Trump's Tax Returns

m.huffpost.com/us/entry/us_5884e7cfe4b070d8cad32f89/amp

Since most of you autists will ignore my source simply because of who published it (facts are irrelevant apparently) I'll summarize. Although I dunno why I bother because this board is an echo chamber for people who ignore the opinions and facts of others but I'll go ahead and summarize it anyway.

>Trump promised to release his returns, stating that his audit prevented him from doing so
The IRS has stated that is untrue and he is free to release them.

Conway even doubled down on this:

But as the IRS said, the audit is a nonfactor.

>Trump administration says "no one cares about this information".
In reality at least 50% to 74% of US citizens do care.

>Trump has released his tax returns before while being audited
cnn.com/2016/05/11/politics/donald-trump-casino-licenses-tax-returns/

So tell me why he won't. What's he hiding?

Can't wait to see how you defend this.

I'm a cpa and I fail to see why anyone gives a shit about this.

Whats going to be found? Russian connections? Its obvious he's dodging taxes like another person in the 1%. People with enough money and resources are going to find away around taxes

GFKYS

>Cuckington post

maybe try not to lead with this

I LITERALLY don't give a single fuck what's in his taxes, there isn't a single reason for me to care. What he does with his money is his business. Literally couldn't care any less

What is a cpa?

>I fail to see why anyone gives a shit about this

Because he broke his promise? Because it could prove/disprove any sort of the accusations that he is involved with Russia in any way? There's a lot of reasons.

>Whats going to be found?
You tell me.

Holy fuck you're a brainless cuck.

>What is a cpa?
Want to know how I know there's nothing you could learn from Trump's tax return?

Yes.

Do you want to waste everyones time with inane posts?

yeah OP isn't gonna learn shit from the tax returns, but a forensic accountant will have a field day
new york times got a page from his 1995 tax returns and it turned into a media storm lol
now their journalists are required to check their mailboxes every day (the person sent it anonymously to a random new york times journalist [in all honestly it was probably one of trump's ex wives])

>What is a cpa?

are you retarded

nytimes.com/2016/10/02/us/politics/donald-trump-taxes.html

since you fags obviously didn't pay attention during the campaign

Yeah, he said he would release his taxes but I just talked to him and he said he changed his mind and you should go fuck yourself.

My bet is he used loopholes he said he would shut down and it will be another smear campaign like "trumps tshirts are made in China", which if that were the case I don't care.

If it were something big id be interested, and it is annoying that he promised and won't do it. Probably trying to avoid the smear campaign and further division

If he did anything illegal, don't you think the IRS would already be on his ass? It's probably what we already know, he used his high IQ to get around stupid laws -Legally- and so the media will bitch about it but they can't do anything because it was all legal. However, the shitlibs will still be mad at him because they are jelly

nydailynews.com/news/politics/giuliani-christie-trump-genius-skirting-income-taxes-article-1.2814651
and, of course, Chris Christie and Rudy Giuliani called Trump a genius for his tax dodging capabilities

>In reality at least 50% to 74% of US citizens do care
Says who, the (((polls)))? Nobody gives a shit, either stop shilling that laughable shithole of a site or stop being such a monumental faggot and lurk instead of posting.

This. And all it does is fuel the fire

I really don't care.

>You tell me.
Told you what I think is going to be found. the worst thing could be that he owes debt somehow to Russian banks from one of his many business ventures. I imagine it would be very easy for Vladimir Putin to get access to those banks and to black mail Trump with his own debt.

But that all seems highly unlikely to me

/thread

>Because he broke his promise?
You mean like every other president?

>So tell me why he won't. What's he hiding?
- burger banks won't lend to him (Dodd-Frank -- it's why he wants to abolish it -- "my friends can't get loans"... kek)
- $600mil debt to chinks
- obviously dealing with russkies
- went broke from the day his daddy started bank-rolling him
- as soon as daddy died, he was on his own and summarily went bust
- apple of incestuous eye quoted as saying that they were as broke as a street bum
- "TEN BILLION DOLLARS" laughed at by every analyst
- likely worth well below $1bil -- less debts = fuck-all

when's he gonna lock her up
and drain the swamp

>So tell me why he won't. What's he hiding?
To be perfectly honest, he's probably just being a cunt, but maybe he remembers Romney lost after admitting he paid almost nothing in taxes due o a combination of creative accounting (co-mingling personal funds with church funds) and loss-carryover.
Trump probably pays almost no taxes for similar reasons, and doesn't want to repeat Romney's mistake.

This is pretty much the most likely reason I'm thinking. As you said though it's pretty fucking annoying that he won't and I feel like he's alienating more people by not releasing them than he would by doing so.

I really don't give a fuck either if he didn't pay taxes for 2 decades so long as it was all legal.

Not releasing them raises questions though.

They're auditing him, so they already are on his ass.

Well if you consider that fact that probably every single person who voted Hillary wants to see this information and add in the Trump voters (myself included) who also would like to see it, that'sa fairly accurate estimate.

Must be nice being ignorant and living in an echo chamber.

>But that all seems highly unlikely to me

So then why not just release them? Nobody but super far left retards give a shit that he didn't pay taxes. It's the Republican voters and moderates who matter and they do care.

he already acknowledged in the first debate that he doesn't pay personal income taxes
it would have been the end of any other politician's career, but nobody seemed to care

>They're auditing him, so they already are on his ass.

He gets audited every year. All the big dogs do, because surprise surprise, they try to hide their money to not pay taxes.

Good point.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Have you ever even done taxes?
EVERYTHING is open to opinion and interpretation.
I'd bet my dick there's a LOT of stuff in his return that's questionable.
Even if I'm wrong, he's probably paying less taxes than the average wetback, and that could hurt his base of red-state white trash.

>probably every single person who voted Hillary wants to see this information
They're retards and losers, who gives a good goddamn what they want?

>and add in the Trump voters (myself included) who also would like to see it
Why? There's literally no point to it.

>myself included
Yeah fucking right Shareblue, you're going to have to do better than that.

Yes but at that point he said he would release them yet he hasn't.

If that's true, and I'm not saying it isn't because it makes sense, it's still irrelevant because the IRS has already said he's free to release them.

OP you should read about Trump Soho; Trump's involvement in that was shady as fuck

My grandparents' business got audited every year, it's a fucking scam the IRS pulls to get extra money out of people.

>I'm not saying it isn't because it makes sense, it's still irrelevant because the IRS has already said he's free to release them.

Why the FUCK would Trump release tax returns under audit. Literally 100 million people would comb through that shit to make sure that every i was dotted and every t was crossed. There would be literally no way that they wouldn't find something wrong.

Then we'd hear CNN autistically screech about it for the next 4 years.

So yeah, you're a moron.

>You mean like every other president?
Which other president didn't release their tax returns?
It's especially grievous coming from Trump, considering he spent the last 8 years demanding Obama release various pieces of paperwork:
>I want to see his birth certificate
>No, not the regular one, I want the "long form" one.
>I want to see his college transcripts

This last one is extra laughable considering Trump has a degree from Harvard business school, despite being functionally illiterate.

>Must be nice being ignorant and living in an echo chamber.

It is. :-)

He shouldn't have promised to release them if he never intended to in the first place, but I don't really care, especially if he does other things he's said. So far, he's been doing fine, so my apathetic attitude about it will continue.

so they are going back to the taxes again? no one gives a fuck you leftist traitor faggot. YOU LOST and it's going to get very bad for you and everyone like you

The latest polls show that Trump only has 30% approval rating. That means that after you account for the margin of error, 75% of Americans think Trump is a bad president.

The tv told me.

practically nobody before the Nixon / JFK race

So what? Trump already doesn't give a fuck about the media and neither do his supporters.

Barring any damning evidence in his returns releasing them would only exonerate him from these stupid accusations from the left, appease some Republicans, and perhaps sway some independents to his cause.

Thanks for the moron quip though.

>>probably every single person who voted Hillary wants to see this information
>They're retards and losers, who gives a good goddamn what they want?
They're also the majority of voters. The president _should_ care what they want ,even if the glitchy system gave him a one-time pass.
Remember:
Nixon took office with 43% of the vote.
Bush took office after losing the popular vote.
BUT: Both won re-election with a majority of the popular vote.
Trump shouldn't assume he'll get lucky a second time.

That's not how cuck is used friend, I'm not brainless because I don't give a fuck but whatever you say sweetheart

What do you know about taxes? Are you a cpa? Asking these questions kind of I dictates you don't know very much about them.

if Trump doesn't bring jobs back to Wisconsin and western PA he has no chance of securing those votes the next time around
implying, that is, that he doesn't resign after going full-blown cabin fever mode in the next 6 months

Nobody asked you, detritus.

Probably because there is suspicion of either illegal activities and/or connections to foreign governments.

>what is a cpa?
Liberal arts major detected

Wants Trump's tax returns. Doesn't know what a CPA is. I'm guessing you read his financials too user?

>I'm not brainless because I don't give a fuck
Right because not caring about the politics of your country isn't brainless...

Why are you even in my thread or on this board if you don't care? Just to shitpost?

Enlighten me then.

Also, I only asked 1 question.

>practically nobody before the Nixon / JFK race
So....
Eisenhower, Truman, FDR and everybody elected before any living voter was born?
Don't forget, the very first tax returns only date back to about 20 years before FDR was elected.
The Nixon/JFK race was 1960, the race before that was 1956. You had to be 21 to vote back then.
If you were 21 in 1958, you'd be 79 this time around.
So ALL modern Presidents (except Trump) have released their returns.
What was your point again?

>In reality at least 50% to 74% of US citizens do care.

Biased poll, I certainly don't care.

You can't do your own taxes. What do you think you'll find in Trump's?

All he has to do is fulfill his campaign promises that people who aren't retards and losers care about and he'll sail through. The libs are in shambles, the paid protestors couldn't even keep up the momentum for a month, trust in the media is at an all-time low and getting worse every day, and -most importantly- Americans love voting for incumbents.

I'm not a "liberal arts major" I'm a veteran and I'm learning plumbing.

How is that even relevant?

the point is that it has been going on for 60 years, not exactly sure why you went in some huge fit about the ages of voters

>Americans love voting for incumbents.
Sadly, this is true.

Hey...
..why won't Hillary...
...release her emails?

>not exactly sure why you went in some huge fit about the ages of voters
I thought you meant he was fairly normal for not releasing them because presidents from long ago also didn't release their returns.

>Trump says he doesn't want to release them while under audit
>HURRR DURR TRUMP SAID HE CANNOT BY LAW RELEASE THEM DURRRR
Stopped reading there. 0/10 bait.

>..why won't Hillary...
>...release her emails?
Why won't Bush?

You don't even need to consider the poll smart guy.

All Democratic voters + some independents + some Republicans = at the very barest possible minimum 50%.

Me personally, nothing. I'm not a tax professional but there are experts on both sides who could review them.

Just fyi I do my taxes for my entire family.

One of his campaign promises was to release his taxes..

Did you even watch the debates?

I think what you mean is "keep some of his promises but not all".

no my point was that it has been standard practice since the jfk / nixon election
I'm bored of this thread, good night!

Literally a strawman. Fuck off and make your own thread.

One is a legality that applies so one can actual BE President lawfully;

The other is meaningless and no one at least half a brain, or a real job actually gives a shit. And, he legally doesn't have to release this info.

..Hey...
..why won't Hillary...
...release her emails?

Its no mystery Trump hasn't released his taxes yet because he's spent the last 2 years running a campaign and now he's in the White House. He's a busy guy he's got better stuff to do.

>your own thread
I like these, you make them and stimulate them so they reach the top of the board

Hey...
..why won't Hillary...
...release her emails?

I'm not sure about this, but if he were doing any sort of foreign deals, wouldn't he have arrested since the IRS would have known about this? Especially considering during the presidential race, and before that, I believe the IRS was used as another political arm of Obama, targeting conservative groups and individuals.

He doesn't want to release them and he doesn't have to. Even if his tax burden was zero last year I don't care as long as he followed the code, which I'm sure he did.

Realistically, he probably had a tax loss carryforward from the recession and hasn't paid income taxes recently. Which is just fine, his industry was hit particularity hard and his losses should offset future gains. But if he released them, low information voters would throw a fit after being misled by media characterizations. Very few people really understand the tax code, including reporters.

Plus, he already won so fuckoff.

I'm a CFA and a former tax accountant.

I appreciate your trying user but the cucks in this board won't care. Trump could do literally anything and Sup Forumstards would fall in line. As long Trump keeps pissing off liberals, Sup Forums will gladly take any and all corruption that comes with the Trump administration.

who gives a fuck? the fourth amendment guarantees us security in person and papers, you have no right to see his tax returns. he is under continuous audit, if he were doing anything wrong the IRS would already have leaked it and fined him. the fact that other presidents were showoff puppets is not relevant in any way at all.

so what? nobody cares, why should he have to release his taxes? I agree with him on all the big issues, so I couldn't care less about his taxes as long as he follows through on the rest.
Libtards like you are just harping on this because you're looking for anything to discredit him because he threatens your agenda. In summary, go fuck yourself.

I will, thanks.

Why does it matter where the information is coming from when it's literally verifiable facts?

Oh right... echo chamber. Dissenting opinions aren't allowed, even if they are backed up by facts.

Don't know how to do that.

>Trump: Hey random aide, release my tax returns.
>Random aide: Ok.

Hey wouldn't even be the one doing it. Would take 5 seconds for him to tell someone to.

and your side is a bunch of literal pedophile fascist hypocrites that can't bear a dissenting opinion. go suck a nigger dick shithead.

I don't really care, cuz the guy is fucking bulletproof
he would have to livestream a beheading video to get kicked out of office at this point

Incorrect, but he has yet to do anything especially egregious. Him being so buddy buddy with Israel is kind of irking me, but the rest has been good if not entertaining.

>I don't care as long as he followed the code

On second thought I don't care if he cheated on his taxes my professional opinion. He could literally shoot someone in the middle of the street and I wouldn't care, they had it coming.

He jut doesn't want to reveal his kikery power level.

>Well if you consider that fact that probably every single person who voted Hillary wants to see this information
They lost, as in they didn't win, they have no power.

>suspicion of either illegal activities

There's no way for anyone (even myself) to make a determination like this without examining his internal records.

>connections to foreign governments
He's an international businessman with a global brand. He has plenty of foreign-sourced income - but income tax records won't likely reveal dealings with foreign governments.
