Where are Trump's taxes?

[FSogol]

This should be a drumbeat. Why is the media silent about his taxes? It should be brought up by every Democratic pundit, talking head, politician, etc.

1. Good question...

2. K & R

3. now now, the media wouldn't want to embarrass the don

15. Yes, Chuck the Todd already told use ...

bring out facts (and challenging false statements) is not the job of journalists ... unless, of course, it might tighten the horse race.

[FSogol]

20. Why would Chuck Todd know anything about journalism?

[greymattermom]

4. Maybe they are saving it for the debates

to see him lose it live on stage, even more than is already happening.

5. Pressure, pressure, pressure

[onecent]

6. I didn't think anybody could be running for president, without having

this thing in order. It confuses me too.....NO ONE has ever done this before!!?

[ehrnst]

7. I think that candidates releasing their previous 10 years of tax forms should be part

of the Democratic Platform, but I'm not holding my breath.

[FSogol]

8. Not releasing his taxes is part of what sank Romney. n/t

[Zambero]

11. In 2012 Romney at least disclosed his most recent tax return

Trump is disclosing nothing, And that nothing means a lot is being hidden, and for a reason.

[gademocrat7]

9. Will he ever release them?

[mopinko]

10. i think he would rather bow out

than show that he isnt really rich.

a better question, imho, is are you going to put all your holdings in a blind trust like other presidents have done?

[Zambero]

12. What might be revealed if he did release them

He is not as wealthy as he claims to be
His business interests are marginal or losing money
He has massive liability including unpaid debts.
He pays little or no taxes
His tax deductions are questionable
He contributes little or nothing to charities

Of course this speculation could be or partially or wholly incorrect, and is based solely on Trump's deliberate lack of transparency. Only one way to find out. RELEASE THEM.

[FSogol]

21. All of the above. n/t

[OnDoutside]

13. And when he says "It's under audit, I'll release them when that's over", no one challenges him on it

I wish someone would follow that up, with "Well you're under audit by the American people now, which is more important ?"

[FSogol]

14. +1. We need to challenge the media on this issue. Trump needs to be called out on it. n/t

[skip fox]

16. Yes

Let's beat our drums daily.

Actually some of the Republicans who are trying to stop Trump are making the argument that their candidate should show his or her returns to guarantee the voting public he or she is fiscally intelligent (i.e., upright) enough to hold the reins of government.

[ffr]

17. Duh! This is why you don't run the DNC. They know better.

[safeinOhio]

18. Take a page from repubs and FOX

Lets just make up crazy shit about what's in his taxes and the only way he will be able to prove it's not true is to release them.

[discntnt_irny_srcsm]

19. I always figured he was a rich...

...1%er who had shelters, accountants and hot and cold running bankruptcies.
