this decision by SCOTUS simply allows the NYC DA and the NY AG to publicly reference the Tax Returns they probably already had
what I find humorous is these are DJT’s personal tax returns, I bet they really arent complicated at all because he probably doesnt have much personal income. He most likely pays himself enough to pay his personal expenses, have disposable income available for him and his family and meet whatever income thresholds he needs to maintain his personal credit and financial obligations.

I guess - most of the articles don't tell us whether they're after his personal 1040 or the returns of all the other businesses he has, too.

I would be shocked if Jim O*Brien could read anything into those returns, especially without any sort of support documentation.

For what?
We still don't have an answer, other than politics.

Imagine losing sleep over whether or not a DA had Trump's tax returns.

Ok, then lay it all out there. If he's so confident, shouldn't he say what was done and what charges could be brought based on what he saw? Sure, but he did not say a damn thing...hmmm.
You will be able to hear this "journalist" scream into the sky halfway across the country when nothing comes of his tax filings for the past decade.

He can't, because none of them have a clue what they're looking for.

I find it interesting that so many posters are willing to assume that Donald Trump spent four years engaged in multi-dimensional galactic chess, but are unwilling to accept that an experienced and successful prosecutor MIGHT have planned an investigation the details of which he simply has not yet disclosed to the public, because the law does not require him to disclose that information at this time.

The folks who present this argument are usually the same people who insist that Trump’s returns are far too complicated to be understood by the teams of forensic accountants working for the prosecution.
i've never heard anything of that sort. you're making that up. nobody assumes that forensic accountants don't understand tax law. the argument is that the average american has no idea about tax credits, carrying loss forward, etc. and that's very valid.
i've heard people say his returns are too complicated for an average person, especially a person in the media (Rachel Maddow finding out he did indeed pay a lot of taxes was gold) to understand. that has validity.
When his taxes got out last fall and everybody was all "OMG he only paid $750 in taxes" but then don't have the reading comprehension to see that he wrote a 4mm check that year as well on top of just not realizing his tax liability at that moment was $750.
there are also people that think Amazon gets away with not paying taxes every year, so the criticism against people not understanding is valid.

Trump "is very afraid of what's in these documents, I think," because they put him in serious criminal jeopardy, O'Brien said, but he isn't the only one implicated.
Here is a clue, Tim. The very best corporate tax attornies that money can buy signed off on the documents and sent them to the IRS. Trump is not afraid of shite.

To paraphrase, that poster said that the D.A. could not possibly understand Trump's tax returns. Similar sentiment gets posted in pretty-much every thread addressing this topic.

Really? I would guess because law school is a lot more demanding.
Let's be honest, Master's in Accounting/Tax exist to get you to the hours to sit for the CPA. Nobody comes out of those programs and is able to independently do a tax return and or provision. It's a money grab degree and a cinch.

So you agree the reporter is sensationalizing and basically lying about what he saw and says he knows?

That's probably accurate to an extent, though. The DA probably is slightly imbecilic. I remember one liberal DA bragging about wanting to "take Trump down" for no reason at all, lol.
A DA is not a tax attorney. Not an expert on tax laws, property valuation laws or other tax/accounting related matters. I'd assume that they have a retained liberal resource that is trained in these things to help with their fishing expedition.

In general, law school tends to be "about" concepts, whereas "tax" tends to be VERY MUCH about memorizing specifics.
