Trump says he'll release financial records before election, knocks Dems' efforts

[demmiblue]

Source: The Hill

President Trump on Thursday blasted investigators seeking his financial records and said he would release them voluntarily ahead of the 2020 election, although he made a similar pledge in 2016.

“Bob Mueller, after spending two years and 45 million dollars, went over all of my financials, & my taxes, and found nothing. Now the Witch Hunt continues with local New York Democrat prosecutors going over every financial deal I have ever done,” Trump tweeted, referencing an investigation by Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr.

“What they are doing is not legal. But I’m clean, and when I release my financial statement (my decision) sometime prior to Election, it will only show one thing - that I am much richer than people even thought,” Trump added.

[33taw]

[Lochloosa]

[keithbvadu2]

[lagomorph777]

55. I've got nothing, I've got nothing

I made no Roubles, bro.

[eppur_se_muova]

4. Is this from 2016 ?

'Coz that's the same thing he said back then ...

[BigmanPigman]

12. Deja vu

[SmartVoter22]

5. Trump will release financials?

I have only one response... "How many R's in fat chance?"

[Thomas Hurt]

6. When did Mueller go through the pig's financials?

[Merlot]

33. He didn't.

We assumed he had access to trumpfts taxes, but mueller didn't investigate the financial aspects of the case. Something about "scope of investigation" that was given to him.

[scarytomcat]

41. That is right. He was only charged with investigating Russian hacking

we already knew Russia was doing it

[jvill]

7. Hahahahhahahah

The only people dumb enough to believe this certainly work at The Hill.

[Maeve]

9. And pigs will fly in formation over DC when he does

[UpInArms]

10. Release them TODAY

Otherwise this is just another LIE

[BKDem]

53. Exactly. Exactly. Exactly.

But it’s not just another lie, it’s one of the bigger, fatter, most brazen ones. He’s richer than we thought? Not even a Barr summary can pull that off.

[Bromwell]

13. LIAR.. should be chanted at him everywhere he goes, all the time. n/t

[The Liberal Lion]

14. Yeah right!

[Archae]

15. Good quote here...

"All those who believe that, stand on their heads..." Col Blake, MASH

[Bernardo de La Paz]

David Frum tweet:  ‏ "Regular reminder that Donald Trump’s core competency is not dealmaking with powerful counter-parties. It is duping gullible victims."

[bucolic_frolic]

17. 93rd empty promise on tax returns and no one believes transcripts because they are lies

[Grokenstein]

18. Right after he drops that "bombshell revelation"

...about Obama's birth certificate.
Golly, his investigative team sure is taking its time getting back from Hawaii!

[JohnnyRingo]

21. "You wouldn't believe what they're finding".

Literally.

[PSPS]

19. I guess the court case isn't going well, so this is his pathetic attempt to delay/avoid that

[JohnnyRingo]

20. $5 says there will be a new audit.

...or maybe the IRS printer will be down, some excuse why he can't do it.

Hopefully he won't have to release them himself. I wouldn't trust what he supplied anyway.

[Marthe48]

22. Is this like Nixon's secret plan

to get the U.S. out of Vietnam? That he promised to release if he were re-elected?

Who in the hell is naive to the point of thinking anything trumpskie says is true or will happen?

[ProgressDiv]

23. Believing untrue things...

... is how Cult45 pledges its allegiance. In this case, they will double down by believing the same lie twice.

[Marthe48]

56. Yep!

Welcome to D.U. ProgressDiv

[Nitram]

24. Yup. And Trump is also going to stop lying.

[sinkingfeeling]

25. Sure, anything you say, liar.

[peacefreak2.0]

26. One trick pony.

I hate re-runs.

[Harker]

27. "I'm clean" sounds even more crooked than

"I am not a crook" does in retrospect.

[bluestarone]

28. Lying again!

Maybe so that judges will say they won't rule against him? (Surely they will see through this)

[duforsure]

29. Which means he's found out he was going to be ruled against and have to let them be turned over

His statement now is just like he' done before , try to put out a doctored returns to claim his innocence with from a lie. A con man trick he's used many times before, then promote it as the truth with , when he knows it isn't. He does this asap when he has information ahead of the ruling, so did he call Supreme Court Justice Roberts to lean on him for what he wanted and failed? I suspect he did. Or tried to pressure Roberts,and Roberts refused his demand. Telephone records would show if he did this also.

[KPN]

37. +1! Or ...

he's trying to influence the SCOTUS prior to their actual consideration of the appeal -- providing them with an "escape hatch", a "rationale" they can use in their autobiographies to mitigate a decision to uphold his appeal. He's used this tactic many times before as well ... I'm guessing his source for half of these cockamamie tactics come from his nightly consultations with Hannity.

[kacekwl]

30. All written in Sharpie.

$$$$$$$$$.

[getagrip_already]

50. and signed by his whackadoodle doctor......... n/t

[beachbumbob]

31. lol, really who believes that?

why not release them TODAY?

he mistakes all of america to be as dumb as his supporters are.

[Brainfodder]

32. I smell something real foul.

What oh what could it be?

[Sucha NastyWoman]

34. Financials are NOT THE SAME as tax returns

Let’s not get confused here.

Actually, we need both.

[Javaman]

35. cool story, bro. nt

[KPN]

36. Release your Tax Returns asshole!

[Historic NY]

38. Lies all lies.

[Perseus]

39. Where is the proof Muller went through his financials?

I have never heard of that. Does anyone have information on this?

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

40. Just like he was going to release his taxes.

I'll give you a preview of his statement.

"I'm rich. I'm really rich."

[Brainfodder]

42. Still waiting on Melanie's presser to apologize/explain her plagurizing speeches?

Lying clown trying to placate his ignorant base of supporters, when they should be tired from sharping their pitchfork with his name on the tip.

Know who the enemy is.... geeeeeeeez!

It's truly sad the level of artificial hate in this country created/sewn by assholes in power to the meek/weak.

Angle shooting the dumb, this is pathetic.

[WanderingLiberal]

43. The Hill???

I’m a new poster here, but by posting this article from this publication just to point out that it’s a lie, is, itself, an act of spreading misinformation? I don’t want to start a rumble or anything, but I am personally avoiding The Hill until we get a much clearer understanding of the role of John Solomon in spreading Russian propaganda as tested to by Dr. Hill.

[sakabatou]

44. Just like his grades, hm?

[LudwigPastorius]

45. "Trump says he'll..."

Yeah well, he says a lot of stuff and 99% of it is complete horseshit.

[bucolic_frolic]

46. Trump thinks he'll be running in 2020

[riversedge]

47. and no doubt his MAGA fan club believes these #trump LIES

[SWBTATTReg]

48. Another lie...what does this make it 14,001 lies now? NT

[LiberalLovinLug]

49. Uh...then just release then all NOW. Duh

Wouldn't that shut everyone up Donnie? If there's nothing in them but showing how your companies have legally and successfully grown making you a billionaire, then lets see it! Today!

[C_U_L8R]

51. Financial 'statement'

Yeah yeah yeah... we've heard this Trump bullshit before.
This cough-cough 'statement' will be issued by David Dennison, CPA

[pamdb]

52. HaHaHa

If you're stupid enough to believe that,I've got a bridge from Mackinaw City to Mackinac Island I'd
like to sell you. By the way, I'd used tp have an app for The Hill, which I have since deleted.

[Raftergirl]

54. I have a bridge to sell you.

[maxrandb]

57. Stop for a second and realize that this is a "supposed" NEWS site

That actually ran this fucking story!

Just think about that for a fucking second as you weep for the shithole our country has become.

Is this fucking newsworthy? Fuck no!

Is this some kind of new revelation? Fuck no!

Is this something you would believe? Fuck no!

This is nothing more than regurgitating the ramblings of a senile old man. A man who, if you saw them on the street rambling on, you'd offer to help them, or move to the other side of the street.

The Hill is a fucked up turd polishing piece of amphibian shit, but they waste bandwidth on this?

Can't we just go one fucking day without the nonsensical rantings of our drunk, perverted uncle being forced down our fucking throats?

Can we just have a fucking day free of this ignorant fuckstick?

Can we just have a day where I can pretend that this dipshit isn't shitting in the White House?

There's a story out about increased mental health issues in our fucking country.

Shit like this Hill story explains why.

This God Damned "squirio priest fuck" country has lost its God Damned mind.
