IT BEGINS: First Democrat-Majority Bill to Target Trump Tax Returns in January

If it was a mandate from the people, why didn’t the take the senate? Hmmmm NOT a mandate.

Under the proposed law no (and I feel that any judge should find it an unconstitutional provision)

Under the 1920’s law basically they do have to have a crime they suspect to get them (you know the as part of an investigation they can request ANYONE’S tas returns from the IRS).

24 of 35:races and 12 million more voters in the senate voting, not even close.

But yet with this mandate you claim, the D’s didn’t take the senate to push through this mandate.

No mandate. Sorry.

It’s called “investigation” and “oversight”. And it isnt just crimes, but also to see if there is corruption or conflicts of interest… Checks and balances. If you want authoritative government then ok.

No one ever considered the “Senate in play” for a flip since 42 republican seats were protected! It is a meaningless point.

Not buying it. Dem’s have said since the day after the election they would do everything in their power to remove The Don from office. That’s not oversight my friend. They are weaponizing congress against a political rivan. That’s not oversight.

A couple of solid “R” seats flipped. So why didn’t this mandate flip more of them? Why did the R’s INCREASE numbers in the senate?

Not a mandate in any way shape or form. They “madate” you claim left The Don clear path to do as he see’s fit in chosing members of the administration that need senate approvale, and left The Don a clear Path in appointing judges (with senate approval) as he see’s fit.

Not a mandate by any streatch of the immagination.

That’s what every party does. Try to gain power in every legal way possible. What are you so afraid of in trumps tax returns? Perhaps Russian transactions that hes lied about to the public but maybe reported to the IRS?

Is that illegal?

If people lied to Congress about it.

Your post said HE (as in trump) liked to the people.

How is that illegal again?

(or are you moving the goalposts)

I never said Trump lying to people is illegal.

Which Dem’s?

Got links to their quotes where they state “they would do everything in their power to remove The Don from office”.

Thanks!

So then why does congress need to look into if he lied to the people again?

You’re asking why Congress should look into whether or not our President has lied about business dealings with Russia, or any other conflicts of interest, by seeing if his taxes show activity of said dealings? Unreal… basic checks and balances.

are the business dealings illegal?

How are the a conflict if after he became president another family member started running the business (remember he wasn’t elected till nov '16 and it wasn’t a certainty at all up until them)? If family members are running the business to be the most profitable possible – how would that be different from a person running it as a supposedly blind trust (even though everyone knows what businesses trump owns) running it in the most profitable way possible?

You mean, the lie that only Trump’s camp and Russia knew about …. you believe it’s a regular thing for Russia to have this kind of compromat on a president?

One reason for investigation is because there may be other items of compromat Russia has on Trump, other than just that one.

“Business dealings” like offering a $50 million penthouse to Putin free of charge is certainly something he should have disclosed. Not illegal for a private citizen, but questions of loyalty to country certainly come to mind when politicians engage in such behavior.

Was this done while he was a private citizen? You know before he was elected in Nov '16? And right now it’s just an allegation from someone who either A) lied before or is B) lying now. Unless you have other substansive proof other than Cohan saying he lied previous because he thought he’d get a pardon.
