Let me put it another way....

If he were a private citizen applying for a job at the White House to iron table cloths, he would have to release all of his tax returns and disclose a lot more in the security background check. Wouldn't we expect just as much disclosure for someone applying for the Commander in Chief Job- in the very least, the same background check as the most basic of staff.

We all cheered when DCLeaks dumped the DNC emails, many of which were private correspondence, and Wikileaks put out Hillary's emails and Clinton Foundation records.

Wikileaks will be releasing a lot more of Hillary's emails on Tuesday. Are we supposed to be disturbed or cheer her private correspondence released.

Remember Clinton Foundation financial records were released just like this, and we cheered that.  You can't get it both ways. Either we want the light shining on all of it or none of it.

The fact of the matter is these are no longer private citizens, they are applying for the very public job, and the most important job, and both of them have been trying to hide information that you or I would be required to release if we were applying for far less.

I understand and agree...but you would volunteer to do this...I am sure you might think differently if your records were stolen and published.

as an ex wife and probably still being supported by Trump she would be VERY stupid to give these records to the NYT's...and I doubt she did..

There are many entities that that could have Trump's tax returns as part of their records, particularly banks. Trump is a fool to think he can hide all this particularly with the Clinton machine and the Democratic party on the other end. Obama won his senate seat by leaking the divorce records of his opponent just before the election. Crooked is how they operate but Trump is no different. Remember all the crap about leaking things about Cruz and his wife from Trump? The National Enquirer is run by a close friend of Trump.

Tax law isn't theory, its law.  :shrug:

Trump uses the law to minimize his payment of taxes...in other news water is wet.

I'm talking about your theory as to why his income doesn't show up in tax returns.  From his accountant's explanation of the never-ending "audit," it's possible he is still working through NOLs.  Imagine what's going to happen if 25 years of returns are leaked, and he hasn't paid one damn cent.  You don't think he had a moral obligation to share this information with the GOP during the primaries?

A few thoughts on Trump's zero-dollar tax liability. (1) As a political issue, this will probably matter. Voters don't like stuff like this.

Had Trump not lied about his net worth and not manipulated the tax system he'd be able to release his tax returns and stand by them as an example of an self made upright honest citizen. But he's not. And he therefore has no business being anywhere near the most powerful job on the planet. He's a con man to his core.

An illegal immigrant working at fast food pays a higher percentage of income in taxes than it appears @realDonaldTrump pays.

That actually is an interesting part, who gave it to the NYT.. the return address came from Trump Tower.

Maybe it came from Melania.  You never know.  I wonder how any woman could live with such a pig.

So when is WikiLeaks going to do its data dump on Hillary and Trump?

It's a horse race to the bottom!

Did anyone see the SNL debate skit?

Yes! Hilarious! Baldwin was virtually channeling Trump.

I am laughing because it was him he was talking about.  We all know that "bad" person Donald Trump.

Actually, even that's not the case for a website like this. We could be asked to not post any content. We don't fall under fair use protections. It is a gray area because this isn't an overt business, but as it can be pointed out it does have some revenue generation, it could be considered a competing news interest and not fall under fair use provisions.

Well... if you want to look at the whole webpage, then posting the entire article is far less than 10% (in total number of bytes) of the entire webpage from whence it was excerpted.

Just sayin'...

   Appears he wasted allot of money buying 'all that influence' of NY Politicians.  His own are eating him alive.

The IRS didn't do this.  This came from an outside source.  1995....hmmmmmmm......did Marla Maples have a copy?
@sinkspur

If she had a lawyer during the divorce, maybe HE thought about it and saw to it she had one since she was a signer on that return.  She wouldn't leak it herself but perhaps the lawyer saw it was leaked.

Yeah, I'm a communist.  Who knew?

I never bought the gadget you have to have for your TV to work once they switched over to whatever (you can tell I am an expert on these matters).  I thought when I purchased a new TV that it would be built in, but my TV channels still don't work.  Apparently I have to have cable for any channels to work.  I'm so used to watching only DVDs that I don't usually miss it, except for nights like tonight.  I'm dying to see that skit.

Good. I was concerned that you picked your name out of thin air because you never had a TV. That would be just plain wierd.
