    No, because it opens up to petty discussions that have nothing to do with domestic or foreign policy. You know, the stuff that the administration and legislators are supposed to be working on?

That always comes back and bite them in the ass later. Once this can of worms is opened, every politician demanding Trumps tax returns will in fact find out they are as vulnerable as he might be. Just my thoughts.
    Trump isn't just a common citizen, he is President, and according to Barr and his Justice Dept he can't be indited, so how is he not above the law?

    And Americans want to see Trump's income tax returns, the longer he keeps obstructing, the more they believe he is hiding something, the "I'm being audited" facade ain't working

    He sure is just a common citizen who was elected President. Once again every politician is. Folks like you need to stop making them into something they are not. That is one the reasons this country is getting fucked up so quickly.

    "There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."

    This is why I am on onboard with this. All of our politicians make laws and decisions we have to live and abide by. Somewhere along the line, they have put themselves above those laws. They went from common citizens doing things for the benefit of other common citizens to they are royalty and we are serfs. Screw that.

    That DOJ guidance was formulated long before Trump took office and way before Barr was confirmed, anchovies. Christ, you're stupid.

    It was first implemented in 1973 and reaffirmed on October 6, 2000. Who was the president then?

    If I'd said the president writes DOJ policy you'd have a point.

    Since I didn't, you don't.
