Donald Trumps Tax Returns will show ties to the Mafia and organized crime.

“Given Mr. Trump’s equanimity with other flaws in his history, we can only assume it’s a bombshell of unusual size.”
It’s amazing that Mitt Romney isn’t able to connect with the common man.
Not merely ties, what if he is actually a Mafia Don? Don Don Drumpf. Whenever a character, real or fictional, has a repetitive name, it’s never good. The options range from a despised, malevolent person like Sirhan Sirhan or a ridiculous, annoying character like Jar Jar Binks. Don Don Drumpf is an amalgamation of the two.
Don’t know if this disqualifies him, but there’s plenty of other stuff that should.
Mitt Romney had an army of accountants to window dress the one return he released.
Yes on vulture capitalist, pension thief, opportunistic and preys upon his fellow humans. Not so sure on the ‘tax cheat’ part. He took advantage of loopholes, paid almost no taxes on unearned income and taxes typical of wealthy Americans…sickeningly low.
Yes he is! On this issue he’s been the only GOPer to speak truth to the hair.
Trolololololololol…

Baby, it is quite obviously you are painfully outgunned in the intelligence category around here. There are some seriously smart people discussing politics here. Scurry back to redstate or Fox where you fit in. Slanted viewpoints, lack of citations and false equivalence don’t cut it on TPM. DT’s tax returns have nothing to do with Hillary, Al Sharpton, Nancy Pelosi, Benghazi or whatever other silly BS you think. Scram.
Exactly. Trump is hiding something.
It’s indicative of the cavalier, irresponsible, and dangerous regard Republicans have toward national security, when they allow an individual to gain access to our most sensitive information without revealing his financial obligations and who he’s beholden to.
The lives of our sons and daughters are at stake.
This starts to make me wonder. Because if Trump had done a good job of separating his business and his personal interests, his personal tax returns would hardly show anything. They’d have the money he receives in salary or other payments from his various enterprises (maybe all listed, maybe not if he had the sense to create an uber-shell company to own them for him), any personal money he’s gotten from his reality show and other appearance (unless that goes through a corporate shell too) and a bunch of personal expenses. And that would be it.
But I bet instead it’s a fscking mess, with personal and business income and outgo randomly commingled, one shell company paying expenses for another or taking income ditto, business money getting put in personal accounts and so forth. It would be a complete clusterf**** to release. And quite possibly (unlike the IRS, who may generally only be able to focus on one enterprise return at a time) the power of the intertubes could find something really interesting. Or at least the Donald is insecure enough to fear that they would find something.
(I am remembering the days when my mother was a CPA, and had to fire a client because he insisted on taking his mistress’s apartment and other upkeep as an office expense…)

A person who has been married go the same person for 57 years, raised 6 children, never been on welfare even during hard times, served his country for 4 years and respects the Constitition of and loves this country would annoy liberals. It’s understandable.

Was Hillary’s…

One minute crazed people claim Trump was a lifelong Democrat and the next minute they claim he has always been a part of the Republican elite, the 1%, , which apparently does not include liberal billionaires from Facebook, Microsoft and many corporation heads.
Yeah, he just might put our secrets on his personal e-mail server.
I’m sure the information available is as truthful as Hillary has been.
Lol, okay. Maybe figure out how to do some verifiable research. There’s all sorts of ways to establish authenticity. Give it a go. It might just break you out of your little bubble.
Mittens didn’t need welfare, he stole from small companies, took their cash before he shut them down. And he served his country by running to France in 1968 during the Vietnam war and lolling on a beach

"wonders if I have to pull out those Trump ‘rap star’ quotes, where he brags about his wealth.
Mark Zuckerberg has never specified his own political views: some consider him a conservative,[123][124] while others consider him liberal.[125] In 2013, numerous liberal and progressive groups, such as The League of Conservation Voters, MoveOn.org, the Sierra Club, Democracy for America, CREDO, Daily Kos, 350.org, and Presente and Progressives United agreed to either pull their Facebook ad buys or not buy Facebook ads for at least two weeks, in protest of Zuckerberg ads funded by FWD.us that were in support of oil drilling and the Keystone XL pipeline, and in opposition to Obamacare among Republican US senators who back immigration reform.[clarification needed][126]
By the way, Zuckerberg ait running for president or any elective office…
The richest man in the country, Gates has given $15,000 to both the Democratic and Republican congressional campaign committees this year, but he’s given almost exclusively to Democratic candidates this cycle. In 2012 he gave $5,000 to Barack Obama and $12,900 to the DNC.
He’s not running either
Your turn…

side-note:
A 2011 report by the Center for Responsive Politics showed that over the previous two decades of U.S. elections, Donald Trump made contributions to campaigns of both Republican Party and Democratic Party candidates, with the top 10 recipients of his political contributions being six Democrats and four Republicans.[204] After 2011, his campaign contributions were more favorable to Republicans than to Democrats.[205]
