual uneducated high school dropout Trump supporter that is angry an immigrant with a MSc from Urbana-Champaigne or Caltech is in the US to take his job.
Same undeducated immigrant will also claim immigrant specialist doctors are in the US to steal their jobs. grin

You also talk about low skilled jobs being filled by immigrants. Tell that to Trump whose clothing line and campaign stuffs are being manufactured in China.
I included skilled workers from the world over, after having mentioned Asian immigrants that the big tech companies really like.
Big tech is generally happy with more immigrants a position that Trump does not hold that dear.

All pro immigration hawks have their own reasons for wanting more and more immigrants.

Business choose the best location for their business based on economic n supply chain logistics. Locate your business where you can make more.

Many low skilled jobs are filled by immigrants.Dont leftists say Americans cannot do some jobs?

Big techs as you claim and intellectual bodies in America is against Trump. Does Trump rub himself with poop?
It seems you did not know that big tech relies a lot on asian workers. Limiting their entrance goes against the ultimate aim of business, make as much as they can with minimum expenses.

There. We have marxists intent on destroying the society through uncontrolled migration, we have human and drug smugglers happy, we have big pool of low wage manual laborers, we have leftists feeling good about themselves with miscegenation., promoters of diversity n inclusion also happy.
And we have big tech happy about accessing skilled workforce at a lower cost.

Climate change is not really a hoax
We've had the seasons over time, ice age, etc.
The proponents are a fraud in many cases.

Fracking opponents talk about underground water pollution which is really possible. Talk about the dangers of oil spills to the environment which is also possible.

An interested party is OPEC and other oil producing countries which hedge their budgets on oil revenues. They obviously would fund antifrack movements in countries looking to exploit fracking.

Green is good , sounds kinda sexxy and modern. How much fossil fuels are used to power green energy factories? How reliable is green energy.

Some editor is now pushing for Joe Biden to announce Michelle Obama as his SC nominee.
Clinton was said to have promised Lorreta Lynch AG a Supreme Court nomination and James Comey the AG. Andy McCabe was to be FBI director
For democrats its their cronies who push democrat agenda not rule of law.

Obama was also a puppet . He recieved a list of nominees to appoint once he became POTUS from Wall Street giant Citigroup.According to wikileaks

https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2016/10/15/wiki-o15.html



One month before the presidential election of
2008, the giant Wall Street bank Citigroup
submitted to the Obama campaign a list of
its preferred candidates for cabinet positions
in an Obama administration. This list
corresponds almost exactly to the eventual
composition of Barack Obama’s cabinet.


Froman’s list proved remarkably prescient.
As it proposed, Robert Gates, a Bush
holdover, became secretary of Defense; Eric
Holder became attorney general; Janet
Napolitano, secretary of Homeland Security;
Rahm Emanuel, White House chief of staff;
Susan Rice, United Nations ambassador; Arne
Duncan, secretary of Education; Kathleen
Sebelius, secretary of Health and Human
Services; Peter Orszag, head of the Office of
Management and Budget; Eric Shinseki,
secretary of Veterans Affairs; and Melody
Barnes, chief of the Domestic Policy Council

Trump's in mid stage dementia hence he couldn't sit or walk straight. He can't carry a small glass of water with one hand and he regularly slurs his words not to talk of mispronouncing words and serial lies. Those are the real traits of dementia which Trump the fat smelly Orange is suffering from.
Here is Trump standing and shaking hands for over an hour.
