IRS whistleblower claims Trump tried to improperly influence IRS audit of his taxes
- Thread starter Syriel
- Start date
Right, he's the chair of the ways and means committee and had to be dragged kicking and screaming to subpoena trumps tax returns after months of inaction.
He likely won't have that option with this whistleblower account since Nadler will be the one with final say on the articles of impeachment.
It's probably for the best that they're playing this one quietly and keeping their cards close to their chest. I imagine most of the personally damaging stuff to Trump will be here. The less the Trump supporters follow it because Stupid Nerd Numbers, the more they can get on with their jobs.
I knew I had a negative association with that guy's name for a reason.
I remember when he said he was audited the last 12 years in a row or something and no one really followed up on that.
Trump had basically burned all of the bridges with most people that helped him get elected.
And most people from the White House had all bailed out & or had gotten fired by Trump himself.
Trump thought he was Monty Burns.
In reality, he was the man trying to eat faaaaaaar too much in Monty Python's Meaning of Life.
I hope this impeachment period reaches a point to where it will become historically referred to as "The Dragging of Donald J Trump"
Say what you want, but Trump has done more for whistles and the whistle families than Obama or Clinton ever could.
OP

I'll admit, given his extreme efforts to keep the taxes hidden, I am curious to know what's inside.
Is Trump covering up some illegal activity?
Or is he just afraid that his devout followers will realize he's not as rich as he claims to be?
Probably a bit of both.
But remember, Cohen said in his testimony that Trump would UNDERvalue his properties for tax purposes, but OVERvalue them for insurance purposes. Which is fraud.
I honestly don't understand what is giving people this much hope...
It's as if all the hundreds of other scandals and crimes didn't happen over the last three years...
His base will not turn on him, ergo the GOP will not turn on him.
Both.
Except this is even bigger than most of the scandals that he has has during being president.
We don't need his base. All we need are the Independent voters to go along with the Democrat voters.
Plus the GOP senators will be in a lose-lose scenario. If they refuse to remove Trump, a lot of people will vote against them.
If they do remove Trump, his base will turn on them.

It's a little depressing to think that even with financial crimes, the evangelicals would pass it off as "Well, he broke man's laws, not God's." But when he breaks God's laws too, like adultery commandments and such, they call God, not Trump, wrong. It's really crazy how hostile evangelicals are to their own religion when it gets in the way of praising Trump.
It's cause Dems are actually taking action and all the GOP talking points are falling flat. Even the media isn't having it. There's also no turning back for Democrats with this. They have to move forward with impeachment. Every other time they've been able to walk it back. Not saying it will lead yo removal, but it's certainly different feeling than all the other scandals.
Details are finally starting to come out about this today.
If Mnuchin got caught for this *chef's kiss*
How many Trump appointees are at the Treasury Department anyway?
