    1. only if they can charge him with State violations because he will give himself a pardon for everything else

    2. @mark anderson Pence (or who ever is next, if not Pence it’ll be Pelosi) would have to do that. (I believe) he can’t pardon himself.

    3. @Justin Credible they already brought the subject up 2 years ago…and so far, nowhere does it say he can’t,,,,he will pardon himself and everyone in his entire family…..gotta pray for state charges….pardon doesnt cover those

    1. I disagree. Cody Jarret was so smart he copped to a robbery to get out of a murder rap. The IRS HAS Trump’s tax returns, many people HAVE seen them. Trying to hide his tax returns may just be another distraction so that no one notices something far more horrific.

    2. Luke5:30 And((( their scribes and the Pharisees)) complained against His disciples, saying, “Why do You eat and drink with tax collectors and ((sinners))?”

      31 Jesus answered and said to them, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. 32 I have not come to call the righteous, but ((sinners)), to repentance.”

  1. Lady needs to change your wording- he’s not going out of his way to PROTECT his taxes, he’s going out of his way to HIDE his taxes.

  2. Personally I believe the “great economy” is a picture into why Donald Trump doesn’t want us to see his tax returns. Since he has taken office he has more than doubled the federal budget deficit, and if you study Donald Trump you realize it fits a behavioral pattern which is the appearance of wealth and success and casting this perception, while on paper it’s all loans/credit/debt. His branding business is centered around this very concept of selling a lie, and while people think there might be some evil tie or super corruption to find there, I think this person is just obsessed with himself and doesn’t want the world to see his lie for what it is. This is the very thing Donald Trump has always done for decades.

    1. And traitor trump is a criminal and has tried to bribe Ukraine to investigate a fake corruption to aid traitor to get elected.

    2. Trump spent money he borrowed then filed bankruptcy.
      He’s spending our tax dollars while our tax dollars takes care of him as POTUS. On and off the golf courses.

    1. @Andre Ward You can’t impeach a President for doing his job you nitwit. You Democrats are gullible and being led like sheep. You spout the same old crap but never even question Biden’s Son and Joe Biden’s announcement that he had a prosecutor fired to protect his son and the millions of dollars bribed from the Ukraine. Why?

    2. Luke5:30 And((( their scribes and the Pharisees)) complained against His disciples, saying, “Why do You eat and drink with tax collectors and ((sinners))?”

      31 Jesus answered and said to them, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. 32 I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.”

    3. @Jonathan Hiatt He is the New York Elite? He re-built a lot and did a lot for New York In the 80’s. When Bloomberg and Cuomo were never around. Get real with the facts fuckass…

  3. I still remember the day he said at one of his campaign rallies before election, “if elected, I’ll release my tax returns”. Haha, Trump is a whole joke.

    1. Actually, I am still waiting for the “very interesting” information his private detectives found in Hawaii regarding Obama’s birth certificate. Oh, and also waiting for Melania’s press conference explaining her immigration process.

  4. A crook once decided to run for the highest office in the land as a publicity stunt…
    To his own astonishment he won…
    Now the skeletons in his closets are rattling to burst out
    The man has his back against the doors trying desperately to prevent them from coming out
    The stench however is the ‘dead giveaway’…

    1. @Wahyu Indrasto Uh oh,it’s the grammer police again.Who gives a f@ck about the spelling.The important thing is that you were proven wrong again.Go watch a hillary documentary or something.I am busy at work so you can sit home and get free stuff.

  5. What should we say of a country where the prison population is held to a higher standard than its president?

    1. brian Lohse What would happen if YOU ignored a federal subpoena?
      You’re defending this ignorant man who steps all over the Constitution—which he’s never read.
      This is what this maga stuff really looks like.

    2. @brian Lohse … What a vapid response from an insipid individual. Deflect. Detract. Disparage. Like Trump, you have no substance.

    1. FELICIA PARKER ♦️Drumph has lied 14,000+ times since he was inaugurated… He Is trying to outdo all the politicians of history with his recordbreaking momentum spewing LIE after LIE and total disregard for factchecking to PROVE Drumph a LIAR again and again. Total loser, FAILURE as a FAKE businessman and a wannabe gangster who will never be anything but a FAILURE at everything. Frump!!!!

  6. Whats in his Taxes – He’s a poor fraud who lived off his father & when he lost ALL of that money – now has the russian mob financing him.

    1. He’s always had Russia financing him . After 3 bankruptcies, russia is the only one who would give him money . Horrible, horrible business man …….
      Elected because of a reality show 🤦‍♀️
      People are seriously so ridiculously stupid !

    2. @Don ta 4 of Giuliani’s associates were just arrested for illegally funneling Russian funds to Trump and the RNC.

      Just another case of the “I know you are, but what am I?” defense Trump uses.

      Most people stop using that comeback about the 3rd grade, because even 8 year olds know how weak and pathetic it is. But it works for Trump because most of his followers have the maturity of a 2nd grader.

      The funny thing is, nobody he accuses has ever been arrested for anything that he accused them of while his people have. He already has 5 times as many convicted felons from his administration as all of the Democrat administrations since Eisenhower, combined.

    3. @Don ta Why hasn’t there been a single grand jury on any of the conspiracy theories you guys keep spouting. Even the 10 Benghazi investigations over 4 years found no wrong doing.

      Nothing you say about Biden is actually true while Trump and his daughter have their products made in China. Ivanka uses her position to get trademark licenses from China.

      You are just another Trump brown shirt accusing others of what Trump is doing.

  7. What is Trump hiding and why? Release those tax returns or lock him up for disobeying the law! NOBODY is above the law!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

    1. Arthur , Hello ,
      You are correct! No one is above the law . Rump and the rest are trying to change that. IMAGINE if Democrats
      Pulled this crap !!! It wouldn’t wash if the shoe was on the other foot.
      D.

  8. is there anything more astonishing than this: We still have this guy as a viable candidate for reelection?! What’s wrong with this country anyway? Death wish or what?

    1. we’re doomed….lazy democrat voters in key states and stupid republicans…its all a fascist needs to suckceed

    1. Penni Bingaman I DON’T THINK THAT BECAUSE WASN’T EVEN THINKING ABOUT YOU AT ALL ! BUT APPARENTLY YOU NEED ATTENTION THERE I GAVE YOU SOME I LOVE YOU PENNI WE’RE ALL JUST AMERICANS TRYING TO MAKE IT THROUGH A DARK TIME IN OUR HISTORY ! I WENT OVERBOARD WITH WORDS THE OTHER DAY I AM USUALLY THOUGHTFUL AND STRIVE TO BE IMPECCABLE WITH WHAT I SAY I DO NOT CARE TO WASTE ANYMORE ENERGY CLASHING WITH FOLKS I DON’T EVEN KNOW ! GOOD DAY !

    1. Andy Zeno
      Looking for the silver lining here, I guess you could make the consoling observation that at least it’s not Organised crime.

    2. @Tots Mini Crime cartels get busted where the rule of law remains intact.
      But we’ve had three years of the GOP joining hands with evangelical pseudo-Christians to sing a hymn of praise which starts with
      “O Donny Boy, the courts, the court’s he’s packing…”
      What’s more, Trump has subverted the DoJ, most recently and most blatantly by installing his handpicked lickspittle Attorney General, after several false starts. A ventriloquist’s dummy has more backbone than Barr.

  9. No wonder the president always looks “down”, he’s buried under legal bills. Notice he’s beginning to sell off his properties?

  10. I still remember the good old days when our country’s standards were so high we impeached a sitting president for just one lie.

    1. agreed..what has he got over some people that they are not impeaching him???Hes broken all the rules,and they just let him do it…even tells his cronies not to testify and they don;t??Whats with that???Just unreal to me..whats wrong with our gov??? So disgusted with all of them.

    2. Precisely, and Nixon wanted dirt on his opponents in the DNC just like 45. Clinton admitted his lie and most Americans forgave his philandering. IQ45 lies incessantly and never admits it. What a 👶🍼😕

    3. Judith osorio its seems to me the old days vanished ,and the old warriors vanished we living in trumpy time
