President, tax with a tax that tax uhhhh

Let’s have all of Congress release their last 10 years of tax returns .

And it is still not required!

What about before 40 years

No need to see them

First, who cares. Has IRS seen his tax returns ?! Yes, they have !

More CNBC lies?

As long as the economy is doing as well I couldn’t care less about his tax returns

MittRomney relsased his and lost.

This is ANOTHER reason why Trump is the BEST president in 40 years!

By that logic all presidents will continue to be men

Only taxes I care about are mine and I paid 7k leS this year so thank you realDonaldTrump 🥰🥰🥰

No one care he was elected without it .

At least he earned what money he has the proper way, and not through politics like the majority of other politicians have just like the Clintons, Maxine waters and Bernie. The list goes on. You guys are really grasping at straws. trump 2020 😏🇺🇸

I don't like the guy, but tax returns are NOT required.

No.

Whats your point?

Good! Taxation is theft

It's about time someone stood up against it. Mr. Reagan finally released one year and called it 'an invasion of privacy.' I hope Mr. Trump sticks to his guns.

If it isn't required by law then why does any President have to? If they want it to be available pass a law.

That’s a good thing not a bad thing

in 2025 will release the tax return, wait be patient

Who was the most wealthy president that released tax returns?

So what

Thanks, we all get it. You work for the democrats. I’ll let you know if I need his tax returns for the vote in 2020.

His-learn correct English grammar.

So what! How many of these nominees have done as much to improve the economic health , safety and well being of the average citizen? None.

Lol

Trump keeping his tax policy quiet he don't want no one to know about it

One sane man is all we need.

And every one of them have been on the public dole ‼️ most made millions on our back ‼️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 that’s why they were ask to show their returns ‼️ And gave this country away ‼️ which one put there business at risk to serve !!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸Ans did not take pay 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Also every party for the past forty years has done nothing for our nation! I am glad he stands alone!

Right! I’m going to give more bullets to the enemy. Get real. Cc: POTUS

It’s not a law. Get over it.

I always forget the part of the constitution that requires a candidate to release their taxes.

So this whole thing of releasing purely private tax returns is new!

Because like Al Capone he’s a crime boss‼️

This dude will eat his returns before releasing them👺👹🤡

Maybe for the past 40 years, but before that no President releases their returns. We don’t really need to see his returns. His refusal says allot.

Richard Nixon was the first to release tax returns and it was a stunt.

There is NO requirement to release tax returns . The people who voted for Trump did not care ins 2016 and will NOT in 2020 . It is the Dems who are making a noise who won’t vote for him no matter what .. so what is the point

other presidents didn't have anything to hide like the grifter in chief

Hey look over here!!! Here I am, not caring!! ....3 years later, this is still a non story, but keep putting it out there, gotta push the narrative..

And no one does anything about it

Good.

America did not elect President Trump to see his taxes, we elected him to do the wonderful job he is doing. FACT

I’m sure he won’t show them out of principle because Obama was never made to show his birth certificate so why should he show his taxes. I wouldn’t do it unless there was a law saying I had to to be President.

If there was something illegal don’t you know the IRS would be doing something about it? They would be shouting about it from the rooftops.....Everyone is looking to be the one to bring TRUMP down so if he farts wrong we will know about it.

Yep. Now get over it

...yawn... so what?

I’ve never cared to look at any of them. Releasing them is just a publicity stunt. The average American does not care and like me has never bothered to look.

The better policy may be to keep track of the net worth the career/swamp politician and family members, 10 years prior to winning any office. And then a yearly report there after. How do they go in not being able to pay their mortgage then become multi-millionaires?

So what. Like what difference would it make.

He is hiding something...

Just because they did it doesn't make it right.

😴

And I didn’t care to look at those Presidents’ personal tax returns either. Who legitimately gives a ****?

From this moment, The next sitting presidents shouldn’t show their tax return too.

Is it required by law? If not then let it go and stop the bitching or change the law.

WhoCares realDonaldTrump

I support his decision. Hang tough Mr. President.

There is no point to any president doing this! It has nothing to do with him being President 🤦‍♂️

BECAUSE HE IS HIDING HIS BUSINESS DEALINGS. MAYBE QUESTIONABLE. AND RUSSIAN

And he still beat Hillary and Trump is still your President.

Enough of the biased politics that's msnbc job. Report business news please.

Also no President in the past 40 years has Placed America first, except Reagan! Lowest unemployment numbers in 59 years.

I want to see Trump’s tax returns!! I had to pay approximately $3000 more in taxes this year.

SO WHAT HES NOT REQUIRED TO DO SO UNDER LAW WHY SHOULD ANYONE DO WHATS NOT LEGALLY REQUIRED THIS IS AMERICA NOT RUSSIA

Bottom line; If he wasn’t hiding anything, the tax returns would have been made public. A man with proof of his innocence runs TOWARD those who call him a liar. Trump is hiding. WhartonMyAss

It’s my required.

After record losses...his 'empire' has something to hide for sure...

And running this story again will change his mind?

So Why is this on a purported business network?

And that's why we love him! MAGA Trump20

Still he won elections!!! It means what?

MAGA FakeNews 🇺🇸

I assure you people don’t care. Why would anyone care. Dude cruises his OWN plane. I wish everyone in congress reported their taxes.

He's definitely different than the rest, which explains his Incredible success. Hope others follow his lead in the future.

So

So what leave him alone

There is no law requiring he or any other Presidential candidate do so. Change the law if they wish that be mandatory but have it include the entire Legislative branch as well because that would be far more interesting.

He will step on his crank... Just wait.

So Trump doesn't want to release private information which is not required to either run for or to be POTUS. So what?

why someone can’t refuse to do something that is not legally required?

Horrendously bad businessman
