If Trump pays no federal income tax, the business he runs still produces enormous tax revenue...it pays social security and Medicare tax, it pays salaries to employees which generate all kinds of tax revenue...the business adds value.

But again, the double standard...when Bill Clinton kicks millions of poor people off welfare and tells then to go back to work...that makes him a liberal hero. When Trump says some people are abusing the system, that makes him mean.



Got it.

stay on topic its about trump not about Bill Clinton Now we can see why he does not wish to release his tax returns ... I would guess it would show more about him trying to get over on the government then trying to get by as a business .. not sure how the right who claim to be fiscal conservatives
can twist this into a positive?

if he runs the country the same way as his business, does he know the Country cant right off what it owes .. or does he roll the dice ?

It's about whether o not Trump did anything wrong. If what he did was wrong, than what Hilary did must also be wrong, unless you are saying that she gets special set of rules..

"not sure how the right who claim to be fiscal conservatives

I didn't say it was a positive. Your side is saying it's a negative and it's not. He hasn't even been accused, yet found guilty, of breaking any rules.

WD, Spence, show us the law where a person running for office has to or must show their tax returns....before Mark Cuban was shunned from the republican party he stated that: " if I were running for president I would never show my taxes."
