Another example of TDS occurred this morning at breakfast. I usually have breakfast with about 20 - 30 other working stiffs who are either there after completing 3rd trick, or going on 1sts. Our economy is decent now. A fellow mentioned that the local paper said that unemployment was at it's lowest since 1948, and cited some of Trump's policies for the reason. That caused a small group to take off in rage, not so much for the good news of the unemployment figures, but because the name "Trump" was uttered. I do believe that it's a valid medical condition that TDS causes a portion of the brain to take off in a Flight or Fight situation. I can't explain the rage otherwise. And I don't recall many of my conservative friends throwing such a fit when the name Obama or Clinton was spoken. As I recall, we all sat there, sipping our coffee, and if we said anything it was "That's interesting." |

I have said it before the Democrats think they own the rights to being unethical. In their case it is "The ends justifies the means". Why has not one single democrat in Congress demanded that Biden and son be investigated? |

Okay, sure. But let me ask you this: Do you think the ( ANY) President should be held to a higher ethical standard than Joe Private Citizen? Maybe you don't think so but I do. |

I continue to pray that an alien race comes to this planet and takes all the feral political power brokers away to planet Assholus. I think if all the idiots in Washington DC and around the world were to disappear, we would all wake up the next day knowing what we need to do to survive, and we could take care of our communities without a faceless agency taking their 82.12% cut for administration fees. BTW, if the aliens are carnivores, I'll tell them that Congress and Senate tastes like chicken. Take em all. No limit. |

As others have said, NO ONE has any proof he lied about anything. And consider this: I defy anyone to show me a single multi million/billionaire who hasn't lied, cheated, bent the rules, worked the system, etc. How do you think they got to where they are now? By being a goodie two shoes and owning up every single red cent? Anyone think little ex-mayor emperor doucheburg, who DOUBLED his net worth while in office, paid every single cent he had to? You think bozo bezos, scumbag soros, the crone piglosi, even bill gates, etc etc etc, never worked the tax system in their favor? EVERYONE DOES IT. EVERYONE of them has an entire team of tax lawyers whose sole purpose is to work the system and save their member of the 1% more money. Christ, if hell froze over and I actually started making enough money to worry about, the first thing I'd do is find a way to keep what's mine, mine. Offshore bank accounts, tax lawyer, whatever. |

That's the problem with politics these days. Hardly anything is based on truth. You can't believe anyone in Washington, (which is probably why they have a 16.8% favorable rating). |

Remember when Harry Reid lied about Mitt Romney not filing taxes? Reid admitted later, after the damage was done, that he lied. Not only did he admit it, he was proud of it. When asked about it Reid's comment was "He (Romney) didn't win did he?" This is the same thing the Dems are trying to do to Trump with his taxes. They'll eventually get them and take things out of context, twist the truth and flat out lie to defame the President. And when they're done they'll be proud of doing whatever needed to be done to save the country from the evil Trump. |

I wish this was a joke, but I've been around people who become enraged by the mention of Trump. We recently had a train derailment near Cary OH, and one of our locals gleefully proclaimed it was Trump's fault, "he's f'ing up the rail system". No evidence, no facts, just tossing the name out. (NTSB already ruled it was the crews fault). While I don't like the guy's way of doing business, and I think his speech is inflammatory, I think he has made necessary changes. And if there is one thing he has done is shown us where all the corruption is at. To me, the level of lying and corruption in our government is far more disturbing than The Donald. What really worries me is the folks I know on the left approving of the actions of our reps just to "get a guy". Can't speak for the rest of you, but my g-d representatives have done nothing to help my community, county, or state. However, they love their face time on TV and crowing about getting the other side. FYI, last night I heard an interesting statistic, which was the favorable rating of Congress and Senate dropped to 16.8%. Think about that. We have people in office who don't do anything positive except fight with each other, 16.8% of the people are happy with them, and we have no venue to fire them like we would do to a worker in our business who couldn't produce results! |

Traveler | They would be the ones to provide the proof if being audited was a lie. And being the upper management of the IRS is left leaning with a recent history of bias against the right, especially during the last administration, it would be a no-brainer. But that hasn't happened. Duh | |

MattB4 | So present your evidence. Oh wait... you already admit you have none and are demanding Trump to produce it for you. | |

I don't think any of this will matter anyway. Its all about the economy, jobs and the stock market. If those 3 continue, it will be a landslide. Especially if he continues to build the wall and doesn't cave any further on the 2nd. Which I believe bump stocks taught him a lesson. The leftists have lost their air cover (the MSM). And many of us on here know how important effective targeted air strikes are, or the lack thereof. The vast majority of people do not believe the MSM any more. Most people are going to the net to get all sides of a story and it has eviscerated the cable news networks. Let them continue their imaginary quests to "get" him. The country grows more and more sick of their antics. They are doing far more damage to their cause than we could ever do by presenting logical solutions to our problems. I am enjoying their self-propelled race to oblivion. |

I know the Donald was a guest star on Hart to Hart back in the day.![]() I also know this whole tax thing is just the leftist media “thing to cry about until the next thing” as they make sure that EVERY day, 24/7, on every outlet in every medium, America is told that our President MIGHT be a bad guy. and they’ll prove it......now. Ok.....ummm....NOW. Oh, well......NOW! Crap.....maybe tomorrow. ![]() The brainwashing is real, and people that keep repeating it or helping it gain traction are ignorant, or stupid, or they are complicit with trying to destroy this nation. Choose one. ![]() |

It's like playing the "why?" game with a five year old telling these anti-President "people" what does and does NOT matter. This whole thread been hijacked by algo just because he "feels" that the President is lying. You just admitted, post #37, that you have NO PROOF THAT HE IS LYING. So do us all a favor and shut the hole under your nose. And no, your unsubstantiated "proof" of living in New York for 30 years and "seeing" the man cheat and lie, what, were you in the boardrooms? Did you drive the limos and hear them talk? Maybe you were one of the Bodyguards and heard things? Work in one of his house staffs? No? then STFU with unsubstantial BS. Don't tease us. Tits or GTFO. |

Oh hell, i'm sick and tired of hearing this crap. It's like the boy crying wolf so many times i'm getting to the point I am tuning the crybabies out. At this point I don't care what his taxes are like. Let them keep crying wolf. The opposition voters are gonna get tired of hearing it too and start tuning them out, I hope. If he was doing something shady the IRS would have already been up his ass. They aren't, therefore I don't believe anything is wrong with his taxes. But we're gonna hear a lot of bull about it until election day. I'm gonna be turning the tv off a lot more in the coming year. |

You're 100% correct: I have no proof. I admit that. But I have my suspicions based upon my knowledge of the man. I lived in NYC for 30 years and watched Mr. Trump lie and cheat for decades. A leopard doesn't change his stripes. But again you're right. Its just my opinion. But an opinion that's just as valid as yours. |

MattB4 | The problem is you have no idea if he has lied about it. You simply expect that he has and demand proof that he has not. I hope you expect the same of all politicians whether you like them or not. | |
