Adam Schiff? @RepAdamSchiff 27m27 minutes agoWe get you won the electoral college. Really, we do. That's WHY you must release your taxes - to show you have no conflicts of interest.

(15,543 posts)as the russians hacked American democracy to install a freaking draft & tax dodger, Comrade Casino, and to stack the Senate illegitimately and also steal a batch of House seats.
The whole freaking republican-russian "government" is illegitimate: BASTARD REPUBLICAN FAKE GOVERNMENT.

(12,002 posts)We don't hear enough about the fact that Trump's Russian collusion also affected Senate and House races.
ILLEGITIMATE REPUBLICAN CONGRESS. ILLEGITIMATE PRESIDENT. ILLEGITIMATE SUPREME COURT.

(70,388 posts)the ONLY way that a few, carefully picked counties can be hacked and swing the election.
just like last time it happened. a "crappy" ballot design swung palm beach county, and a few well placed road blocks, and presto- a puppet/thug in the white house.

How Comey figured into this, I'm still trying to figure that out.

(9,675 posts)They probably have some audio of you colluding with the Russians to throw the election as well.
I'm sure the audio together with your tax returns will send you to prison, Mr. Trump.
The tens of millions of Americans that are demanding you to release your tax returns are simply trying to accelerate the process of putting you behind bars.
We understand your resistance.

(640 posts)...against his party representatives at meetings..they will be called out for not complyng with constituent demands...It will call out the Pukes for what they really are. So, just keep doing it...don't give up! They will become fearful or stay stupid and eventually lose their jobs.
How about that???!!!

This being said, I'm sure he would've reneged on this promise as well.

(2,003 posts)The Constitution is pretty clear on presidential eligibility and I don't believe releasing tax returns is part of this.
Ideally, the voters should demand it. Unfortunately, the only voters demanding that Trump release his tax returns had no intentions of voting for him no matter what he did and Trump himself understood this.

(2,003 posts)...but they're not marching in the street demanding it.
When Trump runs for re-election, there will be another opportunity for voters to ask to see his tax returns. At that point, he can make a calculated decision whether or not showing them will net him more votes and act accordingly.
Personally, I don't see him ever releasing his pre-White House tax returns.
