'Not fair': Trump rages over Supreme Court decisions involving his financial records

President Donald Trump assailed a pair of Supreme Court rulings on Thursday pertaining to his personal financial records in a Twitter rant that called the decisions "not fair."

In a rambling series of tweets, Trump attacked Democrats and his predecessor former President Barack Obama, arguing he is being unfairly targeted while others don't face scrutiny.

The decisions were not a clear-cut loss for Trump, who is unlikely to be forced into disclosing his tax returns before voters weigh his reelection bid in November, but the court also refused to side with his argument that the presidency offers him protection from investigation.

"This is all a political prosecution" Trump tweeted. "I won the Mueller Witch Hunt, and others, and now I have to keep fighting in a politically corrupt New York. Not fair to this Presidency or Administration!"

"Mr. President, even Richard Nixon released his tax returns," Biden said. "Mr. President, release your tax returns or shut up."

It’s the real thing, which is why he reaches for it like a thumb to suckle.

It just amazes me that a grown adult is such a whiner, and in public, too. Most adults at least try to do their whining in private.

Did your lawyer fall asleep during the trial? Did the cops withhold or hide exculpatory evidence? Did your DNA not match what was collected from the scene of the crime? Was the jury systematically restricted from overprivileged white assholes? Were you denied due process? What wasn't fair, Needy Amin? Tell us all how a ruling that you have in the past claimed you wanted is unfair to you? We're all ears, fuckstick.
