Discussion: McConnell: Trump Not Releasing His Taxes Breaks With Tradition

Hey, money isn’t racist, only people with money are racists. What more does Trump need to prove?

I think Elizabeth Warren should tweet this. Let Hillary stay above the fray.

Hmm. I don’t remember Romney releasing his tax returns in their entirety.

I wonder what the game is here. I know they don’t like Trump, but if not him, who? It’s a bit late in the day for another candidate to emerge.

I imagine that some part of Trump’s business interests and personal taxes will always be under some form of audit. He’s never going to release his recent tax returns. Just like Romney.

This is beyond irritating! First TPM refuses to cover Hillary because she is not a raving lunatic, and then they equate her 30 years of published tax returns with one partial summary of Bernies’s from 2 years ago (before he started paying his wife as a campaign operative, for example!

Don’t underestimate the dumbness of the average AZ voter. McCain will be re-elected. The man who gave the world Sarah Palin will win.

Donald Trump: Small net worth, small income, small genitalia, small mind.

Breaks with tradition??

Kind of like you and the re-puke senators that refuse a hearing for President Obama’s SCOTUS nominee.

How brave of you to point out your flaws in trump!

Way too tame. I am currently liking “Slimey Donald.”

Another one I love: “Deadbeat Donald.”

Bite your tongue!

We’re trying…if only the re-pukes would count every vote, we might have a chance.

McConnell? He’s the same guy who was talking about the precedent of not confirming a Supreme Court judge in an election year, right?

I wouldn’t put too much faith in Mitch McConnell’s assessment of what does and what does not constitute “precedent.”

There probably is, but with Trump, tax returns aren’t the only likely source of bombshells. We’ll see them, regardless of source.

You must have gotten a TPM correction, as it states:
“Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton has made her returns public, while Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) posted his 2014 returns.”

That’s still not a correction, as he’s only released the first 2 pages of his 2014 returns. And nobody has called him out on the absurdity of “my wife’s been kind of busy” excuse – the returns (I assume) were filed long ago, it’s just a question of making them available. It’s not like she’s being required to actually do the returns now. Unless maybe that’s the problem, he didn’t file them? Hm.

Check your snark meter.

While I agree that tramp should release his taxes well before the election, I also think that tramp should work to remove McConnell from his majority leader position ASAP.

Agreed. It’s especially ludicrous that we hear non-stop sniping from Sander’s about Clinton’s paid speeches considering that the only reason we know what she was paid is because she released years worth of returns.

Maybe it’s time to start asking Bernie if the reason he won’t release his returns is because there are some sources of income he doesn’t want to be made public.

Trump is hiding something bad or illegal. TheRealLucifer cannot be trusted.

This is funny coming from McConnell, who broken with “decades of historical precedent” for years and lied about why he doing it. While looking straight in your face or camera. Their an old saying, ‘POT CALLING THE KETTLE BLACK’.

And McConnell stormed away with no comment when asked about Scalia’s replacement and that small thing called the US Constitution!

Mitch needs to resign and give back his paycheck and apply for welfare benefits because he ain’t working.
