Fun fact.....approx $1 of every $6 in taxes is not paid every single year on average....some years it's worse than that.

Fun fact - who are the people not reporting? illegals? cash jobs? Billionaires? CEO's? business owners ?

lol

nobody believes Bill and Hillary were clean. The Clinton Foundation was the bought and paid for clearly - and most political candidates sell their souls and have decades of promises to keep when they make office

Trump is not a politician, he's not bound that way

IF Trump produces his taxes and he's clean, then what? move on to something else to try and "get him" on right ?

If he makes ana addition error the democrats will lose their mind.  It's a horrible concept, but that's the democratic party.

But in all seriousness.  Is this constitutional?  Can the legislature make up qualifications to be president that arent in the constitution?

Of course. Which explains H.R.7369 currently in committee which requires all candidates for president be white humans, preferably from an Ivy League school or successful entertainment property and in possession of at least one testicle.

I haven't really read anything on it, but it seems like a great question to me.  The Constitution seems pretty clear on what the requirements are, I'm not sure you can just add some

I assume virtually nothing on this board anymore

I dont think I understand what youre saying.  Are you saying he cheated on his returns or not?  If yes, please provide proof.

Here’s your proof, he’s Donald J Trump. (Resolved that in short order)

Not you GB.  If I get a TO for giving posters I consider friends trouble, so be it.

Turns out that lazyIke was the perfect alias.

Not sure this would fly federally, but I can see it easily being required by states to be on their ballots.  Every state has all kinds of requirements...this would just be another one.

So Hillary still qualifies.

She's got a bag full of them.

Exactly.  Likely over four score and seven in that bag.

this seems to me like an excellent bill that most would get behind

 

[Stealthycat]

I would say there is 0.1% chance Trump gets charged for any wrongdoing as far as taxes

That's why the IRS hasn't charged him with anything over the last ... well, all his life. He might donate very little, he might use tax shelters that only the rich (with their massive tax teams) can find and use. Illegal?  Please  -that makes very little sense.
