Trump's Taxes

[Horace]

No, I'm in the camp that our political discourse consists mostly of special pleading and when you throw all that away you are left with differences between candidates that are actually worth considering. I suspect that nothing in Trump's taxes will have anything to do with why I would support his presidency over that of certain Democrats.

Nah, I'm ready to send Hunter Biden and his dad to prison.

Just tell me the rules and we'll play to win.

The tax returns will show:

1. President Trump is not as rich as he claims
2. He does not donate to charity
3. He paid money to (allegedly) cover up affairs

The Democrat side will scream
The Republic said will say "no big deal"

Ultimately, both sides will claim they are right and nothing will change.

Do you have any evidence to support those claims, or are you once again just stating your own opinions as if they were facts?

That's not moving the goal posts, it's whataboutism in the game of predicting how people with various biases think.

Just curious: are you in the camp of "even without seeing the evidence, there's nothing in the evidence that should be concerning to anybody"?

The TDS crowd with all their prognostications can’t even predict night and day and now we are supposed to listen to them? They could be right this time but why are we still listening to them? I mean the supermarket tabloid has more truths.

1. A golf course, hotel, and resort in Ireland with tens of millions.
   Marlago in Florida worth tens of millions.
   Trump tower in NYC worth hundreds of millions.
   The thing in Washington DC that used to be a post office or something, worth tens of millions.
   Revenue streams from these properties worth hundreds of millions...

That's just 4 properties out of several, and we've already disposed of the "not as rich as he claims" statement. Besides, when did a mans net worth have anything to do with his ability to be President?

2. It's already been proven that he does donate to charity. In fact, he has donated every dime he's been paid as president. It has also been proven that Obama doesn't donate and never has, neither has Biden.

3. So what? That doesn't mean he actually had an affair. Show me a stained blue dress. Perhaps if Biden had paid that woman he tried to rape she wouldn't be telling about it now.

Jesus..

"We gave a choice to make - vote for Biden and turn the US into another Venezuela, or vote for Trump and remain a free and prosperous nation."

"Gee, that's a tough one... he's not as rich as he says he is, he doesn't give to charity, and he got a little nookie on the side a time or two.... I guess we'll all just have to be another Venezuela and starve to death"........

This nickname you have for people who dislike Trump doesn't bother me. It isn't any sillier than some of the names we others have coined for y'all. But it is entertaining, in a sadocomical way. So to show gratitude I have coined a TDS-style moniker to be applied to you:

Frantic And Rooked over Trump

If you think I am pro Trump you haven’t been paying attention. So you might want to check the origin of the smell.

NP. I get accused of beating on the media drum but every week there is a new BS story that is the big one and turns out to be not news but rhetoric... yet I’m told I’m being repetitive. Haha.

Without content, I’d have nothing to say.

Actually, there is a TDS crowd on both sides:

Those who hate President Trump - Trump Derangement Syndrom
Those who love President Trump - Trump Deification Syndrom

[Horace]

I don't think very many people who hate a certain politician are really interested in distinguishing between support for that politician, and unconditional love for that politician.

[jon-nyc]

Horace does irony too.

[Copper]

The impolite stuff is unfortunate.

There have been 2 choices

Trump or Clinton
Trump or Biden

I don't see a real option.

Picking the best of the two is simple. It is neither love nor support.

Would a better option change the vote? Maybe.

[Horace]

I choose to own the word "support" if I would vote for the politician in a given election. I suppose those who would rather vote for a third party or not vote at all might not have to own "support" even if they do have a preference for one politician over another.

Seems reasonable.

[Horace]

Also courageous.

[jon-nyc]

Are you confessing to cowardice? You’ve never voted, right?

[Horace]

I think I voted once. If it was easy there's nothing that would have stopped me from voting for Trump in 2016 or 2020. There are things that would stop me from talking about it out loud, which you are free to consider cowardice or some level of a lack of courage, at your discretion. The reason I don't vote is a different vice - laziness.

Nope. That is incorrect. It's not that we "love" the man, it's that we love our country and understand that Trump is fighting to protect it while the other side is trying to destroy it, and half the population is so busy pissing and moaning about how he says things they refuse to look at his accomplishments.

Our politicians, both parties, have been selling us out for decades. A few of them have tried to honor their oath, none were democrats, the few there have been are republicans. But by and large the majority of these politicians were after the same thing - to line their own pockets. The only fight was over which party would be in charge of us once the takeover was complete. While you and others were whining about how he said things and letting the media's narrative lead you around by the nose, Trump was busy kicking their asses and trying to undo the damage they'd done.

Yes, he can be crude. Yes he says too much sometimes. But he gets shit done. He kicks ass and takes names. I guess that's the first time some have experienced that. But it's time you grew up. You (the generic you) have 4 months. Decide whether you want to live in a Venezuela or if you want to keep the US a free nation.
