How to react to GOP indignation about the public release of Trump's tax returns?

Loud laughing.

Not a giggle or a chuckle---real side-splitting LAUGHTER; think "guffaws"; think tears rolling down cheeks.

Schadenfreude, thy name is "Donald"!

and he was convinced that Trump was going to fix the IRS so that his (the Trumper's) tax return would stop being audited and he would get his tax refund very quickly. No idea how that connection was made in his mind.

The MAGAnauts are all "What about Biden's or Obama's or Clinton's tax returns?" Fortunately, there are a few people who reply that those tax returns have already been released, and if the MAGAnauts cared to actually look around, they could find them online. There is a notable lack of follow-up from the whatabouters.

Even though Hunter is not a public official. When they give their GOP=approved talking points, ask why that shouldn't apply to TFG.

What I would like to see is public disclosure of the tax returns of Federal Judges and Supreme Court Justices.
