Easier blackmail or use as leverage if they are not public.

Why didn't the Russians leak Obama's birth certificate?

That's actually a good question.

I think that 'leaking' something as explicitly private as tax returns would have raised more than a few eyebrows. Trump would have had a very easy cause for litigation.

The alleged wiretapping was, one assumes, at least legally acquired through FISA courts. There is no legal means for dumping someone's tax info.

It was helping the Dems as an issue, once leaked no issue because there was nothing there of real importance.

Either because they weren't very interesting or (more likely) it would have been even too politically stinky for him to want to?

The leaks aren't done yet?

Or the deep state Willing to risk jail time hasn't infiltrated the IRS?

There's two.

But you're certain Obama would've found a way to leak them if he could have and if they were in incriminating?

No way this is a gotcha on this board man. You can't "get" lunatics. Not a doubt in mind that the regulars on here had several (ridiculous) reasons ready to roll on this issue. Of course none of those reasons could ever be that Obama is a law abiding human being and would not break the law to ensure that someone loses an election. But I definitely wanted to see what the crazies on here had cooked up on this issue.

He wasn't going to do it even if he had the info. Trump would have countered with Obama's missing college transcripts. Some dogs you let lie.

because there is absolutely nothing there to complain about and if he released it they couldn't keep crying about it.

they just need something, anything, to protest and complain about, they don't want to resolve anything because then the protesters would have to go home and actually try to get a job

What, exactly, is there to cook up about it? I mean, the 2 options are obvious.
