Trump Tax Return - Roscharch Test for the nation

Diving Mullah said:
Let me ask you something...If trump taxes are related and it shows that he owes million upon million to a foreign government, you still would support him and believe he would still put interest of this first?

It would explain a great deal about his openly apologetic position on Russian and Putin which causes so much of the country to say WTF?

I wasn’t attacking you, your choice in the OP and in other threads has been “Rachel Maddow” as a source of fact and opinion building on your part. If you feel this person and your gleeful acceptances of said source is somehow negative to your opinion I suggest stop using said source.

Rachel Maddow is a choice of fact and opinion - that is just reality. She dominated the news last night and today.

Its sad you see it that way.
 
woodsman said:
What attacking? Pointing out the fact that some think this person is worthy of consideration for news or opinion? Well, sorry. As I said in my original post in this thread, It’s amusing that the hard left digest this nonsense and regurgitates.

I guess the letters FOX not being in front of it damn it to hell in the opinion of the far right?

Look, if there was anything to pin on Trump, somebody would have found it already. Before the election for sure.

Time to give it up.

Nothing you said there has anything to do with the post from me you pretended you were replying to.

And pretending you don't see laws broken in all this has everything to do with your post ! :roll:

This probably came from Trump. After all it clearly is stamped on page 2 CLIENT COPY.

So you don't think that someone in the accounting firm or on Trump's staff could have taken a photocopy of the CLIENT COPY, resulting in duplicate copies of Client Copies?
Or someone may have a stamp marked "Client Copy"?

The downside of somebody in the accounting firm risking such a thing is all negative and no positives.

Last nights reveal of what is being advertised as a Donald Trump tax return is getting lots and lots of play among all sectors of the media. MSNBC on the left debuted it and is making it a huge feature of the last ten hours. FOX on the right is featuring it also. And the conclusions both are featuring are wildly different even to the point of being as opposite as they can be. And this is also reflected in American who are on opposite sides of the Trump gulf.

It is as if the Trump return is sort of a political Roscharch Test where the viewer comes to radically different conclusions based on their own personality and experience. One person looks at the ink blot and sees a mother hugging a child while a different person looks at the exact same ink blot and sees a spider consuming its prey while a third swears its a drawing of last nights dinner.

Those who like Trump and support him are focusing on the fact that the man paid 24% in tax - a good and healthy payment - and puts the big lie to the Hilary Clinton debate claim that he does not pay income taxes. And they are right.

Those who oppose Trump will point out the fact that this is but one single year... is far from an actual tax return because none of the supporting schedules are there to see where his money comes from leaving open the issue of foreign attachments and influences. Those who want to know how deep Trump is into Russia have nothing to look at.

Once the hubbub dies down about this particular return... or partial return to be more accurate .... the real question will be the effect it has on conversation about other Trump tax returns. Will this tamp down demand for Trump returns or will it only increase the call for complete return disclosures?

And then we have the entire other side issue of the media and how they do their job and all the other issues that go with that. To be honest, I think that is the more complicated issue and will never be solved. The tax issue is far easier.

This was one of the few times we can say, "Well played" to Trump. Maddow got made a fool of. She is now the poster child of the 21st century version of Geraldo opening Al Capone's vault.
 
haymarket said:
First, Maddow gets the highest ratings on the network.

Second, she made news all over the nation for coming up with something nobody else had.

Third, Maddow has been using the slow build up formula for a month now and its worked very well for her. I would say that yesterday there was twice the build up she normally has and it dragged it out.

Fourth, its obvious you never watch the show and really do not know what you are talking about with her show or the network.

you seem to don't want to read what i post or half read and create your own take on things....and you really did that here?

"her ratings are going to be lower now, its times to replace her and put on another show"

you put the cart before the horse and reflect on the night she screwed up, her continued show of hatefulness, bitterness is not a key to success, accept to those who are burnt up inside with it.

20 minutes of speculative ramblings and then putting forth a tax return which actually made trump look good when you are trying to prove the opposite is a failed recipe.

i know you love her show, however it laid an enormous goose egg

because she is full of hate and bitterness for trump , how does one succeed when you operate on that principle?

If only that were true.
We live in bizarre times, deeply divided. I suspect that someone could reasonably expect to be rewarded in some manner for such an act. I think that you would agree. One's politics seems to have a higher priority than integrity, honor, legality, etc. in some places or with some people.

Could you elaborate on that and cite the law which was broken and who exactly broke it please?
