It’s the kind you can serve up when your base has a hard time remembering 15 minutes ago.

That face. I’ve seen it somewhere before…

Let me think…

Oh, yes.

I remember.

A slippery slope that might keep corrupt presidential canidates from getting into office. Then how we we ever have another Republican candidate?

seamus42 · February 1, 2019, 5:00pm

Yeah, but see, now they can declare that the slope IS the emergency!

I don’t recall Trump invoking any right to privacy where his taxes were concerned. I believe he made up a fake rule about them being sealed while under audit and said he’d release them once they were no longer under audit. I assume that, since he is a corrupt POS, he has likely ordered the IRS to stop the audit, right? So, assuming that, what’s the holdup?

LOL Sorry. Here’s a picture of Obama to clean your brain.

Thank you!

Thank you!!!

Slippery slope indeed!

The next thing you know, people will be demanding that a presidential nominee be … oh, I don’t know, maybe qualified for the job.

capital2 · February 1, 2019, 5:08pm

Oooh, love this and may steal it!

Rep. Nobody Cares got the short straw to come out and lob this turd. Waste of time and space. He actually helps the Democrats agenda by being a typical out of touch Republican.

Dear Low-Information Voters:

If someone hides stuff from you, don’t vote for them. Just a little hint.

ncgirl741 · February 1, 2019, 5:09pm

It will only be a slippery slope if someone has something to hide

Put on your ice skates m/f’r

How’s about ‘anybody’ applying for federal office has to release their tax returns?

We needed to know Trump’s ‘possible’ conflicts of interest BEFORE he was President.

Hey, isn’t Reed shocked that the President was seeking the Moscow deal UP TO THE ELECTION? I have not heard anything from his brand of GOP-ness on THAT issue.

No worries, it’s open source!

“The American people elected him.”

I thought the American people elected Clinton.

tena · February 1, 2019, 5:14pm

We did.

zillacop · February 1, 2019, 5:15pm

Duh, it’s not like presidents turning over their income taxes is a new phenomena. Obviously this one has a great deal to hide.
