Well, all his has to do is release his taxes like Biden did and every president since Nixon. Problem solved. Oh.....maybe not.

Personally, wish they would have waited to fill. However, this kind stuff (changing precedent) has been happening for a long time. Obamacare, one of the last big piece of legislation passed comes to mind. To get that type of bill through the Senate you needed 60 votes. The Democrats had 60 until Ted Kennedy died and Scott Brown took over seat leaving them one vote short.
The Democrats used reconciliation to push the bill through. Reconciliation was used to get spending through and never intended for bills like healthcare. As Democrat Rep. Alcee Hastings of the House Rules Committee famously said during the bill process: “We’re making up the rules as we go along.”

He's still a billionaire. And he's been an excellent President; looking out for American workers, defending the unborn, defending the 1st & 2nd amendments, protecting our borders, bringing troops home from places we never should've been, brokering peace deals in the Middle East, as well as implementing economic policies that had the economy roaring until Covid-19 appeared.
That's why he's going to be re-elected in just over a month.

It's a hard pill to swallow when you realize you've been conned.
...he went up late, and I was already up there.

I will enjoy having Gorsuch, Kavanaugh and Barrett on the Supreme Court, but I am of the opinion that the Republicans should have given a hearing to and confirmed Garland in 2016. And if the Democrats win big in November and decide to pack the Court, I will find that to be a bigger travesty than the Garland debacle, but I will feel like the Republicans have more than earned it.

To me, the question now is how did the New York Times get their hands on Trump's taxes when the State of New York, Congress, and the Southern District of New York have all been unsuccessful?
I have a feeling that Trump's just screwing around with everyone here. Or someone's about to get sued for crossing Trump's red line.

He'd have to bring in his tax returns to prove the reporting was bogus. So don't see that happening.
Per the report, Trump’s tax records reveal that he has failed to pay back a whopping $287 million to his lenders since 2010. So much for the record of the self-described “king of debt.”Last edited by bobbiemcgee; 09-28-2020 at 06:09 PM.
