Suck it up anti-American scum....another Trump middle finger to the party of INFANTICIDE!!!!

Democrats in the House have been demanding six years’ worth of POTUS Donald Trump’s tax returns because they say they need them in order to perform their ‘oversight’ role regarding — something — but the president has so far refused to cave to the demands.

Last week, the Treasury Department also refused to comply, citing case law and other constitutional provisions that preclude Congress’ right to review the tax returns of any U.S. citizen (which, of course, the president is not just any U.S. citizen).

Treasury’s refusal led House Democrats to huff and puff, with Judiciary Committee chair Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) threatening further actions such as holding more Trump administration members in contempt.

But now the Justice Department has spoken as well and has come out in defense of the president and the Executive Branch’s separation of power in backing Treasury.

Maybe Trump should offer a compromise, like releasing HIS tax returns if the Democrats in Congress will release THEIRS...

Think the Democrats would be willing to take him up on that???
