Haven't you heard? The Tax Return Witch is on the Loose! >

Toss a coin to your Witcher! >

I'm not sure Geralt could be convinced Trump is a Sylvan, but it's worth a shot. >

I'm sure he gives a lucid explanation of why he promised to give them in the first place. >

"I never said that" >

Reporter - "You, Donald Trump, stated that you wanted to release your tax returns, but were unable."
Donald Trump - "Donald Trump? Never heard of him." >

"Fake news! If you look at what I said, if you go back to the tapes, you'll see, you'll see that I was talking about my tax returns because I was asked about them, and they're big, beautiful tax returns full of numbers, the best numbers, but you'll see that when I was asked about them we were talking about how much I would be doing to make the US great again, and we did that. We did that. Best economy. Best stock market. Best presidency since at least Lincoln, if not ever, all because we knew that I'd be able to do what I could do to my company -- which is very successful by the way -- and the country would be a great success, too." >

"Some people" say he did nothing wrong. >

The reason "witch hunts" are bad is because witchcraft doesn't exist, so it's accusing people of a crime that's physically impossible.
You can't call investigating real crimes "witch hunts". >

Its used to describe investigations to root out some hidden enemy, and how they often spiral out of control. Which even in trumps version of events this is not.
Correct term would be fishing expedition. Investigateing a target for anything you can in the hopes of finding something. >

Totally like a fishing expedition, except instead of fishing you just went to the fish market and got mad when fish were there. It’s like the stupidest most open known secret possible. 
It’s like touching the hot stove and being mad because I said it would burn and it did. >

I just meant in his mind, even there he can't get the terminology right. >

How dare you look at my return and find I have more crimes I committed!!! >

More like find out he is worth a lot less money than he claims. >

They contain very little information but they are very complicated!
LMAO. >

Every single article I've seen on his taxes that discusses likely fraudulent deductions and valuations misses the big picture.
What we do know so far from these and other returns indicates that he has a decades long pattern of claiming BILLIONS in losses without EVER showing a sustained profit.
...  while simultaneously buying up one resort after another for cash.
It's not what any one return shows so much as what they collectively show.
...  which is exactly what Al Capone's showed.
What no one has done is to trace the money used to buy the resorts...  just like the purchase money used for his "NFT" racket.
Is he a tax cheat?  Of course, but that pales in comparison to a lifetime of illegal money laundering.
Fortunately for investigators, he's so greedy and desperate to avoid taxes that he only launders his OWN ill-gotten gains when absolutely necessary (remember he was comfortable having the Russian mob paying his legal fees WHILE in office).
...  which means a forensic analysis of his funding can reveal the rotten foundation of the whole house of cards.
...  just like it revealed that his Trump Moscow project was funded with stolen money supplied by his Russian mobster / FBI informant partner. >

I thought nothing was built in Moscow. >

They might mean Trump SoHo, which Felix Sater and Trump partnered on, and was mostly financed by Russian "investors".   Trump Tower Moscow was going to be their next project. >

The Moscow project fell through.  Not for lack of trying, mind you.  It was right on track when candidate Trump lied about it repeatedly.
It was later revealed in court documents that the funding for it was stolen cash from Azerbaijan (sp?)
Trump Soho was money fraudulently obtained from other investors.... a whole set of other felonies where Trump once again skated due to Sater's agreement woth the DOJ which actually provided falsified documents for him to hide the fact that he was a convicted fraudster while acting as an FBI informant.
Just like the massive Trump Tower Russian mob bust, Sater was deemed such a potential threat / asset for national security that he was allowed to keep all his fraudulently obtained assets...  which were co-owned by Trump... who then conveniently put Sater's FBI handlers on his payroll right after they chose NOT to name him in the 19 Trump Tower Russian mob indictments.
Whoever said crime doesn't pay never met Trump and his Russian mob besties. >

--which I, for one, will be sure not to watch. >

I like how he insists very few if any people would understand his returns. Dude, this is my profession, but even my most basic client knows that $750 in income taxes for the year is questionable for a man who claims to be a billionaire. It should make people angry. >

Just because he's a Stable Genius? But really too stupid to count to 10. Is why he thinks his returns are complicated. 2+2 is complicated to him. >

He acts like someone that git a partial lobotomy. >

Years of stimulant abuse, combined with clogged arteries.    His damaged brain ain't getting enough oxygen. >

If his returns are so accurate, then why is he upset? >

They make him look far less wealthy than he claims >

Because it’s all a house of cards… the worlds greatest con man >

He’s afraid his cult followers will find out that he really is a total fraudster and quit sending him money >

Nah, won’t happen. That would require them to admit they were conned and that requires a level of introspection that his remaining supporter are incapable of. >

Nah, they can segment to the next grifter while still never admitting they were wrong for liking Trump. It's actually quite common for conservatives to flip flop without ever admitting fault.
Trump should be terrified. >

Christ he is such a whiny bastard. How anyone deals with that festering pile is beyond me >

Fellas, we found the witch! >

One thing left to do... throw him in the water and so if he floats like a turd. >

Afraid >

I wonder how many takes it took to do that three minute video?  There's loads of places where you can tell it has been edited >

Another tRump rant? Strangely, my give-O-shit meter is pegged at zero. >

Also note the projection: "Biden definitely did something!" >

Let me get this straight.   He's complaining about his tax returns being obtained even though he was clearly given preferential treatment by the IRS since they didn't audit him for 2 years.  Yeah, that's so unfair.  
This coming from the guy who stole government documents and state secrets. >

Trump very clearly promised to release his tax returns many many times during his 'Presidency' saying he couldn't at the time because he was under a tax audit.
And we all know that Trump is very much a man of his word.(/S) 
Which makes his current mental health break down all the more distressing to watch. And I do hope all those that care about him rally round and help him to get the treatment that he deserves.. >


And I do hope all those that care about him

I don't think those people exist. >

lol.. it certainly isn't easy being supportive of those who have such endless tantrums.. >

Does he really think anybody cares what he has to say anymore? His victim schtick is getting pretty old. >

Says the ONLY Presdient going back to Nixon to NOT  release his taxes.
In Spring 2020, Trumps administration bragged about how he was donating his quarterly POTUS salary back to the government to fight COVID.
That was about $100k
A week or two later, secret service approved a $150k+ expenditure to rent golf carts at ONE of Trumps properties for the summer.
The right wing website Judicial Watch kept a close eye on every dollar Obama spent on personal travel while in office under the pretense that the President is accountable for that.
Then they STOPPED doing that after Trumps first year in office when it became clear he would exceed Obamas 8 year total in under four.
As President, thus guy sponged off of taxpayer money to pay for his vacations at his pricey private resorts.
You can point out this very simple math to a "fiscal conservative" MAGA hatstand and it won't phase them. >


You can point out this very simple math to a "fiscal conservative" MAGA hatstand and it won't phase them.

That’s because this is their notion and understanding of what it means to be “fiscally conservative”. They’ve been manipulated and trained to believe this for decades:
“The only thing wrong with the U.S. economy is the failure of the Republican Party to play Santa Claus.” – Jude Wanniski, March 6, 1976
“The stock market is falling, in part a reaction to GOP threats to shut down the government: it’s all part of their plan.
Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen last week warned us that the GOP is about to use Jude Wanniski’s “Two Santa Clauses” fraud again to damage Biden’s economy and our standing in the world. And, sure enough, Mitch McConnell verified it when he said last week there would be “zero” Republican votes to raise the debt ceiling.
Yellen responded yesterday by telling The Wall Street Journal that if the Republicans force a shutdown of the U.S. government like they did to Obama in 2011, “We would emerge from this crisis a permanently weaker nation.” But the GOP is adamant: they have their strategy and they’re sticking to it.
Here’s how it works, laid it out in simple summary:
First, the Two Santas strategy dictates, when Republicans control the White House they must spend money like a drunken Santa and cut taxes to run up the U.S. debt as far and as fast as possible.
This produces three results: it stimulates the economy thus making people think that the GOP can produce a good economy; it raises the debt dramatically; and it makes people think that Republicans are the “tax-cut Santa Clauses.”
Second, when a Democrat is in the White House, Republicans must scream about the national debt as loudly and frantically as possible, freaking out about how “our children will have to pay for it!” and “we have to cut spending to solve the crisis!” Shut down the government, crash the stock market, and damage US credibility around the world if necessary to stop Democrats from spending money.
This will force the Democrats in power to cut their own social safety net programs and even Social Security, thus shooting their welfare-of-the-American-people Santa Claus right in the face.
And, sure enough, here we are now with a Democrat in the White House. Following their Two Santas strategy, Republicans are again squealing about the national debt and refusing to raise the debt ceiling, imperiling Biden’s economic recovery as well as his Build Back Better plans.
And, once again, the media is covering it as a “Biden Crisis!” rather than what it really is: a cynical political and media strategy devised by Republicans in the 1970s, fine-tuned in the 1980s and 1990s, and rolled out every time a Democrat is in the White House.”
This article linked was written in September of 2021, but remove the specific people named and it could’ve been written in the 90s. Or the mid-2000s. Or any time since the 70s when a Democratic President has been elected. It’s a tired and entirely predictable playbook.
