Yet he states he will release once the audit is done. But he has been saying that for 4 years. While also trying to block the release.
RichardBehind
The thing is it does not matter. At least 46% of you still vote for him. I lost all hope in usa when he was first elected. No education
Tinymurder
Sadly, the issue isn't people voting stupidly. It's people voting emotionally and the issue isn't unique to the right or the left.
Imaginatiooooooooooon
The education system in the USA is awful. Its sad people are this stupid, the government failed us.
I would love to hear Trump supporters explain why they don't see this as a problem and don't want it to be looked at. Genuinely.

Well, except in the case of hunters emails, it actually is fake. So fake, in fact, that not even Fox News would air the story.

Because "thats what businessmen do, make deals. Some will be shady but who cares if they are shady, it is still good business"

Youre probably right. But would that be the case if it was the other way around?
like if it was a story about a Trump shady business deal? We have a lot of those, and they're very well sourced/researched
Why doesn't anyone believe Rudy "If there's grass on the field, play with your balls" Giuliani????

Why yes, yes he was. In front of a woman he thought to be underage.

I’m going to be that guy, but I don’t think there’s any evidence to support he thought the girl was actually 15 before Borat came in.

Legit have seen “We don’t need to see a billionaire’s financial records from before he got in office. We need to see the records of (1/2)”

DysgraphicProgrammer
I'm not worried too much about small millionaires. The difference between me and a millionaire is a billionaires rounding error
Chefroy
I want both.
Me too but only one refuses to provide proof of anything.
I don't think Biden even DID become a millionaire while being VP. This 2015 source has him below that:
https://www.bustle.com/articles/107605-joe-bidens-net-worth-doesnt-make-him-the-poorest-man-in-congress-but-its-still-a
Biden's always been one of the poorest members of government compared to his position/station. Another source:
cadburyegg
Except in 2017 he WAS in office. What we are seeing in Trump's base is just wilful ignorance at this point.
merdock379
Ignorance implies the potential to learn. They are stupid, stupid, stupid people.
TheDayTheBrainStoodStill
Well, Trump certainly didn't become a billionaire in office... because he's poor. Not that his cult cares about that either.
iamahappyperson
I seem to recall Biden borrowing money from Obama for the medical treatments for his son.

Considering the costs of medical care in the US, wouldn't surprise me. Still can't understand why Americans hate universal healthcare...
ThatsNoMoonThatsAGalaxy
“I pay a hundred dollars a year for my healthcare, and I do my best to avoid going. If I pay for someone else, they won’t avoid going, and—
Me neither. After traveling extensively throughout the world, I have come to realize how bad the US system really is.
eigeress
A co-worker said that before Biden stuff recently. He DOES NOT CARE ABOUT DUMPY'S TAXES. but mention the birth certificate of Obama...
omnicorpse
Pretty sur if there had been any issue with Obamas birth certificate, Rep's would have had him kicked out in his first year.
He might not have been president. It is a rule. But only Trumpster went the racist route to disqualify him.

It'll go like this: 1. He didn't do it 2. He did it, but it's not that bad 3. He did it to own the libs 4. Hilary's emails

Nah, schau dir seine comments an. Er is einfach nur ein Arsch und ein Troll, einer der schlechtesten noch dazu. Ne Kleine Attentionwhore
But in order to thrive as a country, you need to bridge those gaps. Don't be fooled by the elusive force of separation.
What in his history makes you think he would allow a process that makes him answer to this? Would blocking that be a dealbreaker? Or NBD?
He’ll obstruct, not answer to it, and you’ll forget and then move on and keep supporting him.
doihavetobeclever

They've already voted. It doesn't matter

They just claim it's because he's a business man while still believing they biden's "speculated" (made up) ties to China are damning.
He did it to own the libs
Dadto5
They will say it's"fake news"
Because he owns property in China, as he does in the UK. Why wouldn't funds be managed in an account associated with that country?
Nocky252
Why wouldn't he declare it then, if it's not a big deal? And what about the £17mil revenue received in 2017 while he was in office?
becauseurwrong
Think. One is he's supposed to divest as prez. Second is he at the very least did not release this info on his govt financial statement.
The account was required by the Chinese government and existed to hold funds in order to pay taxes.

Oh so it wasn't a big deal at all I see! So why was he hiding it?

[deleted]
You don't have the criminal network to hide millions or billions. Release the gdamn taxes.
Why won't he release where he is making money, then? Maybe because it's illegal shit or he talks big about America first, while selling it?
Because he’s the fucking President and he should have divested from all his fucking businesses.

Exactly. The divestment requirement was for this exact kind of BS that Trump has been pulling his entire life.

Even if they found anything THERE WOULDNT BE JUSTICE FOR IT JUST LIKE ALL THE OTHER ILLEGAL SHIT HES DONE
Jokerthehulk
He’ll just say he wasn’t keeping it a secret. He just never mentioned it because no one asked.
EricksonOle
Trump fighting to keep those records secret like:
ProfessorChaos
The most surprising part of all this is that he was actually able to keep $17 million for that long.

Oh I thought it that was Old joe Biden taking that China $$&

Sorry to hear you are on the crack.

Yet he states he will release once the audit is done. But he has been saying that for 4 years. While also trying to block the release.
RichardBehind
The thing is it does not matter. At least 46% of you still vote for him. I lost all hope in usa when he was first elected. No education
Tinymurder
Sadly, the issue isn't people voting stupidly. It's people voting emotionally and the issue isn't unique to the right or the left.
Imaginatiooooooooooon
The education system in the USA is awful. Its sad people are this stupid, the government failed us.
DamnedAustin
I would love to hear Trump supporters explain why they don't see this as a problem and don't want it to be looked at. Genuinely.
sNadeine
Theyll claim that theyre voting for the party and not the president.
Lucky246
Oh simple. Its fake
dotnetbeast
Their reply would be either "Buttery Mails" (typed on purpose) or "Obama is a terrorist"
ubot82
Theyll probably say the same as the left will about Hunters emails. That its all lies!
Criscartersfallguys
Well, except in the case of hunters emails, it actually is fake. So fake, in fact, that not even Fox News would air the story.
GrandPubabofMoldistan
Because "thats what businessmen do, make deals. Some will be shady but who cares if they are shady, it is still good business"
GrandPubabofMoldistan
Followed up by Biden did shady business in China and should be punished
meresin2718
"He's a businessman with business in China." Straight from a cult member when I showed him a clip about the story.
VoidofLostKnowledge
Why wouldn't you have a bank account in the associated country in which you own property?

What they don’t get is you can be president or you can be a businessman, but you can’t be both, that’s what a conflict of interest is

Why did they try so hard to cover it up? Serious question
KartFnocker
have they? I see most just staying away from the entire story because it has more holes than swiss cheese
ubot82
Youre probably right. But would that be the case if it was the other way around?
KartFnocker
like if it was a story about a Trump shady business deal? We have a lot of those, and they're very well sourced/researched

Why yes, yes he was. In front of a woman he thought to be underage.

I’m going to be that guy, but I don’t think there’s any evidence to support he thought the girl was actually 15 before Borat came in.

I'm not worried too much about small millionaires. The difference between me and a millionaire is a billionaires rounding error
Chefroy
I want both.

I don't think Biden even DID become a millionaire while being VP. This 2015 source has him below that:

cadburyegg
Except in 2017 he WAS in office. What we are seeing in Trump's base is just wilful ignorance at this point.
merdock379
Ignorance implies the potential to learn. They are stupid, stupid, stupid people.
TheDayTheBrainStoodStill
Well, Trump certainly didn't become a billionaire in office... because he's poor. Not that his cult cares about that either.
iamahappyperson
I seem to recall Biden borrowing money from Obama for the medical treatments for his son.

Considering the costs of medical care in the US, wouldn't surprise me. Still can't understand why Americans hate universal healthcare...

iamahappyperson
Me neither. After traveling extensively throughout the world, I have come to realize how bad the US system really is.
eigeress
A co-worker said that before Biden stuff recently. He DOES NOT CARE ABOUT DUMPY'S TAXES. but mention the birth certificate of Obama...
omnicorpse
Pretty sur if there had been any issue with Obamas birth certificate, Rep's would have had him kicked out in his first year.
eigeress
He might not have been president. It is a rule. But only Trumpster went the racist route to disqualify him.
MSB3000
It'll go like this: 1. He didn't do it 2. He did it, but it's not that bad 3. He did it to own the libs 4. Hilary's emails

Well... regular peoples incometaxes are thorougly scrutinized, and if they don’t add upp we are fucked. That doesn’t apply to the rich.

Because it's a blind trust. Look it up if you don't understand he has no control over anything with it!

Easy, it's fake news. Anything that's negative about Trump is faked by the deep state. It's morons all the way down
RuthGatorBinsburg
Trump supporter here. He should answer to this, absolutely. If he or his kids broke the law, bring charges!
meganical
I mean, nearly EVERYONE who has worked for him since his campaign has been arrested for illegal activity related to him. Not a coincidence
DarkBeerPotato
There is no way that a profile named RuthGatorBinsburg is a Trump supporters.
xLeeInThe253x
C'mon now...you know they all broke the law and that Donald Chump is unfit to run a lemonade stand, let alone the country.

Charges by whom? Barr, his AG henchman in charge of kissing his bone-spurred ass?
SnowpersonHitInTheFaceWithALackOfCreativity
The Liberals tried but you said they were crazy, even though they had evidence, and were blocked from getting more

Senate still has their filthy fingers in their ears. No looking for evidence= innocent and still grifty in chief.

Hi from Germany! Great, Trump supporter responded respectfully, you could echo that. Rational talk is hard and not always fruitful.

Nah, schau dir seine comments an. Er is einfach nur ein Arsch und ein Troll, einer der schlechtesten noch dazu. Ne Kleine Attentionwhore
cyaton
But in order to thrive as a country, you need to bridge those gaps. Don't be fooled by the elusive force of separation.
GoW1n
What in his history makes you think he would allow a process that makes him answer to this? Would blocking that be a dealbreaker? Or NBD?
GoW1n
He’ll obstruct, not answer to it, and you’ll forget and then move on and keep supporting him.
doihavetobeclever
Um, okay like I appreciate you taking this one seriously, but what about, you know... everything else?How can you still be a Trump supporter
blinkonceforyes
Every response I’ve gotten to this has been “great economy”. Ya know, the economy he inherited from Obama...smh
AlfredDPrince
I'd love to hear the answer to this one too
Hiboredimdad
Id be curious too. Honestly the guys own personal tweets are enough for me to say he's unfit.
ChloePrice
I am a bit confused. How do you show common sense in this instance but support Trump when stuff like this has happened dozens of times b4?
SnowpersonHitInTheFaceWithALackOfCreativity
They've already voted. It doesn't matter
PaintedSlate
They don't like that there are no repercussions or oversight, but it doesn't matter, because they tolerate it, and that's all it takes now.

Who cares what he makes and how much he takes out. People don’t care what you make and take out. None of anybody’s business period
TheYoungGod
Truthfully, I don't care. I know literally everyone in politics is using it for financial gain somehow. So it's just an irrelevant variable.
ABitAngry
Trump supporter here, want to see the records and law upheld if it was broken. I think you’ll find most non-extremists feel the same
DamnedAustin
If most Republicans felt that way, I feel like he would have been removed from office a long time ago.
preparationh67
If you support trump you an extremist and a dumbass trash person that Jesus hates.

Sorry you failed at life. Nobody to blame but you.

Every politician is corrupt. You’re naive if you think otherwise.

Did someone say not every politician is corrupt? Also, do you personally have evidence that every politician is corrupt? :)
alex5775
They just claim it's because he's a business man while still believing they biden's "speculated" (made up) ties to China are damning.
ActionJohnnie
He did it to own the libs
Dadto5
They will say it's"fake news"
VoidofLostKnowledge
Because he owns property in China, as he does in the UK. Why wouldn't funds be managed in an account associated with that country?
Nocky252
Why wouldn't he declare it then, if it's not a big deal? And what about the £17mil revenue received in 2017 while he was in office?
becauseurwrong
Think. One is he's supposed to divest as prez. Second is he at the very least did not release this info on his govt financial statement.
VoidofLostKnowledge
The account was required by the Chinese government and existed to hold funds in order to pay taxes.
ThatNoPicklePeeThatNoPumpARum
Oh so it wasn't a big deal at all I see! So why was he hiding it?
IWouldDoThings
Oh they dont care. I'm from central VA and it's about 50/50 trump here, and they do not care. They dont believe and they dont care.

Why won't he release where he is making money, then? Maybe because it's illegal shit or he talks big about America first, while selling it?
FistfulOfAssholes
Because he’s the fucking President and he should have divested from all his fucking businesses.
SweatyNoah
Exactly. The divestment requirement was for this exact kind of BS that Trump has been pulling his entire life.
InkyBlinkyPinkyAndClyde
Who put 17 million dollars in it while Trump was President? You don't think that's something that should be looked into?
