The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Steve,

If the IRS can illegally leak confidential tax return information or the returns themselves, or parts of them, in violation of the law, without the taxpayer's express consent to do so, and if they can do it to a President or a presidential candidate, they can do it to any one of us.

You leftists are so immersed in your group think reflexive anti-Trump responses to pretty much everything, that you never seem to think about anything in a critically evaluative way.

Sorry that you're upset that Trump chose not to follow a so-called "norm" that is not in any way a legal requirement, i.e., a candidate for president voluntarily releases his tax returns. If you don't like that then don't vote for that candidate.

Did you know how that even started? When Nixon was accused of corruption, I believe as VP for Eisenhower, he made a big showing of releasing his tax records to show he was not a corrupt politicians.

I guess that really didn't age well, did it.
