    As I have been critical of people who engage in 'whataboutisms' and 'but Obama', 'but Hillary', it would be disingenuous for me to say 'but Fox'. What I would like to know, however, is if you include Fox in the lamestream media?

    If not mistaken, it's against the law to make other people's tax return available to others without their permission, than the IRS. Do you think after having all those conservative groups audited, that Obama wouldn't ask the IRS to do Trump's, knowing how much people wanted to know? You can bet he did and you can bet if they could have found any cheating it would have been all over the news. Just plain common sense will tell you that would happen. They want Trump so bad, they would never pass that opportunity up. Now if he used tax loop holes to get out of paying a lot of taxes, the IRS couldn't come out and tell us that.

    Yet right wingers expected Obama to turn over everything about his life down to his Kindergarten finger paintings. Nope no double standard there at all.

    I am sure they have already investigated it. I heard about this one bank over a year ago. Let them investigate.

    It was Obama who said to us his administration would be the most transparent than any other in history. He has been just the opposite. No medical records. No records on his college grant. No college records. Took years for him to release his long form birth certificate. So trying to make it look like the Right were being unreasonable for what they ask to see is a little childish.

    No everyone has met with foreigners while campaigning and yes everyone accepts dirt on opponents, let's get a little real here, for once.

    Yeah? But rarely both at the same time....

    I'm just following the lead of Sloppy Steve... he's real (I think)

    “Even if you thought that this was not treasonous, or unpatriotic, or bad ****, and I happen to think it’s all of that, you should have called the FBI immediately.”

    Might be the best thing he's ever said... Take that back.... Easily the best thing he's ever said...

    The 5th Amendment doesn't say "Except Trump".

    Since you won't post your banking and financial information here, and you can't be forced to, you should accept that the same privilege is enjoyed by other citizens.

    There is no evidence that Trump is guilty of anything. None. Zero..And plenty of haters have been looking.

    Looking into a person's private records for the expressed purpose is to find a crime that you don't know about is the definition of "Witch Hunt".

    Something else we all know. When Witch Hunts start, they don't stop until they find something it make something up. If Trump gave his tax returns, Democrats will demand something else, then something else. Then His wife's records. Then his kids'. Then his business associates'. Then his neighbors'.

    Hate is a self-licking lollipop.

    And were those pleas material to collusion? Or, were they process crimes, rolled out whenever the scrutiny of the Muller team tactics were exposed?

    Hint: I'm pretty sure that the sentence for conspiracy against the United States is longer than 1 day...

    Trump Fish Food.... still the only provable example of the media intentionally submitting a misleading story, then not correcting it or apologizing for the error...

    There's your Fake News folks... Pretty cheesy move, but that's about it...

    They don't know but you can bet the IRS and Obama knows and is not allowed to release that information without Trump's permission. The only way it could come out is the IRS found fraud and brought him up on charges and took it to court. Obviously they didn't find any of that. Unless of course they charge him later. I'm sure Trump didn't disclose it because he didn't want to let out how little taxes he paid because of tax loopholes.[/QUOTE]

    And the secret meeting in the Seychelles with Betsy DeVos's brother...and Flynn's kid who owned a firm that may have been involved in hacking...and Roger's Stone's bizarre relationship with Wikileaks...

    And most of all, racist trump's constant soft fondling of Putin's man-parts at every conceivable opportunity.

    versus paying 12mil for Russian intelligence and passing it to the fbi saying it's real. That's the core issue the left has zero problem with Hils paying 12mil for fake Russian intelligence and starting this whole damn thing on BS, yet have a major problem with Jr meeting with a Russian thinking he's going to get something yet it turns out to be about Russian adoption and now your upset he didn't call the fbi about meeting with a Russian over adoption. It's absurd and the double standard is obvious. This was a political stunt that the media took and ran with and searched every nook and cranny in the world to find something yet came up with nothing. I call it like I see it and this was the biggest political hatchet job ever all because you lost an election, I have zero respect for that BS.

    Now go look at Hilary's ties to Russia, or Hilary's campaign manager owning a firm that lobbies for the Ukraine. You wonder why they went to the Ukrainian embassy for the secret meeting. I would respect your opinion if it wasn't dripping with double standard BS. Oh and the rest of your post is absurd and I'm being nice.
