You're going to equivocate over a word, released? He released his financials. Period.He didn't release anything. He filed the required financial disclosure form that all presidential candidates must file. He had no choice in doing this, if he wanted to run.
And he should; unless he has done something illegal he is hurting himself more by not releasing them......but if he has done something illegal I think the IRS would have taken action by now.....Republican leaders have said he should release his tax returns.
Of course they would. Big fish! If he did something illegal in his returns the audits, which are what those are for, would find that and he'd be in the news. Especially now.And he should; unless he has done something illegal he is hurting himself more by not releasing them......but if he has done something illegal I think the IRS would have taken action by now.....
That second link is quite the eye opener, especially the comments made by Trump's old accountant.
Clinton's companies should not have been a secret to anyone. They released their tax return and these companies and their profits are clearly shown on the return.And their under audit. He's no obligation to release tax returns for those years when he was a private citizen. His financials are available as he's released those.
Here's a little something Hillary hopes people don't remember I'm sure. It puts her attack on his taxes into perspective. And again she doesn't have a lot of respect for her base or she'd realize they remember this.

The Shared Secret Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump Don’t Want You to Know
Zach Cartwright | April 25, 2016
A new investigation by The Guardian revealed that both Hillary and Bill Clinton registered corporations in Delaware — the former First Lady registered ZFS Holdings, LLC in 2013, just eight days after the end of her tenure as Secretary of State, while her husband registered WJC, LLC to handle his speaking fees. Both companies are registered at 1209 N. Orange Street in Wilmington. The Guardian reports that Mrs. Clinton’s $16 million in speaking fees were sent through ZFS Holdings, LLC in 2014.
Donald Trump, in the meantime, uses the same address for Trump International Management Corporation. Additionally, he has another registered company under the name 40 Wall Street Corporation, and the entity used for the Trump Carousel in Central Park, New York, is also registered at the Corporation Trust Company. The Republican front-runner has a total of 378 corporations registered throughout the tax-friendly state.)More(
Who expressing 'outrage'? I'm not much of an extremist either way. But I do believe the tax codes need to be changed. Frankly I''m for a flat-tax on ALL personal income and removing any rules that allow business to take deductions for assets that are not strictly connected to their industry. Such as a construction company cannot buy a fishing boat, put it in the company name, and claim that it is for employee use or taking clients fishing.If you want to express outrage, call your congressman.....
That was not directed at you....bad post. Just tired of people blaming Trump for what so many of the wealthy do also. If people want to express outrage about it they should call their congressman. Sorry for the confusion. Edited the post.....Who expressing 'outrage'? I'm not much of an extremist either way. But I do believe the tax codes need to be changes.

If one is not in a business that is closely related to fishing, boating, selling boats, fishing outfitter, etc., then the company does not get to buy a boat or yacht and use it as a tax deduction in anyway. That goes for condos at ski resorts or beach front properties, airplanes and leer jets, etc.
No problem, thanks for the clarification.That was not directed at you....bad post. Just tired of people blaming Trump for what so many of the wealthy do also. If people want to express outrage about it they should call their congressman. Sorry for the confusion. Edited the post.....
So, no indication that Trump even know anything about this, correct? No written contract (height of stupidity), no mention about how this verbal agreement was arrived at (phone/email/face), no follow-up verification by email.......This guy seems absolutely incompetent from the word go. I will wait to hear the other side even though the usual suspects won't.
This is old news and disussed early in thread.
We were talking about that 2 days ago.......around here that is old.......LOLOld news....the report is less than 24 hours old...
What's a matter...you don't want face up to the fact that Trump declared a loss of nearly 1 BILLION dollars in the early 90's. Tell us again what a great business man he is.
Was it personal or business bankruptcy that was declared?Wow...900,000,000+$ lost in 1995...I had always figured that he lied about being a great businessman, but I had no idea his failures were so enormous. One can only speculate how big his losses were on the other times he declared bankruptcy.
So what are his supporters claiming as a reason to vote for him now? Everyone that I ever spoke with who supported him believed something along the lines of "he's a great businessman...he'll fix the economy!" Do his supporters even have a reason to vote for him now?

Yeah?....you got inside info?Pretty sure his net worth is down $800m in the past year, too.

No, just asking....do you know?
I believe you are correct about it being business bankruptcy; IIRC personal bankruptcy can only be every 7 years but obviously if you have many businesses any or all could go that route. The articles don't seem to specify which it is......I don't know for sure, but I was under the impression it was a business bankruptcy (every time). There aren't too many billionaires out there as far as personal income goes...
