CNN Victor Blackwell got me to thinking this morning about dipshit's taxes

Last edited Sun Sep 4, 2016, 09:19 AM - Edit history (1)

First I do like him he has been pretty good on calling bullshit from surrogates.

Okay, it got me to thinking about why dipshit wouldn't want his tax records released. So kind of putting together a list of possible reasons.

1. Yep, it's true he is having a audit and he depends on his team of lawyers so much he lets them make his decisions for him.

2. The charitable donations amounts and other possible wrong doing similar to his giving money from his foundation to Bondi's election fund. Has he giving direct contributions but filed them as charity donations?

3. Donations to churches. Has he even done that other then to his buddy in Louisiana?

4. He's not worth as much as he says. Now here is where it can get interesting also. What is the possible reasons?
A. He doesn't want the American people to know he doesn't have as much as he puts on. And he is a fraud?
B. He doesn't want his creditors to know how much he is actually worth and shoots down any chance of getting more loans?
C. He doesn't want his employees to know he may not be able to make payroll?
D. He doesn't want his stock/name to tank if it comes out?
E. He is afraid someone will start repo'ing stuff to make sure they get their payment?
F. He is afraid his "friends" will abandon him if they find out and he will be alone with no one to talk at.
G. He has stacked loans. I.E. He took loans to pay off interest on previous loans because he couldn't pay on them. In other words his total loans may be a lot less then his total assets.
H. All of the above?

Added another to the list. Moved previous G to H

Russian oligarchs with ties to crime bosses, and how indebted he is to them. Some of them have close ties to Putin. Those kind of people expect Trump to do what they tell him, or pay the consequences. They do not want any kind of public exposure.

every maggot question with a slight against Hillary.

52% of people don't believe there is an audit, Boris - "are you calling maggot a liar, Hillary has been lying for 20 years"

Will the maggot release the letter from the IRS that says he is being audited? Boris - "Hillary hasn't had a press conference in bla, bla,bla"

He also doesn't want us to know how much he owes to Russia & China.

I've had the thought that tRump was channeling Benito and not so much Adolf. Someone here has been calling him Cheeto Benito which made me think of the Frito Bandito who made a bunch of lawyers rich by suing FritoLay. My Latino friends were really pissed because they loved the Frito Bandito. Anyway that's another story (twisted mind goes off on tangential journeys). So Cheeto Bandito seemed fitting since he is orange, he cheats and steals plus he make our Hillary into a cartoon and whats sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander.

Have a great day and don't spray you monitor, phone or TV with cheetos

BTW-I always enjoy your posts.

Is since he supposedly being audited all the way back to 2009? When would he actually release the returns? In 2050 since he appears to be audited continually. I mean really the I'll get back to you is so bogus he will never release them. They say he is a straight shooter why doesn't he come out and say go F..K yourself and and the American voter. I wish one of the media would stick it to him and ask if it's because he is scamming the IRS and is afraid he will be put in jail. If no answer then do Joy on him and say "I'll take that as a yes". (You can tell I like her. She doesn't take sh.. from the surrogates. )

He is not "Crooked Donald"?
He flings that name at Hilary, but why aren't people up in arms that he is not releasing his tax returns. They would tell us so much about him.
How do we really know he is not tied up with the Russsians?
Why is nobody asking him about his plans for his business empire if he were to be elected?

I'd bet that as soon as they start, (mind you if they ever do,) asking him some hard questions he'll quit. Won't matter if its the day before the election. I've known people just like him and have had to deal with them in my lifetime and my bet is on that tRump will fold first time he's really confronted. He's a fraud and he knows some of us out here knows he's a fraud too. He's scared of those of us who knows 'his kind', can point out 'his kind' and will point out 'his kind', who aren't afraid of 'his kind'


He is TRASH, RUBBISH, A SNAKE IN THE GRASS


I'd rather deal with a real live rattlesnake as tRump, he'll bite you ever time. The rattlesnake might not

if he's calling Hillary "crooked" I'd bet good money that he is, and the evidence is in his taxes.

I think the biggest thing is he doesnt want his gop followers to see how much he has donated to democrats. Second, his annual income wont be what people think it SHOULD be.
But you wont see anything about total worth in a tax return. And he probably has much of his income from properties on different business returns, which he wouldnt release anyway
His PERSONAL return is probably too bland for his worshippers

4. He's not worth as much as he says. Now here is where it can get interesting also. What is the possible reasons?

1. He furnishes all of his homes like 17th century French Whorehouses.
2. Food poisoning payoffs for sick consumers who ate Trump Steak.
3. Russian Supermodel mail order brides ain't cheap, which leads up to..
4. Viagra.
5. Pallets of Aqua Net hair Spray.
