    Sure, but not if he wants to be President, Americans have an expectation that their leaders aren’t hiding something that effects them personally or as citizens

    Why?

    And the IRS is making a case, why he is being audited

    It takes time to prepare a lawsuit, if that's his intent.

    He's not "taking a beating", AFAIK.

    Are you going to claim that "polls" say he is?

    The same people why published their toxic tax tale with no proof are the one who promote opinion polls.

    If the failing NYT didn't make it all up, where is their proof?

    Agreed it's curious. Doesn't necessarily mean "collaboration". Possible the story leaked and both campaigns knew it was coming. Also possible Biden, who was going to release his returns anyway, planned to do so before the debate.

    On the other hand, what is there to be upset about if the story is a "Nothingburger" as we keep hearing.

    I have no such expectation, and his personal finances don't affect me at all.

    How do I know? Millions of people are audited. That's not a "case", it's an audit.

    That the Left is driving hard for burning down America so that UTOPIA can arise from the ashes by magic.
    I choose my own words like the Americans of olden times........before this dystopia arrived.

    Time, he has an army of accountants and attorneys to include the Attorney General, try to tell us they need days to put together something to challenge the NYT

    Ah, the expose revealing Trump doesn’t pay income tax like the rest of America certainly isn’t working in Trump’s behalf. And the narrative in the piece explains their proof, Trump’s tax returns coupled with available financial records, and you can rest assure billy barr has already checked how the NYT came across the information

    Bottom line, Trump wants to end it in a minute all he has to do is release his income tax returns like other candidates do, why hasn’t he

    I’d it is covering multiple years it is

    Trump’s doesn’t have “an attorney,” he has an army of attorneys, best money can buy, plus “fixers,” like billy barr, resources like that don’t wait

    As I said, no he doesn’t, no one said he had to prove the NYT wrong, but he wants the story to go away so it doesn’t hurt him politically, he does, which he could do in minutes by releasing his tax returns

    So you say. The failing NYT has only made unproven allegations. You believe them because you want to, not because there is compelling evidence.

    You're incredibly credulous. A narrative claiming to possess proof without showing it proves nothing.

    How's this?

    'I saw documents that detailed your mom's history of arrests for prostitution, and my analysis of the documents revealed hundreds of convictions for knowingly infecting her clients with AIDS. I assure you that I obtained the documents legally, but I won't show them to you, to protect my sources'.

    Does that appear credible to you?

    Now, compare that with the toxic tale the failing New York Times printed, and spot the similarities.

    I'll understand if you don't want to answer the question, of course.

    No, he told us back in 2016 that doing the exact thing the NYT has exposed made him “smart,” and the bottom line is that if the NYT is lying Trump could discredit them and end it all by just releasing his tax returns, Americans want to see his tax returns, yet he refuses, says it aall

    And I already showed your silly personal narrative irrelevant above, repeating it doesn’t validate it any further

    The failing NYT hasn't exposed anything. They made some claims without showing proof that they are true. They refuse to show any evidence.

    No, you didn't.

    I said I'd understand if you don't want to answer the question, and I do.

    But there's no logical way that Slow Joe's mercenary merchandising minions could have known that the failing New York Times was going to print an unverified toxic tale of Trump's taxes out of millions of other potential "news" stories likely to occur on a given day...unless they had advance notice.

    Collusion.
    Still no proof that the ad went out five minutes after the story broke. Just a lot of deflection to Act Blue, etc.

    Is it possible you could write a less irrelevant reply? Probably not.

    That's a separate issue. Take it up with OP.

    Just a few hours after the release of the report on Sunday, the former vice president’s campaign started selling merchandise – T-shirts, buttons, and stickers – that say “I paid more income taxes than Donald Trump.”

    https://www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-campaign-quickly-capitalizes-on-trump-taxes-report

    That smacks of foreknowledge, IMO.
