Appeals court rejects Trump's arguments for withholding tax returns from local prosecutors, setting stage for Supreme Court fight


The ruling by the federal appeals court rejects President Trump's sweeping claims of presidential immunity in an effort to block New York prosecutors from accessing his tax records. This is the second time in recent weeks that a federal appeals court has ruled against the president in his bid to stop investigators from scrutinizing his financial records

Given the problems going on it would stand to reason that the congress would pass a bill to force presidential candidates to release their tax returns

This would seem to be a basic requirement

Do you know who it goes to on the SCOTUS to see about a stay?


RBG.


Now to be fair, she may go with a stay, or she may not.


But considering what Trump's lawyers said I know I'd be holding up their ridiculousness for the world to see. I mean, for his lawyers to use, as an excuse, that Trump could commit even murder while in office and not be prosecuted is insane...


Or will you just claim prog bullshit as usual?

Deutsche Bank has Trump's tax records sought by House Democrats


https://www.axios.com/deutsche-bank...eek-9a2749d7-1a79-40be-92d9-3e7abaa05308.html

If Donald had nothing to hide.....he should have graciously and diplomatically agreed to have them released and prevented all this BS. His "secondary gain"......is all the attention he gets about them. For him......even bad attention is attention.....
No, he shouldn't. An audit would find some indictable stuff in them, I'd bet.

Dude brags about how much he has, how good a deal-maker he is, etc. so why wouldn't he want to show his tax returns to support his bragging, unless he knows he has crossed the line somewhere?
