In reply to the discussion: Report: Trumps 2005 Taxes Revealed [View all]INdemo
(6,994 posts)27. I think this was a set up to give the
White House a talking point for the Trump deplorables that this was just another act of interference by the Democrats.
First of all with that much earned income and expenses there would have to have included a schedule 'E,Schedule A and profit loss statement.
This was bait put out there by the White House and the producers of MSNBC fell for it,
Nothing to show except a bunch of numbers of supposedly income and taxes paid.
NBC would be wise not to ask about this at press briefing tomorrow becasue this is exactly what Spicer wants.

Weird that Wikileaks can get Top Secret CIA files and can't hack Trump's taxes

The media cover many stories of course. But there's only so much oxygen for the talking heads.
