    Its a choice. Nobody cares unless somone comes along and says they aren't gonna do it.

    No one changes their vote because of who a candidate might donate money to or lack of donations . At this point irs just an attempt to embarrass and it only solidifies his base

    If I saw a candidate I was going to vote for donate to some nefarious organization, I guarantee I would change my vote (pretty sure I am not alone in that respect). If there were two relatively even candidates, in my opinion, and one was more charitable or donated to organizations I support, I guarantee that would affect my vote.

    judge: trump's argument “repugnant to the nation’s governmental structure and constitutional values.”

    I believe he still has an 'Emergency Appeal' left in the arsenal.

    Clueless as usual.

    The Manhattan District Attorney's Office, led by Cyrus Vance, Jr., is examining hush money paid during the 2016 presidential campaign to two women who alleged having affairs with Trump a decade ago.

    This has nothing to do with the IRS, FBI or CIA.

    I have no idea, but I am sure the tax returns will reveal numerous additional crimes, because that is what criminals do, they commit crimes.

    People don't report crimes in tax returns

    They hide them

    IRS, FBI, CIA, State Department, Office of Inspector General, Department of Defense, NATO, United Nations, Jeff Sessions, Mitt Romney, Andy McCabe, John McCain, Robert Mueller, Ukraine, James Comey, Jim Mattis, John Bolton...

    All instruments of the left.

    Maybe Stalin is a more appropriate comparison for Trump?

    You have no idea how white collar crimes work. Criminals have been caught on tax returns. You don't report "did illegal deal" on your tax returns, but you report income, deductions, etc. that reveal the truth.

    So what category does hush money get expensed in?

    We already know he gave Cohen CASH to pay her

    This isnt white collar crime

    What white collar crimes are you an expert that youre referring to?

    Correct.

    It would "reveal" crimes by showing discrepancies in tax returns vs other financial reporting requirements.

    Not sure what your underlying point is in this back and forth?
