Now they need to make all of CONGRESS turn in all of their tax returns.

Honestly, all politicians should have their taxes publicized. That way people can actually look at the information for themselves instead of relying in super biased media outlets. Also, term limits in Congress please.

[cclothier]

Anyone that holds a public office should have to show their tax returns.

The most important thing that American citizens should have an accounting of is every single donation given to our politicians, all of them. Something reasonable such as all donations over $1000 need to be documented and published for all to see. We have the right to know who has bought our politicians and who they are truly working for. We should be able to just go to a web site and see this information as that would help us in determining if we really wanted to vote for that person.

Every politicians’ tax returns should be made public.

How does this set a dangerous precedent when every other president in history has released their taxes 😳

[Igorsov]

May we now see tax returns of all other elected politicians?

[scottprather]

I agree all politicians serving in public office should have there tax records made public. But This won't stop corruption or ignorant people voting against their own interests

[sskunky]

To hold any kind of public office you must submit all tax returns and be completely transparent in all financial matters all of the time and this applies to all family members.

dude actually got poorer, while other politicians got richer wth.

[HowDoU]

Ok but why just him? Show all of their tax returns

[ChosenOne]

But But But But But What about Hillarys emails?

[shawnabeaty]

What’s worse? Using the tax codes that are used by every politician or rigging legislation to benefit your families stock holdings? I mean come on be fair!

[chinsanity]

All presidents’ tax returns should become public

[melrosedehart]

Politicians are not required to show tax returns until now that Trump took it to the supreme court to set precedents, now politicians will have to show real tax returns upon request.

*Yet we are still waiting to see Epstein's Client List.*

[MatteoFett]

That he uses the same tax codes that all politicians agreed to and their donors use to avoid paying taxes - way to go, Sherlocks

For many in your comment section..
Many of the Presidents do release their taxes and that of their spouses as well.
But this one feller kept on telling lies that he was under audit and as a result of that he was unable to release his taxes..And that was not true..
Then as if that was not bad enough, , That's the very same person that asked the IRS to audit Comey and his deputy..
whilst his own was not straight up neither..
So in all fairness, , whilst he was asking the IRS to take a close look at
Comey and his deputy, , Andrew, , he should have also asked the IRS to take a close look at his own as well..
Do unto others as he would like done unto him..
And where were the corrupt Republicans to hold a press conference and denounced their god when he asked the IRS to audit Comey and his deputy..

Why does everyone care about other peoples taxes? How low lol

Tax evasion is a crime, tax avoidance is a art. If you could legally avoid taxes you would also.
