Would it be my right to see your tax returns to make sure you’re not under paying ? It’s bad enough we are paying government employees to pick apart all of our lives now . So what are those returns supposedly going to help you make a decision on , that he to rich or not as rich as people think . For once we have a non politician turn his life upside down for the betterment of our country and still people retreat to there corners instead of agreeing that he may just have pointed out a way forward out of the stagnation the last couple decades

Because people who truly care about this country understand the importance of spending their time on issues such as illegal immigration rather than wasting it on ridiculous bullshite.

This thread keeps teetering back-and-forth between whether Trump should be REQUIRED to release his returns (no) and whether there are perfectly-valid reasons that a voter might want to see them (yes).


I see that. But that will be the only way anyone sees them...if he is judicially compelled.

I think you are probably correct, despite his promises during the campaign to release them upon completion by the IRS of his “routine audit.”

Why is that a controversial position?



Would you also like to see Barry Soetoro's college records at Occidental College, to see who funded his college education and how ? Would you like to see the record where he legally changed his name back to Barack Obama and was no longer a citizen of Indonesia ?

I'll hang up and await your response.

You don't have that right. If you can't trust someone who won't show you his tax returns, then you shouldn't have voted him in.

I come in peace so dont taze me....serious question here:
Assuming you want Trump to submit tax return(s), for you how many years and for what reason(s)? Just trying to consider different perspectives from my own.

Because, like you, most Americans have no idea how taxes work.

i know this will come as a shock to dim ignorant people who watch CNN but his taxes dont have any line items saying putin paid my $10k to get me elected


as for your question, taxes just like your banking info is private for a reason and no one, NO ONE, has any right to see it unless they get a warrant after showing clear evidence of a possible crime

That's the most ironic part...the very people they put on a pedestal set them up to be the butt of the joke. "People, we need you to go out and demand tax returns so you can see who's giving Trump money." Pitiful.

Verifying that the POTUS is paying his fair share of taxes, like the rest of us, is ALL of our business Contrary to popular opinion, he works for us.
