exactly, the media should be held just as accountable as the rest of us.

I really need to find the video of her crying. It needs to be gif'd and looped. It needs to go viral, be in times square.

I really hope it kills itself.

Huh,.. just like Martin i went to bed everyone was laughing at her... I wake up trump has orchestrated the entire thing... huh...

Kind of reminds me of GWB... everyone mocked his intelligence on a daily basis... yet in the same breath would blame him for every single problem in the world.

You folks need to decide is Trump an idiot or not... He cannot be the puppet master if he can barely tie his shoes.

Did she really cry last night?

Nice.

Twice! The second time was the worst. It was at the end. The guy who comes on after her was telling her how amazing she was. She started getting all teary eyed talking about what she had been able to expose. She has officially fallen our of reality. I haven't been able to find a full clip of the show but will keep looking.

just surfing news sources this morning and heard that madsow and msnbc are probably relying on a supreme court ruling that stolen or leaked tax info can be published if they didn't have anything to do with obtaining it.

sometimes SCOTUS comes out with bonehead rulings.

Classic leftist mindset being displayed here.

Many people were so pleased they got thi return. Maddie herself had hours to examine them. She hyped it, made conspiracy theories for an hour, and shoes the returns.

When it doesn't turn out as she and some other leftists wanted, instead of taking blame for their stupidity, they immediately jump to another conspiracy that trump leaked them on purpose.

Nothing is ever these people's fault. Just like the election, it has to be a conspiracy if they lose, it can't be that they're just not as smart or popular as they thought.

Over here guys! I got the TAXES!!

TAXES over here!!

What about the russians?! Forget them, we got the TAXES!! Let's go!!!

Needs the ol wa waaaaaaa sound.

Thank you all for a VERY entertaining thread! I went to bed somewhere around page 25, and was surprised to see 11 more pages.



What a bunch of comedians! And I mean that as a compliment!

Personally, I don't care about how much Trump paid in taxes any given year. What I am interested in is if he's making money from, or owing to, foreign governments, and if those financial ties or debts could compromise his ability to govern and make decisions based on what's good for the American people, rather than his family business, his business partners or foreign governments he may be indebted to.

So you have some suspicions, and therefore you demand that your suspicions are allayed by the production of documents that won't actually allay your suspicions. Sounds sensible.

You do realise the list of his creditors has already been published, right?

I'm sure it's been asked but I haven't seen it - is this legal?

I think she is fine in terms of the law, but the fat guy who was on her show, who provided her with the document could get called to reveal his source, I believe.

“Client Copy”: Did Donald Trump Leak That Tax Return to Maddow?

So. Either Donald Trump leaked this himself, or someone with a “client copy” did. Given that there appears to be nothing embarrassing about the return whatsoever, and the world is laughing at Maddow, my money’s on Trump being the leaker.

This was my first thought. He has close ties with NBC. And the best defense is an offense.

Stealth release a non-controversial return where you paid out of your ass and then it takes the wind out of the argument to release more returns, which could possibly show less tax paid or questionable foreign ties.

a reply to: Arnie123

Thats fine and dandy, however your making the same mistake introvert made by suggesting that same thing.

I think if it were the case as you have suggested, then something within the inner channels would have come to light. The whole narrative on his returns were to see if he did, in fact pay or not pay taxes.

I don't think it's a mistake to question potential conflicts of interest. My concerns have never been about whether or not he paid taxes and it's very naive to think that if there are conflicts it would come out through "inner channels".

I wouldn't.

But tell me, would you be ok with someone (the president of the United States) claiming you were a felon while providing no evidence?

Phage, you've really fallen off.

a reply to: EchoesInTime

Even more brilliant (?) if Trump sent it to him. Gets the healthcare repeal/replace debacle off the burner for a while and gins up more conspiracy theories for his base.
