Why do Dems care so much about what Trump paid in taxes? ?
Who here pays more than they have to in taxes VOLUNARILY? Everyone in America takes all the tax breaks they can legally get, and Trump is no exception. Can you honestly say that you would voluntarily pay extra taxes you don't need to pay? If you said you would, you're a liar. You have have problems with the tax code, but that's something you have to take up with the legislative branch. To pretend Trump is a bad guy for taking tax breaks he's legally able to take is moronic and hypocritical.

I know, right, you would think it would be Republicans whining about Chump not paying taxes.

You answered it best: "To pretend Trump is a bad guy for taking tax breaks he's legally able to take is moronic and hypocritical. ". They're moronic and hypocritical. It's kind of been their whole thing for the last 20 years or so.

We aren't talking about a private citizen, and we aren't talking about legitimate deductions. I'd want to know if any of those deductions were illegal (70 grand for hairstyling??). I also want to know who gave him $400 million in loans and if those loans could potentially compromise him in his official duties as president.

How do you know Trump paid all the tax he was supposed to pay? How do you know his tax reduction strategies were legal?
Even the IRS doesn't know that yet because they are still auditing him. And since Trump is the IRS Commissioner's boss, it's kind of like asking the fox to guard the hen house.
If Trump has done nothing wrong as you insist, releasing his tax returns like everyone else would clear this up.
Trump has surrounded himself with crooks and has been embroiled in a pretty large number of shady financial dealings over the years. There is zero reason to believe his tax returns aren't shady too.
Trump is a known liar and cheater...everything from his wives to his charities and probably his taxes too.

My concern is not that he only paid 750 bucks in taxes while lying about it. .
My concerns are that he is such a horrible businessman that he lost $400 million,
that he is running the Country the exact same way,
and that he OWES $421to banks run by Russia (Putin)
and THAT is why, I assume, he will do what ever he is told.

“Trump, who has never had political aspirations, is gonna structure his financial life entirely differently. He’s gonna go for every deduction he can get that the law allows. He’s gonna use tax lawyers to put together a return and a financial life that will be legal under the eyes of the IRS, but it is not designed for public consumption, and it’s not designed to help him go further in his business...If Trump had been breaking the law with his taxes all these years, he would have been nabbed at it long ago, folks. He would have been found and tracked down. I’m sure he’s audited constantly. If there was something untoward or illegal, it would have been found by the time he’s 70. ” -Rush Limbaugh

Because it will be shown that either
- Trump did not make the money he claims, and therefore was presenting himself incorrectly to investors, which constitute fraud, OR
- Trump avoided paying taxes by fudging his reports, inventing fake deductions, and so on, which constitute tax fraud
Unless he did both.
Either way, he is a crook and will end up in jail.

Because it proves he is a crook and a liar and that his whole image is a lie.
And that Trump's America has been taken for a ride.
We told you suckers form the start what he was.
